Locating Your Outdoor Fireplace
It is important when selecting a location for your fireplace to ensure clearances to adjacent combustibles
are met. This appliance is intended for installation on an outdoor patio or in your yard. It is highly
recommended that this appliance be installed in a sheltered area (following the guidelines outlined
below). Direct wind will cause an erratic flame and possible pilot or main burner outage. An erratic
flame could also lead to excessive carboning (black soot), this condition is not a safety issue but is visually
undesirable.
Note: When choosing a location for your fireplace, care must be taken to avoid areas where excessive
moisture or running water may be a problem.
Any enclosure (shelter) in which the appliance is used must comply with one of the following:
With walls on all sides, but at least one permanent opening at ground level and no overhead cover.
Within a partial enclosure which includes an overhead cover and no more than two sidewalls. These
sidewalls may be parallel, as in a breezeway, or at right angles to each other.
Within a partial enclosure which includes an overhead cover and three sidewalls, as long as 30 percent
or more of the horizontal periphery of the enclosure is permanently open.
