least two opposing sides (2 vents total) at a minimum size of 18 sq.
inches each (Example: 3”x 6” or larger). Installation of the vents in the
mid to lower area of the enclosure is recommended. Ventilation allows
for heat and or residual fuel to escape. Failure to properly vent enclosure
may result in the fire-pit overheating or explosion. Overheating could
lead to heat damage to internal components. Some enclosures may
require more ventilation based on material, size, and extended use. The
vent may work as a drain as well when installed at bottom sidewall to
prevent water build up.
Warning: The interior void space of the enclosure surrounding the
valve box cannot be filled with any material (gravel, crushed rock,
concrete, etc.)- It is a requirement to have a minimum of 6” under the
valve box for proper ventilation.
Warning: Select materials that are non-combustible in both initial
installations as well as over time.
Warning: The Fireplace assembly should be recessed a minimum of
2.25” from the top of the enclosure to protect flame from being blown
out. Some areas may require more- 4 to 6” is not uncommon.
WARRANTY REQUIREMENT: The enclosure must be constructed on a
stable surface. The weight of the Fireplace must be supported by the pan
and not by any control/valve box. For electronic ignition models the
control/valve box must be above grade with adequate drainage to
prevent water damage to the controls inside the box.
• Make sure that the structure is level. Blocks, bricks or L-brackets
can be used to build a support ledge for the system plate.
•
Warming Trends recommends that the plate is recessed on trough
(linear), and large round products as illustrated below.
