distance back from the front of the insert; 3) perpendicular to the floor (use the top panel, if necessary, to
judge alignment. The Freedom may require slight adjustment of the mounting angle. Tighten the screws that
hold the side panels in place.

Insulation Installation (required only for face seal installations)
1. With the insert drawn 6" from the fireplace, glue the insulation strip included with the surround panel kit to
the back of the panels using RTV silicon or stove gasket cement. The insulation should be installed so it
overlaps the fireplace opening to form a seal between the panels and the fireplace face. Let the silicon or
cement dry.
2. Push the insert into the fireplace, allowing the insulation to form a seal between the panels and the
fireplace. Use a screwdriver to tuck any exposed insulation behind the panels.
