Installation, Fuel, and Compatibility
Install only in a compatible outdoor enclosure with the correct liquid propane supply.
The manufacturer catalog identifies enclosure ventilation on at least two sides, a minimum 50% free air space, a minimum 2-inch bottom clearance, and size-dependent combustible clearances for the square flat insert family.
Installation safety: These are family-level guidelines, not a substitute for the current model-specific manual or applicable local codes. Have gas and electrical work performed by qualified professionals where required.
Enclosure Planning
The enclosure must be planned around more than the visible pan dimensions.
Ventilation, drainage, structural support, surrounding materials, access, and required clearances need to be coordinated with the exact insert.
Liquid Propane Supply
This exact SKU is configured for Liquid Propane and is specified for a small-tank LP application.
Do not substitute another fuel configuration unless the manufacturer specifically permits it for this exact product and the required approved components and procedures are used.
Ventilation
The manufacturer information for this square flat insert family identifies ventilation requirements for the enclosure.
Do not cover or obstruct required ventilation openings with decorative finishes, storage areas, landscaping materials, or other enclosure components.
Drainage and Water Management
The square flat insert family is described as using raised burner hubs and weep holes for water mitigation.
The complete outdoor enclosure should still be planned so water does not become trapped around the fire feature or interfere with the components.
Clearances and Surrounding Construction
Clearance requirements depend on the insert size, installation conditions, surrounding construction, and manufacturer's instructions.
Do not apply clearance measurements from another HPC model or another pan size to this 18-inch configuration.
