When you receive your fireplace, decide on the location where you would like to install it. Since it does not require a chimney or gas line like vented gas fireplaces or electric fireplaces, you can choose the spot you desire most. Once you select your location, easily assemble and install your fireplace. Most Bio Flame fireplaces are ready to use straight from the box, but you may have to do some simple assembling. If your fireplace requires any additional hardware or instructions, they will be provided in your box.
