For wall-mounted installation, the fireplace is secured directly to the wall surface, similar to hanging a picture frame. Ensure the wall can support the weight of the unit and that mounting hardware is securely fastened into wall studs.

3.2 Recessed Installation
For a seamless look, the fireplace can be recessed into a custom-built wall opening. This method requires precise measurements and construction to ensure a proper fit and adequate ventilation.
Steps:
- Construct a wooden frame within the wall according to the fireplace dimensions (refer to Figure 3.2 and the full manual for exact measurements).
- Ensure there is sufficient clearance around the unit for air circulation.
- Carefully slide the fireplace into the prepared opening.
