Cool install! You will love the stove it has served me well. May want to correct the title to F45.
 
That's a clean install, nice looking, and ready to heat.
Tell us more about the alcove installation and steps taken to honor clearances or did the space already have the required 50.25" width? Was this a ZC fireplace beforehand?

PS: Title updated. I added alcove install to make it easier to find in a search. This is a common question for ZC replacement and the F45 makes a good solution.

Thanks for the title fix. This was a new construction and I had them build the alcove for the stove. I’ve always put wood stoves in my previous homes this time I just had it built like I wanted.
