Product overview
Majestic Products 36" Sovereign Wood Fireplace SA36 is a traditional wood-burning fireplace offered in radiant and circulating configurations. Select the exact construction type before planning accessories or the hearth.
Key features
- Traditional brick-pattern refractory interior.
- Radiant or circulating construction with model-specific installation provisions.
Included components
Refractory, firescreen, grate and attic insulation shield are included.
Required components
A compliant hearth extension, approved SL300 chimney with termination and noncombustible finishing materials are required separately.
The separate chimney air kit is required for Canadian installations.
Optional accessories
The outside combustion-air system and approved glass doors are optional. These options do not eliminate the chimney or hearth requirements.
A separately installed compatible gas log lighter or decorative gas appliance is optional. Vented gas appliance input may not exceed the manual’s 100,000 BTU/hr limit; this is not the wood fireplace’s rated heat output. Follow the gas appliance certification, shutoff and open-damper requirements. Unvented installations have separate manual restrictions, including fully open glass doors during operation and retention of the chimney. Never select a gas burner and log assembly without verifying their exact compatibility and fuel configuration.

Installation and safety notes
SA36C is the circulating model and SA36R is the radiant model. Choose the construction type before ordering. The optional FK23 fan belongs to the circulating model; do not select it for the radiant model. The circulating manual lists the JK9 junction box as included and fan speed control as optional.
Hearth height differs by appliance construction: the circulating manual allows a maximum finished raised hearth height of 2 inches when the fireplace is on the floor; the radiant manual specifies 8-1/8 inches. A higher hearth requires the fireplace to be raised appropriately. Use the exact C or R manual for the complete hearth and platform arrangement rather than applying one model’s detail to the other.
The chimney allows no more than two offset/return pairs, no offsets greater than 30 degrees, and no more than 20 feet of pipe between an offset and return. Install the route-specific supports, firestops, insulation shields, flashing and termination. Keep all required air spaces free of insulation and maintain access and clearance around openings. Installation must follow the exact manufacturer documentation and applicable codes.
