firebox framing

Firebox framing can be built before or after the appliance is set in place. Refer to Figure 2 for fireplace and framing dimensions. The framing headers may rest on the top of the firebox standoffs. Do not bring headers below top of standoffs. NOTE: When planning your framing and instal- lation, keep in mind that your gas line can come in on the right or left side of the firebox (as you are facing it) and your electricity will come in on the right side.

The firebox may be installed directly on a combustible floor or raised on a platform of an appropriate height. When the firebox is installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other combustible material, other than wood flooring, the firebox shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the enclosure.
