FIREPLACE

ENCLOSURE FRAMING

As per the diagram, the framing of the main enclosure should not infringe on the area above the fi replace to the ceiling level. The rear and side walls as well as the face above the fi replace must not extend into the area above the unit. The only structure allowed above the unit is on the stand-offs at the front of the unit supporting the header.

The enclosure walls can be framed using any suitable material (2x4 - 2x6 studs, plywood, gyproc, etc.), Normally, framing will be set back to allow Non-Combustible Material to be flush with the front of the fireplace.

There is framing only on the front of the unit. When framing in the header (directly above the fi replace) DO NOT bring any combustible material lower than the top of the stand-offs. Framing header may be positioned on end directly on top of the front fi replace stand-offs. Be sure to seal the space between the fi replace and the enclosure above and on either side of the unit with Wonderboard, Durock or other similar non-combustible sheeting to prevent hot air from entering the enclosure.

C A U T I O N : O N LY N O N - C O M B U S T I B L E M AT E R I A L LIKE EXPANDED METAL OR CONCRETE BOARDS SUCH AS WONDERBOARD AND DUROCK, ETC. MAY BE USED IN THE SPACE BETWEEN THE UNIT AND THE FRAMING IN FRONT OF THE UNIT ONLY.
