Brick Installation
Installation of brick should be done after the fireplace is placed in a permanent location.
The brick housing panels are already installed in the firebox. Each housing is stamped with a letter (full size bricks are not stamped). These letters will help identify the brick when installing. It is impor- tant to install these bricks exactly as instructed. Press the brick firmly into the brick housing until it snaps. The groove line on the side of the brick will come in contact with the flange on the brick housing. This secures the brick into the housing. See Figure 20.
The bricks are packaged in four separate boxes. These boxes are labeled by sections of the fire- box.
Box #1 - Hearth Panel
Box #2 - Rear Panel
Box #3 - Left or Right Panel Box #4 - Left or Right Panel
Install the bricks one section at a time starting with the hearth panel followed by the rear panel and then the left or right panel. It is important to install the bricks in sequence. Note: The left and right panels have identical bricks. Please note, full size bricks are NOT stamped.

Installing Brick "S"
Use brick “S” if an optional gas line is installed. Mount brick “S” as shown in Figure 21. It is important that the knockout hole is in its proper location. The knockout hole on brick “S” should align with the hole on the brick housing.
