C. Install the Refractory
We recommend two installers for hearth stone and refrac- tory installation!
•Remove back refractory from outside of fireplace by bending tabs up and lifting refractory out of brackets. See Figure 4.5. Bend tabs back down out of the way. See Figure 4.6. Do not remove screws or brackets from fireplace. If brackets are removed, fill holes in outer shell with screws. Repeat this process to remove side refractories.
