Note: It is acceptable to use a silicone sealant with a minimum of 300ºF continuous exposure rating to adhere drywall to lower cover panel.

Figure 13.3 Finishing Details

CAUTION! Risk of Glass Damage and Cuts! DO NOT drill or install any type of screw or fastener into the lower cover panel. Sharp screw or fastener tips may penetrate and break the glass or cause cuts.

Note: Refer to Section 13.C regarding installation details associated with the Inside and Overlap Fit methods.

The SLR-B must be fi nished using either the Tonic or Martini decorative fronts. See Figures 13.12 and 13.13. The final fi replace installation can be accomplished by either the Overlap Fit or Inside Fit method. Reference Section 13.C regarding installation details associated with the Inside Fit and Overlap Fit methods.

It is acceptable to pre-drill holes and use self-tapped screws in the factory-installed non-combustible board to attach non-combustible backer board for tile, marble, etc. Refer to Figure 13.3 for acceptable screw location and screw length requirements.

Self-tapping screws up to one inch long can be installed through the nailing tab and outer 3 inch edges of the factory-installed non-combustible board to secure the drywall adjacent to the factory-installed non-combustible board. See Figure 13.3.

Do not drill or install screws which may penetrate the lower cover panel as this will restrict required access to the glass, battery-back-up, and remote receiver. See Figure 13.3.

The appliance is designed to accept 1/2 in. wall sheathing materials such as drywall, plywood, wood composites, or non-combustible materials. The type of material used depends whether the installation is an Inside or Overlap Fit Method. Refer to Section 13.C regarding installation details associated with the Inside and Overlap Fit methods

The factory-supplied non-combustible board must be used in all installations. It must be directly attached to structural framing adjacent to the appliance. Screw fas- teners should be installed in the pilot holes provided in the outer perimeter of the non-combustible board. See Figure 13.3.

The factory-supplied board is designed such that its edg- es will be at the approximate center of the adjacent fram- ing, assuming it is 1-1/2 in. nominal thickness. This will allow the wallboard joints to occur on the center of the framing where the panels can be fastened properly. If the framing thickness is less than 1-1/2 in. nominal, such as with formed steel systems, then it may be necessary to adjust the adjacent framing dimensions so that the non- combustible board and wallboard joints are centered on the framing.
