fireplace framing

Firebox framing can be built before or after the appliance is set in place. Refer to Figure 2 for firebox and framing dimensions. The framing headers may rest on the top of the firebox standoffs.

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.

NOTE

COLD CLIMATE INSULATION

If you live in a cold climate, seal all cracks around your appliance, and wherever cold air could enter the room, with noncombustible material. It is especially important to insulate the outside chase cavity between the studs and under the floor on which the appliance rests, if the floor is above ground level.
