Framing
Fireplace framing can be built before or after the replace is set
in place. Framing should be positioned to accommodate wall
covering and replace facing material. The replace framing
should be constructed of 2 x 4 lumber or heavier. The framing
headers may rest on the replace standoffs. Refer to Figure 13
for minimum framing dimensions.
CAUTION: MEASURE FIREPLACE DIMENSIONS AND VERIFY
FRAMING METHODS, AND WALL COVERING DETAILS BEFORE
FRAMING CONSTRUCTION BEGINS.

Framing dimension "A" includes a 12 in. (304 mm)
clearance for standoffs on rebox. After installing rebox
into framing, the nished wall surface must cover the
12 in. (304mm) opening above the rebox. Board provided
with replace.
ATTENTION: If a base or mantel is not used and the appliance is
installed directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible material other
than wood ooring, it shall be installed on a metal or wood panel
extending the full width and depth of the appliance. The vertical
dimension in Figure 13 must be adjusted when a metal or wood
panel is placed beneath the appliance.
CAUTION: If the joints between the nished wall and the replace
surround (top and sides) are sealed, a 300°F minimum sealant
material must be used. These joints are not required to be sealed.
Only non-combustible material (using 300°F minimum adhesive if
needed), can be applied as facing to the replace surround.
Finishing
Finish the walls with the material of your choice. Figure 4 on page 8
shows the minimum vertical and corresponding maximum horizontal
dimensions of mantels or other combustible projections above the
top front edge of the replace. Only non-combustible materials may
be used to cover the metal replace face.
