8. Repeat the previous two steps to
a height of 5 layers above the roof,
checking that the layers remain level.
Glue the 5th layer down with
landscape glue.
9. Install the two-piece fireplace cap
as indicated in the diagram. Adjust
the cap as needed to ensure that it
is centred with a 1 3/8” overhang on
all sides. Glue this layer down using
the included landscape glue.
NOTE:
Do not glue down fireplace
cap if the rain cap is still going to be
installed.
OPTIONAL RAIN CAP INSTALL:
Lift one side of the fireplace cap
and place one side of the rain cap
underneath. Lift the other side of the
fireplace cap and place the other
side of the rain cap underneath. Glue
fireplace cap in place with the included
landscape glue.

AFTER INSTALLATION:
CURING INSTRUCTIONS:
Upon installation of your new fireplace, there are still small amounts of moisture needing
to work their way out of the fireplace. If you immediately begin to build large fires in your
fireplace, you will compromise its longevity and can ultimately cause damage, including
cracking. It is then important to build fires slowly to cure the fireplace in preparation for use.
The first day of firing, the inside temperature should stay close to 100˚C without exceeding it.
A suggested way to do so is by building a fire in a separate location, and placing the hot coals
into the inside floor of the fireplace. Gradually build up from this point to larger and larger fires
for 4-5 days.
Allow 72 hours for glue and silicone
to set before first use.
