Firebrick Liners
Custom Firebrick Lining
Custom
Firebrick lining is not supplied by
BURNTECH
.
There is, however, the option of
modular
pre-fabricated
panels that can be obtained from
BURNTECH
. See
parts
page for details.
If custom firebrick lining is desired, 1-1/8” inch thick liners will
be required. The pattern for the firebrick lining is exclusively
your choice. Before you install the lining, remember to consider
any holes your contractor may need to drill for gas, electrical
or combustion air kit access holes.
Please use a certified mason to lay-in the brick. He will follow
the proper instructions from the fireplace liner manufacturer
and also understand the type of adhesive or cement he is to
use.
Make sure the fireplace is installed with the finished firebrick
floor of the fireplace so that it is
at least 11” (eleven inches)
above the combustible floor system.

Modular Firebrick Lining
If using our
BURNTECH
Firebrick Liners, simply use an extra
bucket of the mortar we supply. Install Hearth Liner first, then
continue with sides. Consider if brackets for grates will be
required also if pre-drilling is required for gaslines, electrical
or if the outside combustion air kit is to be installed. If the
optional
Arch is used, the top corners of the firebrick side
liners will
need to be notched (see
Figure 30
).
