Installation of brick should be
done after the fireplace is placed
in a permanent location.
The brick housing panels are already installed in
the firebox. Each housing is stamped with a letter
(full size bricks are not stamped). These letters will
help identify the brick when installing. It is impor
-
tant to install these bricks exactly as instructed.
Press the brick firmly into the brick housing until
it snaps. The groove line on the side of the brick
will come in contact with the flange on the brick
housing. This secures the brick into the housing.
See Figure 20 on page 14.
The bricks are packaged in four separate boxes.
These boxes are labeled by sections of the fire
