Fireplace Placement Requirements
Minimum Framing Dimensions
We recommend installing the
shaded framing members
after installing the chimney.
Arrange the framing
members so there is not a
vertical member directly in
the center of the opening
where it would interfere with
pipe clearances.
26"
Header
(install veritcally to
ensure proper pipe to
header clearance)
A firestop is required at the top of
the fireplace enclosure or ceiling
level (whichever is lower).
Min. 4-1/2"
NOTE: make sure the
enclosure is wide enough to
accommodate the blower
(see the section"Blower" for
details).
The fireplace enclosure must not be
less than 81" above the base of the
fireplace.
• If the fireplace is raised, the
enclosure height must be raised to
maintain the 81".
• Do not build into this area.
• Do not slope the walls inward.
