4.2 Optional Finishing Trim
Kit (FTK): #C39-FTK
This optional finishing trim kit (included with the fireplace) provides
a 3/4" (19mm) finished edge (black metal) to allow a 1/2" finish board
and tile or stone to finish up against creating a shadow box for the
safety front.
Use this when finishing around the fireplace with tile or stone. Do not
use if you are finishing with 1/2" drywall or non-combustible only, as
it will leave 1/4" exposed.
Do not use with inside mount safety barrier C39-RSF2, where this
finishing trim kit is not necessary.
IMPORTANT: This trim kit must be attached before fireplace installation.
NOTE: This trim panel assembly should be installed with the stand-
off assembly, insulation piece, and header heat shields. Refer to
