The front facing area of the FP25 must be covered with non-combustible cement board prior to applying any
non-combustible finishing material.
Use the Cement Board manufacturer's guidelines and suggested fasteners to attach the cement board to the
unit and studs.
Finish the joints as per the board manufacturer's recommendations.
The cement board must cover from the floor to a height of 7ft. (2.13m) from the bottom of the fireplace
(or 49 1/4" -1.25m from the top facing stop), and 58" (1.47m) wide centered on the unit.
The front casing of the fireplace has a built in facing edge/stop. DO NOT PLACE ANY CEMENT BOARD
OR FINISHING MATERIALS INSIDE THIS EDGE. Failure to comply may result in improper installation of
panels, overheating of the fireplace and blowers and may not be covered under Warranty.
