FINISHING FIREPLACE
Combustible materials, such as wallboard, sheet rock, drywall, plywood,
etc. may make direct contact with sides and top around the fireplace
face. It is important that combustible materials do not overlap the face
itself. Brick, glass, tile or other noncombustible materials may overlap
the front face provided they do not obstruct essential openings like
louvered slots or any other opening. When overlapping with a noncom-
bustible facing material, use only noncombustible mortar or adhesive.
