Appliance Height in Framing
Hearth considerations
• Only a non-combustible hearth can be installed in
front of the appliance if within 4” of the bottom of the
appliance.
• The top surface of the non-combustible hearth must
be at the same level as appliance bottom panel when
using certain trims and accessoires—see pages
14-16.
• The non-combustible hearth in front of the appliance,
if within 4” of the bottom of the appliance, must in-
clude the 1/2”
Micore
insulation board provided to be
used as thermal break between non-combustible and
combustible material underneath.
Appliance Depth in Framing
• 1130FFK Fixed Framing Kit and 1130CIK Clean Install
Kit install at framing stage and the appliance position
is
fi
xed in the framing. In both cases, the wall
fi
nishes
butt up to the frame of the kit.
• All other trims install after the wall
fi
nish is applied.
The perimeter of the trims overlap the wall
fi
nish;
therefore the thickness of any wall
fi
nish materials
must be taken into consideration. The trims have
enough adjustability to allow up to 3/4” thick material
applied over top of the 1/2” thick non-combustible
board. Otherwise the appliance position within the
framing must be adjusted to allow the additional
thickness—see page 25.
