FIREPLACE FRAMING
Firebox framing can be built before or after the appliance is set in place. Construct firebox framing following
Figure 2
and the
chart below for your specific installation requirements.
See Figure 3 on Page 8
for firebox dimensions. The framing headers may
rest on the top of the firebox standoffs.
The firebox may be installed directly on a combustible floor or raised on a platform of an appropriate height. When the firebox
is installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other combustible material, other than wood flooring, the firebox shall be installed on a
metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the enclosure.
