Build a wooden form for a Pyromix cement wall around the top, the bottom of the
door, and the upper rear sections of the fire box. The metal surfaces should not be
directly exposed to heat.
IMPORTANT: You must tape over the air outlets to prevent
cement from getting inside.
6.
Slowly fill the form with high temperature cement. Make sure there are no air pockets
in the form.
7.
Let the cement stand for at least 24 hours between 60 °F and 70 °F to let it dry; you
can add a heat source if needed.
8.
Remove the wooden form, break the cement opposite the air inlets (if necessary), and
remove the tape on the air outlets.
9.
Check for cracks in the cement. If you find cracks, fill them with cement to create an
even surface.
IMPORTANT: Contact your insurance company to make sure that your installation
complies with its safety rules.
