Flush Wall Fire Brick Finish Detail
Recommended Fire Brick Detail: With drywall crossing over the face of the IBV smoke dome assembly (as previously described
on page 22), to cover the exposed drywall thickness as well as to aid in the overall fit and finish of the IBV front, it is recommended,
when installing the required fire brick lining to the interior of the firebox, that the leading edge of the fire brick - at the floor and
at the side walls of the firebox - project into the room so that the fire brick is finished flush with the room’s finished drywall
surface.
This method of fire brick application, as shown above (Figure 28), allows the fire brick lining to cover the thickness of the drywall
room finish. Also, with fire brick set in this fashion the code required noncombustible finish facing material (see page 28) can be
set tight against the fire brick at the sides of the fireplace opening and at the same time lay flat against the finished wall surface.
