Finishing to the Bottom Guide
WARNING: Careful planning is required to insure a proper finish. Many fronts for the fireplace require different finishing
guides than what come on the fireplace. Before installing the hearth pad or wall finishing material on the fireplace insure the
correct finishing guides are installed on the fireplace for the front being used.
The fireplace is shipped with a bottom guide Installed. Some fronts that can be installed on this fireplace require other finishing
guides. In those cases, the guide that comes on the fireplace is removed and replaced with another guide. The bottom finishing
guide sits above the bottom of the fireplace. The finishing of the fireplace must be carefully planned to ensure the area
between the bottom of the fireplace and bottom guide is covered. The area must be covered with the hearth pad or if the
fireplace is raised above the hearth pad the area must be covered with non-combustible wall finishing material. The distance
from the bottom of the fireplace to the bottom guide varies depending on the front being installed. If the guides that come on
the fireplace are used the dimension “A” from the bottom of the fireplace to the bottom guide is 1 1/2”. Other guide kits that
are required for installing fronts on the fireplace may have a different dimension. Consult the guide kit instructions for detailed
dimensions.
The area between the bottom guide and bottom of the fireplace must be covered.
There are two options for covering this area. The first is to build the hearth pad so
that it is level with the bottom guide. The second option is to raise the fireplace
above the hearth pad and use non-combustible wall finishing material to cover the
area between the bottom guide and bottom of the fireplace.
Hearth Pad Built to the Bottom Guide Fireplace Raised Above the Hearth Pad
“A” = 1 1/2" for the guide that comes installed on the fireplace.
Other guide kits that are required for installing fronts on
the fireplace may have a different dimension. Consult the guide kit instructions for detailed dimensions.
If the hearth pad being used is thicker than the dimension “A” the fireplace will need to be raised. For example, if
the distance “A” from the bottom of the fireplace to the bottom guide is 1 1/2" and the hearth pad being used is 4”
thick the fireplace would need to be raised 2 1/2”.
