Framing
Fireplace chase may be framed with either combustible (typically wood studs) or non-combustible framing (typically metal studs).
Any framing within 18 inches from the top of the fireplace glass (viewing area) must be non-combustible.
The framing of the fireplace chase must be designed to carry the entire weight of the wall and finish material. Surrounding material
must not transfer weight to the fireplace or be connected in any way to the fireplace, with the exception of
5

” Type X drywall (or its
equivalent). It may be fastened to the front face of the fireplace with 1-inch self-tapping drywall screws 16 inches on center, with a
minimum of 2
1
/
2
inches from the metal lip (above the viewing area).
IMPORTANT: No material is permitted to extend past the
1
/
2
” metal lip surrounding the fireplace viewing area. This area
must be unobstructed to allow the heat barrier and inside glass panel to be removable.
IMPORTANT: To ensure the glass is removable after installation, Magnetic Screw (Part #M03) under the fireplace lip
must be secured tightly to the firebox and screwed in as far as possible prior to installation of framing and finish material.
If the magnet is not completely screwed down into the firebox, the lip will sit ajar to the firebox, preventing glass removal.

The following diagrams are for illustrative purposes only. There are multiple approved installation scenarios. A flush application is not
