FRAMING AND
FINISHING
1)
Determine the total thickness of facing
material (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to
allow the fi nished surface to be fl ush with
the front of the unit. Total facing thickness
can vary from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm)

Note:The unit does not have to be completely
enclosed in a chase. The clearance on
top of the unit is 0" to the standoffs so
combustible building materials can be
laid directly on top of the standoffs. You
must maintain 1-1/2" (38mm) clearance
from the fl ue to combustible materials
for fl ex (1-1/4" (32mm) for Simpson
Dura-Vent).
5)
Use steel studs for framing where the
1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the fl ue to
combustible material cannot be maintained,
e.g. front top header.
2)
Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material.
