B. Frame the fireplace with vertical studs on each side of the fireplace running from floor to 

ceiling (see Figure 15). Position the studs back from the front edge of the fireplace, 
leaving a space the thickness of the facing material so that the facing can be installed flush 
with the fireplace facing (within limitations of Figure 15). Frame headers between the 
vertical studs only as follows: 

 

Place 2 x 3 or 2 x 4 headers, only along the upper part of the front, side and back 
faces. Do not put wood or any combustible material within the area above the fireplace 
except on the front facing. 

 

Place headers only as required to support the facing and mantel. 

 

WARNING: DO NOT PACK REQUIRED AIR SPACES WITH INSULATION OR 

OTHER MATERIAL.  

 

WARNING: THE FIREPLACE MUST NOT BE IN CONTACT WITH ANY 

INSULATION OR LOOSE FILLING MATERIAL. COVER THE 
INSULATION WITH DRYWALL PANELS AROUND THE 
FIREPLACE.
