1) Determine the total thickness of facing mate-
rial (e.g. drywall plus ceramic tiles) to allow
the finished surface to be flush with the front
of the unit. Total facing thickness can vary
from 1/2" (13mm) to 1-1/4" (32mm) thick.
Install Side Nailing Strips, and Top Facing
10" (254mm)
Support before unit is slipped into position.
See page 9 for assembly details.
2) Frame in the enclosure for the unit with
framing material.
3) For exterior walls, insulate the enclosure to
the same degree as the rest of the house,
apply vapour barrier and drywall, as per lo-
cal installation codes. (Do not insulate the
fireplace itself.)
4) The top of the unit must not be closer than
30" (762mm) to the ceiling.
5) Combustible material may be brought up to
the top and sides of the unit and be covered
with ceramic tiles, bricks, rock or other suit-
able combustible finishing materials.
Note: The unit does not have to be complete-

1-1/2" (38mm) clearance from the flue to
combustible material cannot be maintained.

ly 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 clearance from the
flue to combustible materials for flex
for Simpson Dura-Flue, see page 7.
