Nailing Flanges; Facing And Mantel - Superior Fireplaces WCT4920 Installation And Operation Instruction Manual

Nailing Flanges

FLOOR: Four floor nailing flanges are provided
to secure the fireplace to the floor (see Figure
13). Bend the nailing flanges down so that each
flange is flush with the floor, then using nails
or screws, secure the fireplace to the floor (2
places each side). The heads of the screws or
nails must be large enough to completely cover
the holes in the nailing flanges.
SIDES: Secure the sides of the fireplace to the
side framing using the side nailing flange as-
semblies shown in Figure 14.
