Nailing Flanges; Facing And Mantel - Superior Fireplaces WCT6920WS Installation And Operation Instruction Manual

Nailing Flanges

FLOOR: Four floor nailing flanges are provided
to secure the fireplace to the floor (see Figure

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 13B.
