Facing Requirements
Non-combustible facing must extend from 1" above the base of the fireplace to the framing header (see
illustration below for details).
Non-combustible facing must extend the entire width of the unit to the framing opening on both sides (see
illustration below for details).
Do not place facing over the glass opening.
WARNING: Do not place drywall or other combustibles over the front of the fireplace.
WARNING: Do not use adhesive to secure the facing. The high temperatures of the
fireplace may cause adhesives to emit odors. Use mastic or thin-set (or other non-
combustible, non-odorous adherent) to attach the facing.
NOTE: Screws may be used to secure cement board or tile backer to the fireplace. Do not
penetrate the fireplace more than 1/2" (13mm).
ACID WASH WARNING: Make sure any masonry that has been treated with acid wash has been properly neutralized
(this is used primarily with brick faces). Acid wash (muriatic acid) is used to remove excess mortar.
