Step 10
Installing Trim, Refractory, Logs, and Ember Material
Installing the Trim
Combustible materials may be brought up to the specified clearances on the side
and top front edges of the fireplace, but MUST NEVER overlap onto the front face.
The joints between the finished wall, fireplace top and sides can only be sealed with
°
a 150
C minimum sealant.
Install optional marble and brass trim surround kits as desired. Marble, brass, brick,
tile, or other noncombustible materials can be used to cover up the gap between
the sheet rock and the fire-
place.
Do not obstruct or modify the
air inlet/outlet grilles. When
overlapping on both sides,
leave enough space so that
the bottom grille can be
opened and the trim door re-
moved.
Installing the Ceramic
Refractory
Remove dress guard, glass
door and log package. Re-
move refractory pieces from
packaging (see Figure 32).
Position rear refractory piece
first and then slide both side
pieces through the upper
guide openings until they sit
firmly against the rear of the
unit. See following pages for
log installation instruction.
IF JOINTS BETWEEN THE FINISHED WALLS AND
THE FIREPLACE SURROUND (TOP AND SIDES) ARE
SEALED, A 150° C. MINIMUM SEALANT MATERIAL
MUST BE USED. THESE JOINTS ARE NOT RE-
QUIRED TO BE SEALED. ONLY NONCOMBUSTIBLE
MATERIAL (USING 150° C. MINIMUM ADHESIVE, IF
NEEDED) CAN BE APPLIED AS FACING TO THE
FIREPLACE SURROUND. SEE FIGURE 31.
