FIreBOx FraMInG
Firebox framing can be built before or after the appliance
is set in place. Refer to Figure 2 for fireplace and framing
dimensions. The framing headers may rest on the top of
the firebox standoffs. Do not bring headers below top of
standoffs. nOTe: When planning your framing and instal-
lation, keep in mind that your gas line can come in on the
right or left side of the firebox (as you are facing it) and
your electricity will come in on the right side.
The firebox may be installed directly on a combustible floor
or raised on a platform of an appropriate height. When
the firebox is installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other
combustible material, other than wood flooring, the firebox
shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the
full width and depth of the enclosure.
