When fi nishing the wall around the fi replace, it is critical
that wall sheathing be fastened properly. Wall sheathing
fasteners, such as screws or nails, are not permitted in

to lathe (a backer for tile, marble, etc.) Screws being
installed through the factory-installed non-combustible

of 2 in. (51 mm) See Figure 13.1. Do not drill or install
screws which may penetrate the lower cover panel as this
will restrict required access to the glass and lower control
chamber. See Figure 13.1.
