If nishing the wall above the unit
with paint, the framing kit shipped
with the unit should be discarded.
Use full sheets of calcium silicate
board or equivalent and full length
metal studs to nish and frame
around the unit.
Calcium silicate board is a high
grade material with cement, quartz
and natural minerals as the main
raw materials. (Note: Calcium
Silicate is 1/2" thick)
CAUTION: Calcium Silicate board
can be damaged if dropped or
struck. Handle with care. Inspect
board prior to installation and do
not use if cracked.
NOTE: It is recommended to pre-
drill mounting holes in the board
prior to securing to the framing.
This will prevent the board from
cracking.
