combustibles as specified. Framing
or finishing material closer than the
minimums listed must be constructed
entirely of non-combustible materials
(i.e., steel studs, concrete board, etc).
Figure 3.6 Clearances to Combustibles
D. Hearth Extension/Floor Protection
This application does not require a hearth extension.
E. Stand-Alone Installation
This appliance may be installed as a stand-alone unit.
Construct a stand-alone framing of combustible or
noncombustible materials.
Cement board or other noncombustible material can
be applied directly to the face of the appliance.
Air space clearances are not required for stand-alone
construction with noncombustible materials.
Tape and seal all joints and corners.
Provide proper flashing and moisture management
if installed on surfaces that may rot or otherwise be
damaged by water. (See also Section 4.B.)
When the stand-alone surround is constructed com-
pletely of noncombustible materials, stand-offs may be
removed to permit a smaller structure.
F. Built-in Installation
When this appliance is installed into a wall, we recom-
mend that the wall be an exterior wall system.
• See framing measurements in Figure 3.3 and 3.4.
• You must maintain 1 in. (25mm) air space at the back
and sides. See Figures 3.3 and 3.4.
• The header must not be placed below the top of the
top standoffs.
Noncombustible wall sheathing material is required
from bottom of appliance opening to ceiling. (See

G. Moisture Resistance
This outdoor appliance will shed moderate amounts of
water, but is not waterproof. This appliance must be en-
closed or covered with noncombustible finish material
and all joints sealed to prevent water infiltration.
The firebox will not perform as an exterior wall. Moisture
penetration must be considered for construction that
places the appliance in structure walls or on moisture
sensitive surfaces.

side the structure's weather envelope. Where the plat-
form meets the wall, use a flashing detail similar to that
required for attached decks. Chase platforms, including
hearths should slope away from the structure at 1/8 in.
