Framing
1. Before placing the fireplace inside the frame work, or
building the frame work around the fireplace, the top stand-
offs must be formed and secured. Form the top stand-offs in
the sequence shown in Figure 21, and secure them to the
firebox outer top using either four (SP) or five (PP) screws
from your hardware pack.

2. Attach four (SP) or five (PP) top-side nailing flanges to the
top stand-offs as shown in Figure 22. Leave the nailing
flanges flat at this time. Note that while the non-combustible
board provided with this fireplace is ½" thick, some
adjustment of the nailing flange position can be made by
using either the outer or inner pair of holes.

3. If necessary, the positions of the side nailing flanges can
adjusted by loosening (but do not remove) the top and
bottom screws, anchoring the bracket in place using a center
screw from the hardware pack, and re-tightening the top and
bottom screws. See Figure 23.

frame work, or the frame work has been built around the
fireplace, the nailing flanges shall be bent 90 degrees and
the fireplace should be attached to the frame work using 24
(SP) or 18 (PP) drywall screws.
