FRAMING BEFORE INSTALLATION
Sometimes it is necessary to frame the location you will be installing the fireplace before the fireplace is onsite,
the above image shows an example of how to frame the wall before the fireplace is moved into position.
All framing, finishing, and construction materials that fall within 4" (102mm) of either the sides or top of
the fireplace must be non-combustible. (shown with a dashed line in the image above)
Note that the vent starter collar sits slightly above the top surface of the fireplace can, there must be
clearance to allow the fireplace with starter collar to slide into place.
The floor the fireplace immediately rests on must be constructed of non-combustible material with an R
factor of at least .37, with a minimum thickness of ½" (13mm).
This framing guide is just an example of the many ways in which a AURORA Fireplace can be installed.
You may need to customize this framing design to allow for things such as doors, windows, countertops,
structural frame members or local code requirements.
