Overview - Wood Framing

Installers can implement an all-wood framing installation
for full height installations. Included standoff s on top of
the unit give minimum clearance for combustible framing
materials from the top of the unit.
WARNING
HOT WALL SURFACES! The walls directly
above the fireplace are constructed of non-
combustible materials and, although safe,
may reach temperatures in excess of 200°F
(93°C) depending on choice of materials. Do
not touch. Finish the walls using materials
suitable for these temperatures.
