Facing Example – Standard Position – Flush Finish

We recommend a non-combustible board (such as Hardiebacker 500™) be placed over the front of the
fireplace around the perimeter of the glass opening (do not place over the ledge to the glass opening).

We recommend the non-combustible facing extend to the header above the non-combustible framing and to
the framing on both sides of the fireplace. The facing should have the seam to the side of the glass
opening (see illustration below). See the illustration below for other recommendations.
NOTE: Most non-combustible board will require a skim coat to achieve a smooth finish prior to painting
HINT: We recommend the use of a trim kit when making a flush install. This helps conceal the area
between the non-combustible board and the glass opening.
