Remember to install the required clearance post on top.

Before framing your fireplace, check dimensions, framing methods and finished wall facing details.
Determine the total thickness of the finishing material – drywall, ceramic, tile, slate, etc. Make sure the
finished surface will be flush with the front or side of the unit.
