Step 1. FRAMING
Frame these appliances as illustrated in Figures
12 and 13 on Pages 10 and 11 (Figure 13
applies to corner framing installations only).
All framing details must allow for a minimum
clearance to combustible framing members as
shown in Table 5 on Page 8.
If the appliance is to be elevated above floor
level, a solid continuous platform must be
constructed below the appliance.
Headers may be in direct contact with the
appliance top spacers but must not be sup-
ported by them or notched to fit around them.
All construction above the appliance must be
self-supporting. DO NOT use the appliance for
structural support.
The fireplace should be secured to the side framing
members using the unit's nailing flanges - one top
and bottom on each side of the fireplace front. See
Figure 11. Use 8d nails or their equivalent.
