Framing and Finishing
1. Choose unit location.
2. Frame in fireplace with a header across the top. It is important to
allow for finished face when setting the depth of the frame.
3. Attach fireplace to frame using adjustable nailing flange. Preset
depth to suit facing material (adjustable to 3/8", 1/2" or 3/4" depths).
Note: Fireplace must mount flush to facing material. If facing
material requires more depth than 3/4" mark and drill two
(2) 1/8" holes into fireplace side at appropriate depth. See
Figure 10.
4. Use (8) 1/2" hex-head screws supplied in hardware package,
to screw through slotted holes in drywall strip and then screw
into pre-drilled holes on fireplace side. Measure from face of
fireplace to face of drywall strip to determine final depth.
