Chase Framing

¥The chase framing must be framed to the minimum dimensions shown in the illustration below.

+The shaded framing in the illustration below be framed in after the fireplace is installed to ease

chimney installation. If this framing must be installed prior to the fireplace installation be sure to

account for the hearth height (if greater than 11") before determining the header height. It must be a

minimum of 17 1/2" above the masonry enclosure. Consider installing the fireplace and masonry in

the desired location and then constructing the framing around it to the proper clearances.

It is suggested that this portion is

framed after masonry is completed.

Must be above the

mantle and a

minimum of 17 1/2"

above the masonry

block-in.

46" Min., 48" Suggested

63" Min.

+To determine the depth of the chase, facing depth and type of masonry enclosure must be

determined. The ideal chase depth for a tile face is 28 1/2". For brick it is 26 1/2". When

determining the depth, apply all of the minimum clearances. Check all of the specifications and

make a detailed sketch outlining all the dimensions for this construction before beginning. If the

chase does not work out to be the desired depth based on the facing material, additional framing may

be added to the front of the existing framing to shim the facing to the needed location.

¥The chase must be vented with a minimum 28 square inch of cross sectional opening duct (use the

included 6" diameter air vent). Failure to vent the system will create a fire hazard. This vent

circulates air into the space between the chase and the masonry enclosure and provides cooling air

for the double-wall chimney. The vent must terminate within 24" of the chase floor (see illustration

below). The maximum length for 6" diameter round duct is 12' and 25' for 8" duct. The duct can go

to an attic or crawl space providing they are vented. Some building codes may require that the ducts

continue through the attic or crawl space to an outside wall.

?Check with the local building department if venting anyplace other than outdoors. This includes the

attic, crawl space, or garage. This type of venting may require a special type of venting duct such as

a venting duct with a fire curtain.

+This vent should be installed before starting the block-in procedure to allow for the space needed to

measure and cut the hole for the duct.

Fireplace Placement Requirements

Floor Load

¥The fireplace and block-in (60 4x8x16 nominal size blocks) weigh approximately 1200 lbs., or 130

lbs. per square foot. Heavy facing, such as brick or stone, will increase the floor load.

¥The fireplace is shipped with a lifting handle on each side. After the fireplace is in place, remove

these handles.

Clearances

¥Fireplace should be located such that no doors, drapes, furniture or other combustibles can be placed

close or swing closer than the minimum 36" clearance. Due to the high heat output of this fireplace,

choose a location away from high traffic areas.

¥Fireplace must be placed so the vents below and above the glass do not become blocked

+Determining the exact placement of the fireplace is crucial for construction and safety purposes.

Such factors as facing material depth, masonry enclosure size, and chimney location all factor in to

the final location of the fireplace.

¥The illustration below outlines fireplace placement requirements. The faceplate must be a minimum

29 1/2" in front of any chase framed wall. The fireplace body must maintain a 1" airspace to the

masonry block-in on the sides and back (to be filled with insulation as an expansion buffer). The

masonry block-in must be made with lightweight concrete block (75% pumice) with the nominal

dimensions of 4 by 8 by 16 (actual size is 3 1/2" thick by 7 1/2" tall by 15 1/2" wide). The block-in

must have a minimum thickness of 3 1/2" on the sides and back, 7 1/2" on top, and 11" on bottom.

Block-In Drying Time

¥The block-in must dry for one month before using the fireplace. This will prevent the block-in from

cracking due to the heat generated from the fireplace.

Special Precautions

¥In some states the block-in may require special construction to meet earthquake requirements. This

may include having to mortar the block-in to expanded metal and/or a tied down block-in

construction. Check with your local building department for requirements in your area.

Facing

¥The facing must be made of a non-combustible material such as stone, brick, marble or tile. For thin

facing such as marble or tile 1/2" cement fiber board (see illustration above) must be used as a

backing to attach the facing material.

¥Non-combustible facing must extend 4 1/2" from each side of the fireplace

¥Non-combustible facing must extend 26" from the top of the fireplace

+The facing must be determined prior to installation because it determines the size of other

construction. The facing depth determines where the block and the framing will end up in relation to

the face plate of the fireplace. When calculating the facing depth, take into consideration any

masonry that will be included. If using tile with cement fiberboard attached to the back, make sure

to include the depth of the fiberboard. If using a brick facing, include the size of any mortar joint

that will be used.

+It is very important to determine whether the facing will be an inside fit or flush fit (See the

illustration below). A flush fit has the faceplate overlap the facing material while the inside fit has

the faceplate butt up against the facing. After determining the style of facing, make sure to carefully

calculate the appropriate distances needed for the other portion of construction (i.e. block-in,

fireplace placement). The facing must also extend a minimum of 4 1/2" from the edge of the

faceplate. The illustration above displays the use of tile and 1/2" cement fiberboard with a flush fit.

Set-Up Face

¥The fireplace is shipped with a set-up face that is 1/16" larger on the top, bottom and each side than

the faceplate (arched or square). Use the set-up face as a template when installing the facing.

¥Arched and square faceplates are available with this fireplace. If using an arched faceplate, remove

the top and two side extenders that are behind the arched set-up face.

BLOCK-IN INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)PAGE 7

Block-In

¥This fireplace requires a masonry block-in to surround the fireplace and act as a thermal barrier. It

must be made of lightweight concrete blocks.. It must be a minimum of 3 1/2" thick on all sides and

extend over the top of the fireplace with a minimum of 7 1/2" of masonry. It must have a 1"

clearance around the fireplace. Insulation is to be placed in this space wherever there is a possibility

that mortar or masonry could come in contact with the fireplace. Contact of the fireplace to the

masonry could cause the masonry to crack when the fireplace expands with heat. The block-in must

not have a clearance over 1" between the top of the fireplace and the top masonry enclosing it. The

top of the block-in must be at least 7 1/2" thick. Underneath the block-in there must be a 36" by 46"

piece of 26 gauge galvanized tin vapor barrier and mesh screen for holding the blocks in place. The

block-in must be a minimum of 42" wide and have a depth of 27 1/2" including the depth of the

facing. The block-in must be at least two inches away from the back and side walls of the chase.

¥No hearth shall rise above the bottom of the faceplate (otherwise the faceplate would not fit in place)

¥Raised hearths must be constructed of non-combustible materials. If the hearth is over 6" tall, it

must have a hollow cavity to allow better heat dissipation and prevent the floor below it from

becoming too hot (See illustration below).
