After completing the framing and applying the facing mate-
rial (drywall) over the framing, a bead of non-combustible
sealant must be used to close off any gaps at the top and
sides between the replace and facing to prevent cold air
leaks. Large gaps can be bridged with berglass rope gas-
ket.
Only non-combustible materials may be used to cover the
metal replace front.
Cardboard OR Metal Template
A cardboard template of the front is printed on the outside of
the shipping box. It measures 1/8 in. (3 mm) bigger all the
way around than the actual front. Cut out the template
along the outside of the line for use in your installation.
A metal template is also available for more durable
continued
use remaining accurate over time. See page 64 for catalog
number.

You MUST use a hearth extension with this replace.
Refer to Figure 10.5 for minimum dimensions.
This replace has been tested and approved for use with
a hearth extension insulated to a minimum R value of
2.18.
The hearth extension material MUST be covered with
tile, stone or other non-combustible material.
Manufactured hearth materials will usually have a
published R value (resistance to heat) or k value
(conductivity of heat). Refer to the formula in Table 10.1
to convert a k value to an R value,
Refer to Table 10.2 for hearth extension insulation
