FINISHING FIREPLACE

Combustible materials, such as wallboard,

gypsum board, sheet rock, drywall, plywood,

etc., may make direct contact with sides and

top around fireplace face. It is important that

combustible materials do not overlap face

itself. Brick, glass, tile or other noncombustible

materials may overlap front face provided

they do not obstruct essential openings such

as louvered slots. When overlapping with

a noncombustible facing material, use only

noncombustible mortar or adhesive.
