Facing Requirements
NOTE: The combustible area above the facing must not protrude more than 3/4" from the facing. If it does, it
is considered a mantel and must meet the mantel requirements listed in this manual.

temperatures of the fireplace may cause adhesives to emit odors. Use mastic or thin set
(or other non-combustible, non-odorous adherent) to attach the facing to the cement
board.
NOTE: Screws may be used to secure the cement board to the fireplace. Do not
penetrate the fireplace more than 3/4”
