Facing Example – Facing Over 1” Thick

Arched Faces:

For facing material over 1" thick (e.g. brick, river rock), install the facing around the
perimeter of the set-up face shipped with the fireplace. See the illustration below.

Rectangular Faces: For facing material over 1” thick (e.g. brick, river rock), install the facing material with a 1/8”

gap to side side of the face and 3/8” gap along the top of the face (for face installation).
Use the face being installed to create a form to support the facing as it is being installed.

Set-Up Face
(shipped with the fireplace - 1/16” taller and 1/8”
wider than the finished face)

1”

Note: if using a brick hearth, the fireplace will need to be raised to accommodate the 1” gap betwen the face and the
base of the fireplace. For 2-1/2” thick brick this works out to approximately 1-1/2” (we recommend 1-5/8” to accomodate
irregular surfaces).

Note: The brick tucks below the
face template.

The brick facing must meet the requirements listed
under “Facing Requirements”.
