Side Wall Protection

Adjacent combustible side walls that are within dimen-
sions shown in Figure 25 of fireplace opening must
be protected with CFM Corporation Wall Shield Model
SP40 or a specifically built wall shield described in
Figure 24.
The special wall shield design described in Figure 24 is
an alternate method of adding protection to side walls
and can be used in place of the SP40 with the same
wall clearances specified for the SP40. Rt must =1.85
minimum.
Examples of wall shield insulation:

1. Manville - CERAFORM 126, K=.27,
1/2 inches thick
2. CFM Corporation - EH2416, K = .458,
1 inch thick required.

Hearth Installation

A hearth extension is required to protect a combustible
floor in front of the fireplace. Refer to Figure 25 for mini-
mum dimensions and mounting detail.
NOTE: Hearth Extension must not cover the air
inlet opening of a fireplace.
The hearth extension described in Figure 25 must be a
durable noncombustible material with a minimum (total)
Rt value of 1.09; refer to Figure 26 for examples. The
overall height (above a combustible floor), depth and
width must be as indicated, with the extension centered
to the fireplace opening.
