1. Secure the fireplace to the floor or wall framing studs at
a minimum of two attachment points to prevent further
movement of the fireplace. The same holes and L brack-
ets that attached the fireplace to the pallet may be used
to secure the fireplace to the sub flooring by using a mini-
mum of two 1/4 in. x 2 in. lag bolts or equivalent. Refer
to Figure 42.1 and install the two metal hearth strips at
this time.

2. Attach the bottom board to the bottom of the outer fire-
place can with enclosed screws, ensuring the board is
centered.
3. Center and attach the top board to the outer can and
framing members.
4. Using the Super Calstick, run a light bead (1/8 in. mini-
mum) on the butt edges of the top board. See Figure
42.2.
5. Ensuring the top of the side pieces and the top board
align, attach the side pieces to the outer can and framing
members.

dust or dirt from facing material. Apply a non-combustible
adhesive to attach tile, stone or other non-combustible fin-
ishing materials per manufacturer’s instructions.
