Instruction Manual. Use these instructions to Install the Craftsman Front mounting brackets and the Non-
Combustible wall board.
Mounting the Side Brackets
1. Drill out the top rivet and through
into the rebox front ange, using
a 7/32” drill bit.
2. Align the side bracket over
the two remaining rivet heads,
centering the holes.
3. Install one of the 1/4-20 thread
cutting screws through the large
hole in the bracket and into
the rebox front ange. Do not
tighten completely.
4. Using (5) #8 self-drilling screws,
fasten the Side Bracket to the
replace front using the holes
provided in the bracket.
5. Gently tighten all screws
6. Repeat the process on the other
side.
Removing the Upper and Lower
Grill assemblies:
• Remove the Upper and Lower

Attaching the front wall Board.
1. Dry t and Mark the replace
by Inserting the tabs located on
each end of the Top Brow Mount
into the corresponding cutout in
the side brackets.
• Ensure the top and sides are
ush against the replace. The
clearance holes for the rivets
should be over the rivets.
2. While holding the Top Brow
Mount in place, use a pencil to
trace the top edge of the brow
onto the Fireplace’s front panel.
3. Place the brow in a safe place
until after the wall board is in
place.
The front of the Fireplace and Chase can only be covered using non-combustible board.
Cut the opening (as per the board manufacturers guidelines) using the dimensions and the Arch template
provided (Figure 6). Do not place any vertical joints in the wall board above the unit as this may lead to
cracking of the joint compound.
NOTE: the dimensions shown here
are from the bottom of the unit. If
the unit is raised, add the height to
the bottom dimensions.
4. Anchor the boards to the
replace and studs following the
board manufacturers guidelines
for drilling holes, screw type and
spacing.
• Make sure you can see the
pencil line for the Brow as this
will mean you have enough
clearance to mount the Top Brow.

When the Craftsman Arched Front is installed on a FP 30 AR Series B Fireplace, the chase requires 16sq.in.
[100cm2] of chase inlet air. This air helps support the replace’s convection airow and is separate from the
Combustion Intake air. The duct doesn’t have to be round or a single inlet. The requirement is that the total
inlet area must be equal to 16sq.in. or greater.
This air must enter the chase no higher than 12” [305mm] from the bottom of the replace. And can be placed
on the front (off to the side of the unit (Figure 6 on page 7) or on the sides or back of the chase if it pro-
trudes into the room. Air can be drawn from under the chace if that space is sealed within the house enve-
lope. The air must come from inside the house, preferably the room the replace is installed in.
Dimensions to note when installing the non-combustible wall board
