Fireplace Assembly Instructions
1. Start by building a minimum 8” high x 25” deep, 44” wide base of bricks or blocks. Let dry
overnight. Fill the interior cavity with sand and compact level with top of base A.
2. Place base piece B (piece without refractory bricks) on base A. Check for level and trace outline
of the base B. Remove piece B and apply a thin coating of mortar on the area you have traced.
Use the same mortar mixture (see page 1) to attach. Make sure base is level.
3. Place fireplace side walls C and back wall D over base B. Do not use mortar in these joints.

4. Apply mortar mix over top edges of side and back walls, in preparation to receive the hood
pieces. Place the base of the hood E on top of side walls C making sure it is level and aligned
with side walls.
5. Install the Damper in the hood’s base, center by leaving equal distances on each side. To open
and close the register, pull the lever forward and backward.
6. Tighten the bolts on the damper.

7. Place hood piece F over the base E using mortar mix (see page 1). Test the damper to make sure
it opens and closes easily.
8. Place hood piece G over piece F in the same fashion as the last. Place the 2 refractory brick
bases B2 and B3 over base B, without mortar.
9. Grout all internal joints of the fireplace with the refractory grout (supplied with the kit).

To Complete: Build a brick or concrete enclosure around fireplace, and then apply the finishing
materials, such as tiles, stones, bricks, granite or marble.
Chimney System:

We don’t recommend building chimney with bricks or blocks. Use metal chimney pipe.
1. Attach chimney pipe anchor plate to top of hood assembly. Seal base plate with high
temperature stove cement.
2. Seal all gaps with high temperature stove cement.
3. In the case of using round tubing directly into the hood, grout gaps around pipe with refractory
grout leaving no remaining space between the tube and the chimney pipe.
4. Place approved spark arrestor chimney cap on top of chimney pipe (check local codes). All
chimneys systems to be UL listed for solid fuel burning. Contact mechanical sales for your chimney
