Material Specifications
Non-Combustible
Material which will not ignite and burn. Such materials
are those consisting entirely of steel, iron, brick, tile,
concrete, slate, glass or plasters, or any combination
thereof.
Materials that are reported as passing ASTM E 136,
Standard Test Method for Behavior of Materials in a
Vertical Tube Furnace at 750°C shall be considered
non-combustible materials.
Combustible
Materials made of or surfaced with wood, compressed
paper, plant fibers, plastics, or other material that
can ignite and burn, whether flame proofed or not,
or plastered or unplastered shall be considered
combustible materials.
Non-Combustible Cement Board
The L2 Linear fireplace requires a 1/2” (13mm) thick
non-combustible cement board to be used as a wall
surface immediately surrounding the unit’s opening—
see diagram for minimum coverage.
Extending the cement board well beyond the minimum
shown will help avoid cracking due to differential
expansion of materials.
Pre-drill cement board with oversized holes and do
not over-tighten screws to avoid cracking due to heat
expansion.
Standard gypsum wall board may be used beyond the
perimeter of the cement board.

Additional non-combustible material such as tile, etc.,
may be applied over top of the cement board or you
may choose to leave it finished clean with no tile, etc.
Be aware that a trim is always required. Finish should
not cover the trims.
1775 and 1750 Trims
Only the 1775 and 1750 style trims will accept tile, etc.
tucked behind them (up to 5/8” thick for the 1775 and
up to 1 inch thick for the 1750).
1730 Trim
1730 trim must be installed BEFORE cement board.
Cement board and finishes are applied to the perimeter
of the trim frame. Cement board and finished CANNOT
be tucked under this trim.

Wall Finish — Avoid Cracking
Avoiding Cracking Wall Finishes
We recommend installing the optional HeatShift
System to reduce the wall temperatures and minimize
the possibility of cracking wall finishes.
If a clean finish with no tile, etc. is desired, joints in the
cement board and the transition to gypsum board
will require special attention if future cracking is to be
controlled. Be aware that temperatures on the non-
combustible wall surface above the appliance can
exceed 200°F (93°C).
Below are some tips on how to best avoid any cracking:
• Allow materials to dry thoroughly before finishing the
wall. Cement board has the ability to absorb up to 30
percent of its weight in water and may shrink as much
as 1/8” over a 48” length when drying from a satu-
rated condition. Running the fireplace for an extended
period before final finishing will help drive out mois-
ture.
WARNING
HeatShift System MUST be installed on
this appliance when using 1730CIK—Clean
Installation Kit.
• Always pre-drill screw holes through cement board
and use screws specific for material used.
• Always use mesh tape over joints.
• Always stagger joints in wall board.
• Behind joints, double up studs or use studs “on the
flat” to add extra support to the joint. Adhesive on
the backside of wall board behind any joints can help
control differential movement.
• Use multiple, thinner coats of joint compound and al-
low to dry thoroughly between coats.
• Ensure framing materials are dry.
• After finishing the wall, introduce heat gradually to
slowly dry any excess moisture rather than drying too
fast.
• Avoid notching cement board or tiles around corners
of window opening and instead provide a joint that
intersects the corner.
• Avoid using lage one-piece slab of material with a
cut-out in the middle as a surround for the fireplace.
Expansion above the opening will cause cracking at in-
side corners. Provide a joint that intersects the inside
corner to avoid cracking.
