Firebox framing can be built before or after the appliance
is set in place. Construct rebox framing following Figure

framing headers may rest on the top of the rebox.
The rebox may be installed directly on a combustible oor
or raised on a platform of an appropriate height. When
the rebox is installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other
combustible material, other than wood ooring, the rebox
shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the
full width and depth of the enclosure.
Combustibles may not come any closer to the top of the
enclosure than the standoffs will allow.

nails or other suitable fasteners. Figure 9
