Recommendations for Finishing of Clean View Linear Products
Only non-combustible materials may be used over the face of the appliance.
We recommend that DUROCK (non-combustible material) be tied in to the entire perimeter of the fireplace for durability.
Finishing Recommendations (Obtained from professional construction contractors and finishers):
Frame unit with metal studs (minimum 20 gauge).
Minimum of 1/2” DUROCK cement board (this non-combustible panel is ULC listed as a wall shield/floor protector) and
fasten to the entire perimeter framing.
Use fiberglass (mesh) tape for all joints in area of the fireplace.
Use Yellow joint mud (contains high amounts of glue) – two coats, finishing with one coat of green topping mud, sand
and prep for painting.
If not using a surround, a metal “L” Trim may be used to finish perimeter of DUROCK.
