TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
This is only intended to serve as a general guide. A knowledge of masonry is recommended and local codes may vary.
HANDLING
Our fireplaces are hand carved from natural stones (limestone, marble and travertine). They must be handled with care to avoid breakage or chipping during uncrating and installation. Due to the weight of some pieces, a mechanical lifting device may be needed.
INSTALLATION
1. Blocking must be put between the wall studs (2" X 6" or 2" X 8" studs are recommended) with mechanical anchors used to attach the stone to the blocking.
2. Use of an adhesive is required between the stone joints as well as the stone and the wall (thin set, mortar, epoxy, etc.)
SEALING & GROUTING
We recommend that a grout release be used on the stone prior to grouting. Always perform tests on a small inconspicuous area to determine the ease of application and the desired results. Sanded grouts are recommended (available in many colors from various manufacturers).
