OUTDOOR FIREPLACE INSTALLATION & OPERATION

A) ITEMS TO CONSIDER BEFORE INSTALLATION

The outdoor wood replaces constructed by The King of Hearths
are a very high quality precast replace meant to enhance your
outdoor living. They are not meant to be used inside a roofed
area or building. Clearances to combustible materials are a major
consideration. The stack of your replace is equipped to accept
a chimney cap. A cap with a spark arrestor is required. There
should be no combustible materials within 8 feet of the cap.
The front of the replace opening requires a minimum of a 4
foot area where there should be no combustible materials. This
includes items as wood decking, furniture and the like. Look for
items such as power lines and trees in your yard area to make
sure you have a safe clearance.

B) PAD REQUIREMENTS

Your King of Hearths outdoor replace is constructed from a
high strength light weight concrete. Because of this it may not
be necessary to pour a pad to place your replace. Because
the replace itself does not need assembly or to be mortared
together a traditional frost foundation may not be required.
You will need to remove all organic material (plant matter and
topsoil) under your slab or hearth. That material needs to be
replaced with gravel material and then compacted for support
similar to what is done in preparation for proper sidewalk or
driveway installations. Minimum pad dimensions are:

King Arthur 50 inches wide by 40 inches deep
Guinevere 42 inches wide by 32 inches deep
Camlann 35 inches wide by 30 inches deep

The pad should be poured a minimum of 6 inches deep.
A rebar mat needs to be installed in a checkerboard
fashion with 12 inch centers. This will keep the pad from
splitting and putting undue pressure on the replace. If
using one of our hearths it will only be necessary to level
the hearth. In the event you are using a sidebox it will be
necessary to enlarge the pad width by 24 inches. Pads
should cure for 7 days before placement of your replace.

C) FIREPLACE PLACEMENT

Once your pad or hearth installation is complete you can place
your replace. Remove the stack from rebox. Your replace
will come on a sturdy pallet in order to safely get the replace
close to its nal placement. It is not recommended to remove
the replace from the pallet until it is placed next to the slab
or hearth. The pallet will ensure proper weight displacement
of the replace when coming across rough terrain. On the rear
of the rebox there will be 2 fork pockets to lift the replace
from its pallet and place onto the slab or hearth. It is advisable
to center the replace on your slab or hearth for equal weight
distribution. The stack needs to be placed at this point. Make
sure it is centered on the opening in the top of the rebox. It
is not necessary to mortar the stack. When you complete your
facing with cultured stone, cultured brick or stucco it will lock
in and seal your stack. The King Arthur has a 2 piece stack to
accommodate the larger rebox.

D) CONDITIONING YOUR FIREPLACE

It is recommended at this point before the facing is applied to
build a few small res. Make sure you have a proper chimney cap
installed. Your King Of Hearths replace already has the rebrick
installed. You can burn right on the bottom of the replace or
install a log grate if you wish. This preburn is recommended to
temper the unit. All materials including concrete will react to
heat. This process will help bring the materials to a near nal
rest before the facing is applied. Your replace is meant to burn
wood. Burning garbage, wood treated with preservatives or
other materials can create temperatures much hotter than wood.
In other words protect your investment. NEVER use gasoline or
diesel fuel to start your replace. The preferred method would be
using cardboard or kindling for starter.

E) FINISHING YOUR FIREPLACE

Your King Of Hearths replace is left purposely with a semi
rough surface. For best results mesh and scratch coat the
surface to ensure a good bond between the unit and your nish
material, whether it be cultured material or natural stone facing
or stucco. It is recommended to leave a small gap of a quarter
inch between the bottom of the replace veneer and pad. The
reason for this is to prevent your facing from contacting the
hearth or slab during the months when some movement can
take place. Your King Of Hearths dealer will be able to make
proper recommendations for your application. In the event you
select to install one of our sideboxes with your replace you
will notice that the height is slightly higher than the at part of
the rebox. This is done intentionally to ensure that a proper
slope is installed in the veneer applied to prevent water and or
ice pooling where the 2 precast units join. It is not necessary to
anchor the sidebox to the rebox. The weight of the sidebox
and the locking done by the veneer makes this not needed.

WARNING

BEFORE YOU START ANY FIRE, MAKE
SURE THE BURNING AREA IS COMPLETELY
DRY. SPARK ARRESTOR IS REQUIRED
BEFORE STARTING A FIRE.
