LT2 2700K

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 LT2 Linear ﬁreplace requires a 1/2” (13mm) 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.

LT2 2700K

Finishing Over Non-Combustible Board

Additional material such as tile, etc., may be applied

over top of the non-combustible 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.

2775LFB Trim

Only the 2775LFB style trim will accept tile, etc. tucked

behind it (up to 1/2” thick for the 2775LFB).

2730CIK Trim

The 2730CIK trim must be installed BEFORE non-

combustible board. Non-combustible board and

ﬁnishes are applied to the perimeter of the trim frame.

Non-combustible board and ﬁnish CANNOT be tucked

under this trim.

Wall Finish — Avoid Cracking

October 2023

LT2 2700K

Cracks

Provide joints

either here or

here

Avoiding Cracking Wall Finishes

If a clean ﬁnish with no tile, etc. is desired, joints in the

non-combustible 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

approach 200°F (93°C).

Below are some tips on how to best avoid any cracking:

• Allow materials to dry thoroughly before ﬁnishing the

wall. Non-combustible 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 saturated condition. Running the ﬁreplace for an

extended period before ﬁnal ﬁnishing will help drive

out moisture.

• Always pre-drill screw holes through non-combustible

board and use screws with self-milling head.

• 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 non-combustible board or tiles around

corners of window opening and instead provide a joint

that intersects the corner.

• Avoid using large 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

inside corners. Provide a joint that intersects the inside

corner to avoid cracking.

WARNING:

HeatShift System MUST be installed on this

appliance.
