Important
Installation Note: Wood Stone uses Hardi
Backer cement board if you order your oven “facade
ready”. Please be advised, that a
layer of Thin Set
or an approved adhesive for high heat
needs to be applied to the backer
board before the facade material,
i.e.; tile, bricks, stone, etc.
 These illustrations refer to an installation
of a Fire Deck 8645. The Fire Deck 8645
and Fire Deck 6045 are available in a variety of finishes,
Stainless Steel (standard), Factory Prepared for Field Facade
Application (Facadable), or Color Powder-Coated.

| Step 1. The Base Oven
Figure 1 represents a standard
Fire Deck 8645
oven with the optional S/S storage boxes.
The 8645 arrives with a S/S Front,
galvanized sides and top, and black painted stand. Many
customers choose to install the oven with this finish as a
"stand-alone" unit.
For more details on how the oven arrives from the factory, please visit our Unloading & Moving page. |

Step 2.
Cement Board
Customers seeking a "facaded" look,
such as tile or brick, should incorporate a
non-combustible
underlayment. This can
be accomplished one of two ways:
|
Option 1: Do-It-Yourself.
As referenced in Figure 2, order the Fire Deck
with Standard Finish and apply Wonderboard, Hardibacker,
DUROCK,
or equivalently listed non-combustible cement
board yourself.
Word to the wise: This
can be a time consuming adventure since cutting cement board
and screwing it to the S/S underneath can be difficult. Care
must be taken to avoid covering any of the critical access
or service points. To avoid these concerns, please consider
option II (see below).
Option
II: Order it "Facadable"
As referenced in Figure 3,
order the Fire Deck Factory Prepared for Field Facade
Application, or "Facadable". With this option we apply all
the non-combustible board so
that when it arrives you and your contractor can focus just
on applying your finished surface. The area prepared
for facading can be on just the front, or on the
sides and or rear as well upon specification.
Note: An added benefit of the
Facadable Fire Deck is the service panels or storage boxes
and other key edges are raised, leaving no gaps
between the finished edge and the frame. |

Step
3. The
Finished Product
The
facadable Fire Deck can be
finished with any decorative material that can be easily
affixed to the wall surface such as tile, stucco, sheet
metal, veneer brick
etc, and that does not interfere with the
operation of the heat-shield.
Please keep in mind that the thickness of finish material
applied to the oven cannot exceed 1/2 inch (1 inch including
non-combustible underlayment) or it will interfere with
operation of the heat shield.
Note: It is necessary for the proper operation of our ovens that the Radiant
Flame Control Knob be fully accessible after all finishing is completed.
