3 INSTRUCTIONS: These plans will walk you through each step as you Prepare, Assemble and Enjoy the new addition to your yard. Check out the Progress Bar at the bottom of each page to track your advancements as you complete each phase of your project! RESPONSIBILITIES: It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure compliance with all applicable laws, codes and regulations for any project. Proper safety precautions must be taken prior to and during the construction of each project. Please follow standard safety guidelines and wear necessary protective equipment when building and using your new backyard addition. FOUNDATION: A solid foundation is necessary to prevent settling and tiling of each project. We recommend using a leveling pad, unless local building code requires you to pour a concrete foundation or build another type of foundation. TIPS FOR BUILDING LEVELING PADS: Choose the location for the completed project; place and mark the position of the base layer of blocks. Once marked, remove the blocks and the organic top soil within the marked area. If applicable to your area, create a leveling pad with a non-frost susceptible, well graded, compacted angular gravel-sand mixture with fines (GW as per ASTM D248). The leveling pad should be a minimum of 4 to 6 inches thick. For leveling pads greater than 8 thick, the fill material shall be placed in more than one lift. Each layer or lift of fill material shall be leveled and compacted to a 95% Standard Proctor density before moving on. Once the top layer of fill material is compacted and level, place the base layer of blocks. The base layer should sit 1 to 2 inches below grade to help further prevent shifting. Use additional fill material to level the base layer as needed. * If a concrete slab is required, prepare a leveling pad using the procedures listed in the paragraphs above. The concrete shall have a minimum compressive strength of 2500 psi. A 4-inch thick concrete slab should be more than sufficient. A thickened edge and reinforcement of the leveling slabs may be required. Please consult a professional engineer for specific requirements. PREPARE TOOL CHECK LIST Level Protective Equipment Utility Knife Rubber Mallet Caulk Gun Tape Measure Disk Grinder BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Please research and follow local building codes prior to the excavation, construction and assembly of your project. Whether you plan to build the project yourself or to hire a professional, every project requires a call to mark your utility lines. Exercise caution when you work with Concrete Block designs. Wear protective safety equipment such as safety glasses, dust masks, gloves and a hard hat. 3

If not already set, place the first level of block 1-2 below grade, level and fill in any gaps. Use Level 1 as a reference to place the blocks for all remaining levels. Refer to the illustrations on the following pages to guide you through each step. Prior to adhering each level to the previously laid block, place the entire level of blocks and check to make sure it fits properly. Remove small sections at a time to place the adhesive. Let adhesive dry for a minimum of two days before using the fireplace. -Do not over apply adhesive. It may reduce effectiveness. Use mineral spirits to remove any unwanted adhesive. -All dimensions given are approximations, always build with what you have. Your measurements may vary during the assembly due to the organic nature of individual blocks as well as final glue expansion. 5 10

20 Use and Maintenance With proper use and maintenance you can enjoy this new addition to your landscape for years to come. Fireplace Use: When using your fireplace, always follow burning regulations in your area, keep the area free from combustible material and never leave a fire unattended. Refer to the fireplace insert s instruction manual for use and tips. Fireplace Maintenance: Make sure all ventilation openings are clear of debris. Wait until fireplace has completely cooled before cleaning. Refer to the instruction manual for cleaning and other maintenance tips. Concrete blocks can be cleaned by wiping down with water or gently spraying with a hose. Make sure proper drainage is allowed at the base of the fireplace. Proper drainage gives water a way to escape so it doesn t build up, seep through gaps or erode blocks. 20 ENJOY
