2.0 USES
The lsokern fireplaces are wood-burning that are constructed in the field using prefabricated cementitious
blocks.
3.0 DESCRIPTION
3.1 Sotid-fuel-burning Fireplaces: lsokem.JftilUlHf1$UfU$ttft1i, 42Jnch, and 46lnch with DM
Ghimney; and Magnum Fireplace Series Models 28, 36, 42,48,60 and 72with DM54 Chimney:
lsokern fireplaces and DM54 chimney systems are modular refractory units designed for field assembly. The
units consist of interlocking precast parts that are fitted together in the field using a premixed mortar called
Earthcore mortar, supplied with the units, to form a solid-fuel-burning fireplace and chimney system. The
refractory parts are manufactured using a proprietary mixture of volcanic pumice aggregate and aluminate
cement.-The firebox, smoke dome and chimney outer casing are manufactured with medium-density
material, and the flue liner with high-density material. High-temperature refractory firebricks, a minimum of
1 1/g inches (28.6 mm) thick, are provided to line the interior of the firebox. The firebox is available in sizes noted
in Table 2. See Figures 1 through 3 for further details'

Most Widely Accepted and Trusledtcc-Es"
ESR-2316 Page 3 of 12
Structural design calculations and construction plans prepared by a licensed design professional are required
to determine the requirements for the fireplace foundation and anchorage of the fireplace to the foundation.
When installation is on wood floor construction, the licensed design professional must determine the
requirements for support and anchorage for the combined gravity and seismic loading. The applicability of the
seismic design parameters in Table 1, for Seismic Design Categories C, D, E and F, must be verified with due
consideratioi oi the flexinility of anchorage and supports. ln addition, the calculated long-term deflection of the
wood members supporting the fireplace must not exceed the values shown in IBC Table 1604.3 for floor
members. Under the lRC, Ln engineered design must be provided in accordance with IRC Section R301'1.3'
4.3 Installation:
4.3.1 General: A noncombustible foundation, adequate to support all required loads, is necessary and must
be approved by the building inspector. Fire-Lite systems may be installed on combustible systems' For
combustible supporting systems, installation of a 3-inch-thick (76 mm) Earthcore base plate is required before
placement of itre fireUox hearth components. The Fire-Lite system firebox is assembled following the
manufacturer's published instructions. For Seismic Design Categories C, D, E and F, anchorage of the
fireplace unit to the foundation or supporting floor must be designed as described in Section 4.2. Units are
assembled on the foundation by installing the base plate, firebox wall sections, damper assembly, and smoke
dome. Earthcore Mortar is mixbd with water until smooth and without dry spots and is then poured into the
supplied Earthcore application bag and applied to one adjoining component face of each joint. A 1/z-inch-wide
(t2.Zmm)lineof mortarisappliedl/zinch (12.7mm)fromall edgesof thefacewithtwolongitudinal lines
between. fulortar must be exposed at the joints when components are joined, and the excess must be smoothed
out. The firebox hearth, side walls and back wall are then lined with approved refractory bricks a minimum of
11/e inches (28.6 mm) thick, except for the Magnum Models 60 and 72, which require minimum 4-inch-thick
(1 01 .6 mm) approved refractory bricks, complying with ASTM C27 or ASTM C1261 , at the side walls using a
iefractory mortar, complying with ASTM C199, recommended by Earthcore lndustries, LLC.
4.g.2 Glearances: Minimum clearance from the fireplace opening to side walls is 26 inches (660 mm).
Sheathing and trim must be kept at least 8 inches (203 mm) from the opening. Combustible mantles must be
at least i inches (356 mm) above the opening. A noncombustible hearth extension is necessary and must
extend a minimum of 20 inches (508 mm) in front and 12 inches (305 mm) beyond each side of the fireplace
opening.
For the Magnum Series Models 60 and 72, minimum clearance from the fireplace opening to side walls
is 48 inches laOS mm;. Sheathing and trim must be kept at least 9 inches (228 mm) from the opening.
Combustible mantles must be at ieast 24 inches (610 mm) above the opening. A noncombustible hearth
extension is necessary and must extend a minimum of 30 inches (762 mm) in front of and 12 inches (305 mm)
beyond each side of the fireplace opening.
4.3.3 DM54 Ghimney Systems: The DM54 chimney system must be supported from the top plate of the
smoke dome. The chimney is assembled starting with a 6-inch-high (152 mm) liner that offsets the joints in the
octagonal inner Earthcore liner from those in the square outer chimney casing. The mortar mix is applied in all
jointi as previously described. The outer chimney blocks have provisions for installation of reinforcing bars.
bnirn"ys may include offsets with a maximum horizontal distance of 6 feet (1829 mm) which is 24 offset
blocks in sequence. The offset blocks are supplied by Earthcore lndustries, LLC. The fourth and sixth offset
blocks and every third block thereafter must be supported by a concrete block support wall. Where required
by the code official, details of the support wall construction must be provided.
The portion of the chimney exposed to the exterior must be covered with weather protection material such
as exterior plaster or brick veneer, in accordance with the applicable code. Terminations must comply with
IBC Section2113.9 and IRC Section R1003.9. Where required by the code official, an approved spark arrester
comptying with 2021,2018,2015,2012|BC Section 21'13.9.2,2009 and 2006 IBC Section 2113.9'1 or
tRC R1003.9.2, as applicable, must be used. Under the 2021 ,2018,2015,201218C and lRC, a chimney cap
must be installed in accordance with IBC Section 2113.9.1or IRC Section R1003.9.1, as applicable'
For installations with vertical chimneys, the fireplace and chimney may be installed with zero clearance to
combustibles, except that the Magnum series units require a minimum 11lz-inch (38 mm) clearance on the
sides and back of the firebox and smoke chamber. When offset blocks are used, the system must be installed
with minimum 1l/z-inch (38 mm) clearance on the sides and back of the firebox and smoke chamber, and with
zero clearance on the top; the chimney is installed alzero clearance to combustibles. Except as noted in this
section for clearances to combustibles, chimney fireblocking must be in accordance with IBC Section 21'13'20
and IRC Section R1003.19, as applicable.
