micore 300 in colorado

[rdrcr56]

Does anyone know where I can find the elusive micore 300 in colo. I have a hearthstone homestead and want to build the hearth pad with two layers of micore and two layers of durock in alternating layers. Oh yeah I should narrow that down to the Denver, Ft. collins area. If I cant find micore could I stack 5 sheets of gypsum and 1 durock with tile on that.

Sorry about that,I went to the USG micore site and checked their distributor list and that one was not on it. All the places they had listed didn't show micore 300 as being carried?

When we built the hearth for our Hearthstone Phoenix in Feb. we just needed one sheet of Micore 300, so I am surprised you need two. But anyway, we couldn't find anywhere locally that officially sold it to consumers. However, our fireplace store that was selling us the stove and installing it agreed to sell us a sheet of their Micore. They build hearths for lots of people, so they had it and said we could buy it from them. It was about $50 for a 4 x 8 ft. sheet. So ask your local fireplace/woodstove stores if they will sell you a sheet or two. Most anyplace that builds a lot of hearths would probably have some.
