Hi,
I am planning on installing a Lopi Freedom wood burning insert. My fireplace is masonry. It is in the corner of the room with brick facing. I need 15" of adjacent sidewall clearance for this stove. Does this measurement start at the drywall or the brick facing? Can i put the insert in the fireplace closer to the right side to gain the clearance i need? I am confused whether the brick facing is considered a combustable surface or not. Your help is appreciated.
