Fireplace coordination

DESIGN / VERIFICATION OPEN — NOT CONSTRUCTION RELEASED

The VIS-02 room stays. The fireplace face, full-wall metal mantel, hearth and finish references are revised below.

VIS-03 — geometry/material coordination revision based on latest fireplace/hearth dimensions and confirmed Durham Hickory II flooring; supersedes VIS-02 for design geometry while retaining VIS-02 room/context reference.

VIS-03 room views

Preserve the room width, windows and spacing, ceiling geometry, existing firebox position and general proportions. At the illustrated elevation, the full-wall mantel crosses window glazing: resolve elevation, clearance and support in the field. These generated views communicate appearance; dimensioned coordination drawings and verified field measurements govern. Hearth height is TBD; any 2-in. or 3-in. visual reference is FIELD VERIFY / NOT RELEASED.

ONE CONTROLLING RECORD

Dimensions and status

CONFIRMED denotes the recorded existing-condition measurements and identified products, not construction approval. Proposed geometry is OWNER/GC DIRECTION. Unresolved values remain FIELD VERIFY.

Depth coordination: cap projects ≈6–7 in beyond stone; base ≈5–6 in beyond stone; mantel ≈1–2 in beyond cap. These are derived relationships, not additional approved dimensions.

Earlier 8¾-in floor-to-stone/opening note has an unresolved datum; do not use it to relocate the opening. Retain recorded 30½-in windowsill and 22½-in stone/window relationship as field references, subject to final remeasurement.

Wall stone

River Canyon Natural Marble Ledger Panel, Floor & Decor SKU 101022556. Preserve the larger stone character in the preferred visual with the actual ivory/cream/beige/taupe marble palette. The prior small stone inset is rejected as a color reference.

Floor

American Spirit Durham Hickory II, hand-scraped engineered hardwood, SKU 100598689. IMG_0927 is the primary color/grain reference; IMG_0928 establishes product identity.

Actual plank · Product label

Mantel

Custom dark floating metal; full fireplace-wall width; approximately 8 in beyond the finished stone. Final finish, thickness, elevation, attachment/backing and appliance clearances remain subject to approval and verification.

Existing trim

IMG_0737 provides the best close view found, corroborated by IMG_0734 and IMG_0739. Depict existing painted-white trim conservatively. Exact profile, height and thickness FIELD VERIFY; obtain a measured physical sample before matching.

02 · Room and ceiling

Room and ceiling

The stone face sits between windows beneath a ceiling that rises outward into the room. The existing firebox stays in its current position; its precise relation to the original wall datum remains to be measured.

HEATILATOR / MANUAL VERIFICATION GATE

Before construction release

Heatilator HD42 family is a working identification only. Verify data plate and exact suffix, documents 12955 (4-14-88), 12063 (6-6-88), and installed gas equipment listing. No conceptual dimension overrides applicable manufacturer clearances, service/gas access, structural backing or field measurements.

  1. Exact fireplace-wall width and mantel endpoint conditions
  2. Final forward face width/height, ceiling pitch and top scribe; 64 × 94 is existing reference
  3. Exact finished face depth within 12–13 in and component build-up
  4. Mantel thickness, elevation, window-glazing/trim conflict, finish, fabricator, structural attachment/backing and loads
  5. Hearth height TBD; 2 or 3 in reference only, not released; cap thickness, material, joints and support TBD
  6. Firebox datum, actual recession, return depth, opening transition and permitted overlap
  7. Heatilator data plate, exact model/suffix, installed gas equipment identification and applicable manuals/clearances
  8. Gas key/shutoff access, service removal paths, chimney/enclosure air spaces and circulation clearance
  9. Existing trim profile, height, thickness, paint and physical sample match

The appliance and chimney remain fixed. No fabricated firebox extension is approved. Confirm the exact gas equipment and listing; do not assume a particular insert from a render. Preserve glass/door removal, louvers, convection openings, lower service access and permanent gas-shutoff accessibility. Any valve or piping change requires separate qualified-trade review.

Revision control

VIS-03 — geometry/material coordination revision based on latest fireplace/hearth dimensions and confirmed Durham Hickory II flooring; supersedes VIS-02 for design geometry while retaining VIS-02 room/context reference.

VIS-02 and earlier geometry — SUPERSEDED / ROOM CONTEXT ONLY

VIS-02 is retained for camera positions and room context only. Its no-hearth design, 5–6-in face projection, 4-in/8-in profile studies, 72-in mantel and 4-in side overhang, and unconfirmed-flooring statements are superseded. Its small stone inset is not an approved sample. Do not build from these historical sheets.
