Important
Installation Note: Wood Stone uses Hardi
Backer cement board if you order your oven “facade
ready”. Please be advised, that a
layer of Thin Set
or an approved adhesive for high heat
needs to be applied to the backer
board before the facade material,
i.e.; tile, bricks, stone, etc.
 These illustrations refer to an installation
of a Bistro 4343. The Bistro 4343 is available in a variety of finishes,
Stainless Steel (standard), Factory Prepared for Field Facade
Application (Facadable), or Color Powder-Coated.

| Step 1. The Base Oven
Figure 1 represents a standard
Bistro 4343 oven.
The 4343 arrives with S/S front, sides and top, and
a black painted stand. Many
customers choose to install the oven with this finish as a
"stand-alone" unit.
For more details on the installation
of this oven, please view our
Installation
Manual. |

Step 2.
Cement Board
Customers seeking a "facaded" look,
such as tile or brick, should incorporate a
non-combustible
underlayment. This can
be accomplished one of two ways:
|
Option 1: Do-It-Yourself.
As referenced in Figure 2, order the Bistro
4343
with Standard Finish and apply Wonderboard, Hardibacker,
DUROCK,
or equivalently listed non-combustible cement
board yourself.
Word to the wise: This
can be a time consuming adventure since cutting cement board
and screwing it to the S/S underneath can be difficult. Care
must be taken to avoid covering any of the critical access
or service points. To avoid these concerns, please consider
option II (see below).
Option
II: Order it "Facadable"
As referenced in Figure 3,
order the Bistro 4343 Factory Prepared for Field Facade
Application, or "Facadable". With this option we apply all
the non-combustible board so
that when it arrives you and your contractor can focus just
on applying your finished surface. The area prepared
for facading can be on just the front, or on the
sides and or rear as well upon specification.

Step
3. The
Finished Product
The
facadable Bistro 4343 can be
finished with any decorative material that can be easily
affixed to the wall surface such as tile, stucco, sheet
metal, veneer brick
etc.
Note: It is necessary for the proper operation of our ovens that the Radiant
Flame Control Knob be fully accessible after all finishing is completed.
Additionally, the Front Service Panel must be
removable to obtain service access and the perforated section of
the service panel should be free of obstructions to ensure
proper flow of combustion air for the burner.

Wood Stone oven models, visit the
