| At this point, a height adjustment is necessary.
Place a pencil mark 4-7/8" from the top on all 4 channel ears. Next, measure the height of 4 existing courses of firebrick. Using this distance, place a second mark on all 4 ears as shown. The second mark indicates the top of the next course. If an adjustment greater than 1-1/4" needs to be made, insert a course of splits. If the adjustment is less than 3/4", use ordinary brick mortar. For 3/4" to 1-1/4", use castable refractory. Alternativerly, you can cut the bricks to height on a brick saw. |
