Hello! i have searched for days and cant find a direct answer. it just keeps coming back to Durock vs Hardie backer.
I like to keep things simple so here it goes! Im going to be putting a V.C. Intrepid 2 in a corner of my cabin. Can i place this wood stove on top of 1/2" Du Rock that is directly on the 3/4" sub-floor? I do plan on pavers or tile on top of the Du Rock.
Walls Surround? There currently is just framing and insulation. Can i install Du Rock on the walls directly to the studs and then do the finished surround spaced 1" off the Du Rock with the 1" air gap all the way around?
Thank you for any help!
