Hello all gurus of hearth building.
I am attempting to build a vented wall out of wonderboard in a corner to reduce clearances. I understand using the non-combustible spacers to support this wall. I wish to add slate as the final aesthetic touch and am confused as to how the wall will be supported when this vented wall is "floating" 2 inches from the floor surface and it's recommended that spacers and screws not be attached directly behind the stove. Will it hold? Is there a better option instead of using just spacers and screws?
Thanks for your wisdom and help-
Noah
