A Fireback's natural protective, reflective and decorative features are just at home behind a kitchen range, as they are as the focal point of the home's hearth.
A fireback can be simply glued to the wallboard behind a range using a flexible construction adhesive. This method is featured in an episode of This Old House which can be viewed at:

This Old House Fireback Backsplash Text Summary
For use as a backsplash a fireback can also be drilled and strapping attached to the back of the fireback with screws attaching the exposed section of the strapping passing through the wallboard to studs. A Fireback can also be drilled and directly screwed to studs behind the wallboard. A Fireback can be leaned against the wall with a spacer behind it on the bottom to insure proper balance is maintained.
It is suggested that a Fireback used as a backsplash be given a light sanding followed by a coat of High Temperature stove paint. For a more attractive and durable finish we recommend a powder coated fireback be used as a backsplash. The Tall Oak Fireback, the Stiegel Stove Plate, and the Sunrise Rooster Fireback are available with powder coating for an additional $150 added to the sale price, call for color availability, 1-484-665-3554. Any of our other firebacks can also be given a powder coating by special order. Firebacks weighing over 75 lbs., the cost to powder coat would be $250 added to the sale price.
You may also take any of our firebacks to a local powder coater, who can sandblast the casting and apply a powder coated finish of your choice.
