short answer is...
No.
If you have a plan it should be there. If you don't maybe you need to consult the mason if it's a true custom job or the manufacturer if it is some form of prefab.
I figure some heads will explode on this forum if you don't have a real set o' blue prints. Not mine.
The size of the fireplace opening directly effects the size of the damper and the flue tile / chimney. Google fireplace design.
thank you i will try that. i have a floor plan but it does not give those measurements. just trying to find out if there is a minimum size for yhe hole in the floor and for the header in the wall
