Giardino Installation and Operating Manual10. Igloo Enclosure10.1 The sections of an Igloo oven.OverviewThe Igloo is a traditional Italian and Mediterranean pizzaoven design style where the enclosure follows the basiclines of the oven dome and chimney -- thus the Igloo.InstructionsThere are two ways of making the Igloo shape, both ofwhich follow the guidelines set forth in Graphic 9.1. First,you can create the Igloo using stucco lathe and insulatingconcrete. The insulating concrete is then covered with athin finish coat of waterproof stucco.Second, the Igloo shape can be created with rebar andstucco lathe, separately from the dome. Drill 1/4” holesaround the perimeter of the oven hearth, the distance youwant away from the exterior of your oven, to accommodateyour insulation thickness. Insert pieces of pencil rebar inthe holes, and bend them to the desired Igloo shape. Coverthe pencil rebar with stucco mesh, and secure it in placewith concrete tie wire to make the Igloo frame solid.10.2. The oven dome and lathe shape the Igloo.Cover the entire structure with a 1/2"-3/4" undercoat ofstucco, followed by a finish stucco coat to the style youprefer.

Attach the bottom plate to the concrete hearth slabusing concrete screws. Set metal studs every 16" in thebody of the wall to support the concrete board.Interlock the top two metal stud top plates at each cornerto give the structure more strength. Set two vertical studsat each corner for a larger face to attach the concreteboard, and to give the structure more strength.11.1.
