Finishing Around the Fireplace
Fireplace Facing
When sizing the finish material for your fireplace, it is important to
remember the following: THE OPENING MUST NOT BE OBSTRUCTED IN
ANY WAY - to do so restricts the air supply for the control compartments
and it also prevents access for servicing controls.

CAUTION
We recommend careful consideration be given to the effects of
elevated mantel temperatures which may be in excess of product
design, for example: candles, plastic or pictures. This can cause
melting, deformation, discoloration or premature failure of T.V. radio,
and other electronic components.
