the fireplace to a wall, or any combustible materials, and 17 1/2" to the
38

underside of any combustible shelf materials, Figure 4.
For Top or Rear Vent applications where the Minimum mantel height
is required above the fireplace, (for an alcove or low profile shelf), ALL
Materials MUST BE NON-COMBUSTIBLE, Figure 5. The minimum
clearance is 2" from the rear of the fireplace to a wall, or any combustible
materials. 1" clearance is maintained on sides and bottom of vent runs
and 2" above horizontal vent runs to any combustible material.
The fireplace clearances are shown below:

Installing The Standoffs
To avoid elevated mantel temperatures, all H*DL*- Series gas
fireplaces are required to have the supplied standoffs installed.
The fireplace is supplied with two standoffs. Bend and install these
standoffs on top of the fireplace ensuring that the height of the standoff
maintains a 6" clearance.
