INSTALLATION
Due to the extreme heat this fi replace emits, the
mantel clearances are critical. Combustible mantel
clearances from top of front facing are shown in the
diagram on the right.
Note: A non-combustible mantel may be
installed at a lower height if the framing
is made of metal studs covered with a
non-combustible board.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel
and the facing is "heat resistant" or the
paint may discolour.
