Hearth considerations
You need to know whether there will be a hearth or
not in front of the appliance and some rules must be
considered:
Without hearth
In the case where there is no hearth, the bottom of the
appliance must be raised at least 4" inches (102 mm)
above any combustible fl oor in front.
With hearth
• The bottom of the appliance must be installed level
with the top of the hearth surface in most cases
other than with the 4-sided surround which hangs
below the bottom of the appliance.
• Only a non-combustible hearth can be installed in
front of the appliance if within 4" vertically of the
bottom of the appliance.
• The non-combustible hearth in front of the
appliance, if within 4" of the bottom of the appliance,
must include the 1/2" Micore insulation board
provided to be used as thermal break between non-
combustible and combustible material underneath.
