    ENCLOSING the FIREPLACE When enclosing your Element4 fireplace the use of non-combustible building materials is REQUIRED. Please read and understand the following. COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS Materials that can catch fire and burn are considered combustible. Any material that is made of, or faced with, wood, wood pulp, paper, plastic or any other material that can catch fire and burn is considered combustible.

    1. Most important, these fireplaces are NOT zero-clearance fireplaces. Unlike zero-clearance fireplaces, there is not a metal box around the Element4 fireplaces. With no metal box there are no louvers to distract your view of the fire. However, we want the cooling advantage of a metal box so your site-built, non-combustible enclosure will substitute.
