Due to the extreme heat this fireplace emits,
the mantel clearances are critical.
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.
Mantel can be installed anywhere in shaded area
or higher using the above scale.
note: ensure the paint that is used
on the mantel and the facing is
"heat resistant" or the paint may
discolour.
