Clearances from combustibles
Combustible mantels and surrounds require clearance from the unit to minimise the
risk of fire. Mantels and surrounds, made of combustible materials such as wood,
are allowed providing they are outside the minimum clearances shown.
Mantel needs to be a minimum of 400 mm away from the edge of the glass
A
Maximum mantel depth at 400 mm (A) is 250 mm maximum
B
Surround needs to be a minimum of 400 mm away from the edge of the glass

For every 50 mm of added mantel depth there must be an additional 100 mm of clearance from the
edge of the glass. For example:
Mantel depth A: clearance required
300 mm
350 mm
400 mm
