  • Page 60: Flare Fireplaces - Double Glass

    OVERVIEW With an effort to make our fireplaces safer, Flare Fireplaces is offering our full line of products with safety double glass technology. The Flare Fireplace double glass is built with two layers of glass. The design allows cool air to flow between the two layers, with the help of built-in blowers, which significantly lowers the temperature of the external glass, making it safe for a brief touch.
  • Page 61: Double Glass - Instructions

    DOUBLE GLASS - INSTRUCTIONS The double glass design depends on the blower’s ability to move room temperature air from the lower air intake, up between the internal and external glass, through the chase above the fireplace, and out the upper heat release. These relatively quiet blowers cannot be turned off and are required for the continued operation of your Double Glass system.

    CLEARANCE TO SPRINKLER In a situation where a sprinkler head is installed within proximity to a Heat Release, the diagram below MUST be followed. The distance between the sprinkler head & Heat Release opening cannot be less than 60” in length at every point from the origin of the Heat Release. You must also verify the sprinkler head sensor is set to the proper heat setting so it does not activate when the room heats up from the fireplace being operated normally.
