Mantel Clearances
Due to the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances are critical. Combustible mantel clearances from top of front facing are shown in
the diagram on the right.
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. The non-
combustible mantel when installed at
a lower overall height may not be lower
than 6 inches from the top of the fireplace
opening.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the
mantel and the facing is "High Quality"
or the paint may discolour.
