* Ceiling height is the minimum height of the room ceiling in front of
the fireplace measured from the top front edge of the fireplace.
Combustible Sidewall Clearance
The perpendicular combustible sidewall or mantel sup-
port leg (surround) clearance is 1³⁄₄" (45 mm) from the
edge of the recessed door opening.
Mantels
The height that a combustible mantel is fitted above the
fireplace is dependent on the depth of the mantel.
For the correct mounting height and widths, refer to
Figure 5.
Noncombustible mantels and legs may be installed at
any height and width around the appliance. When using
paint or lacquer, it must be heat resistant to prevent
discoloration.

WARNING: Combustible objects must not be placed
on a noncombustible mantel unless the noncombustible
mantel meets the minimum height and width require-
ments for a combustible mantel.
When using materials around the face of the fireplace,
these materials must be suitable to withstand the tem-
peratures which they will encounter. Also these materi-
als must not extend out in front of the face of the unit, in
effect recessing the unit.
If the material used for surround is not flush with the
face of the unit, then the optional surround kits will not
fit properly.
It is recommended that any material used to surround
the face of the fireplace be noncombustible (i.e. ceram-
ic tile, brick, natural stone, etc.). Combustible materials
such as drywall, are permissible.

peratures of the front of the fireplace.
