fig. 20 Mantel and trim clearances.
fireplace clearances
A fireplace installation requires special clearance between
the side of the stove and the right and left walls, the side
of the stove and the decorative side trim on the fireplace
face, and the top of the stove and the mantel.
Maximum Mantel depth (A, Fig. 20) of a combustible mantel
is 9" (230 mm). At that depth, the clearance to the stove top
(B) must be a minimum of 22¹⁄₂" (572 mm).
Top Trim (C) protruding less than 1¹⁄₂" (38 mm) from the
face of the fireplace must be a minimum of 12" (305 mm)
from the stove top. This clearance may not be reduced by
shielding.
For every 1¹⁄₂" (38 mm) increment that the trim or mantel
extends in depth, the clearance from the stove top must
also be increased by 1¹⁄₂" (38 mm).
Side Trim must have a minimum clearance of 8" (203 mm),
measured from the stove's top edge. (D, Fig. 20)
alcove clearances
The Aspen is approved for installation into an alcove con-
structed to maintain the clearances diagramed in Figure
