Page 12: Hearth Requirements
Hearth Requirements General Hearth Considerations SAFETY WARNING! The Ventana is a very effective radiant heater. The hearth/floor in front of the heater can get very hot (in excess of 200ºF). Locating the unit raised above the hearth/floor or adding one of the optional screen fronts or a generic freestanding screen in front of the unit can greatly reduce hearth temperatures. - Page 13 Hearth Requirements Rules Any hearth/floor in front of fireplace within 4” of bottom of unit must be non-combustible and project a minimum distance as shown on page 14. The hearth/floor must have a non-combustible finish applied over the 1/2” insulation board provided with the engine. This insulation board acts as a thermal break. Minimum hearth projection is determined by a combination of the height of the hearth above the surface of combustible floor or carpet and distance between hearth and bottom of fireplace.
