5. Mantel clearances — The canopy supplied with

the unit must be installed. If a combustible mantel

is installed, it must meet the clearance requirements

detailed in Figure 6.

6. Floor clearance — This firebox hearth opening (inter-

chamber floor) must be installed at least 1/" above any

combustible flooring material Figure 7 or, the firebox

hearth may be installed flush with the floor if noncom-

bustible material such as slate or marble is installed

between the base of the firebox and the combustible

flooring. The firebox may be installed directly on a

combustible floor or raised on a platform of an appropri-

ate height. Do not place firebox on carpeting, vinyl, or

other soft floor coverings. It may, however, be placed

on a flat wood, plywood, particle board, or other hard

surfaces. Be sure firebox rests on a solid continuous

floor or platform with appropriate framing for support so

that no cold air can enter room from under the firebox.
