Hearth Protection; Clearances - Jøtul GI 350 DV Scan 65i Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

Clearance to Combustible
Materials
A combustible material is anything that can
burn (i.e. sheet rock, wallpaper, wood, fabrics etc.).
These surfaces are not limited to those that are vis-
ible and also include materials that may be behind
non-combustibles.
If you are unsure of the combustible nature of a
material, consult your local fire officials. "Fire Resis-
tant" materials are considered combustible: they are
difficult to ignite, but will burn. "Fire-rated" sheet
rock is also considered combustible.
The following clearances and hearth specifications
are the minimum requirements for installation into
a masonry or factory built fireplace. Mantel and wall
clearances will vary, depending upon the fireplace
facing and riser height, if needed. Use the tables and
illustrations in figs. 4 and 5 to determine the mini-
mum clearances for your installation.
Hearth Requirements
Hearth protection in front of the GI 350 DV must be
composed of any noncombustible material. It must
extend 16" forward of the firebox glass panel and
extend 18" to either side of the fireplace centerline.
See fig. 4.
