Combustible shelf
To install any combustible shelf, refer to figure 17 for a safe installation. For example, a shelf
with a 6'' depth (152 mm) must be installed at least 50" (127 cm) above the base of the
fireplace. Different shelf dimensions are listed in figure 17 in order to facilitate installation.
However, the minimum depth of the shelf is 6" or less. If the depth of the shelf is not listed in
the table, add 44'' (112 cm) to the depth of your shelf to obtain the safe positioning of your
shelf. For example, for a 9'' shelf, the safe positioning would be 53'' (44 inches + 9 inches).
