FIREPLACE CLEARANCES

Minimum Clearances to Combustible Materials
Appliance and Vent Clearances
The appliance is approved with maintained minimum clearance to combustible materials
as shown in the diagrams provided.
Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other appliance trim, may be installed
on the appliance face so long as it maintains the minimum clearances between the
appliance and the non-combustible material. Surrounding material is not allowed to
transfer weight to the unit or be connected in any way to the unit. They must not cover
any portion of the removable glass panel or the control compartment.
The minimum clearances (air space) to combustible materials must be adhered to. It is of
the greatest importance that the fireplace and vent system be installed only in accordance
with these instructions.
