Due to the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the
mantel clearances are critical. Combustible mantel
clearances from top of front facing are shown in the
diagram on the right.
Note: A non-combustible mantel may be
installed at a lower height if the framing
is made of metal studs covered with a
non-combustible board.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel
and the facing is "heat resistant" or the
paint may discolour.
