Clearances - Rinnai Symmetry RDV3611 Installation Manual

Clearances

The appliance must not be installed where curtains or other combustible materials could
come into contact with the heater. In some case curtains may need restraining. The clearances
listed below are minimum clearances unless otherwise stated.
Due to the number of different
sized Symmetry frames, all
dimensions are taken from the
edge of the glass.
Up-wall installations
If the Symmetry is being installed
up the wall, the recommended
minimum clearance to the ceiling
is 1000 mm.
Floor protection
Heat emanating from this fire may
over time affect the appearance of
some materials used for flooring,
such as, carpet, vinyl, cork or
timber. This may be amplified if
the air contains cooking vapours
or cigarette smoke. To avoid this
occurring, it is recommended that
a mat be placed in front of this
appliance.
Mantels and surrounds
A mantel and surround are
allowed providing they are outside
the minimum clearances shown.
Hearths
A hearth is not necessary but can
be used for decorative purposes
or protection of sensitive flooring
if required. A hearth must not
obscure the front of the fire.
