Mantel Requirements
Use the table below to determine the maximum mantel depth allowed. The mantel depth (measured
from the face of the fireplace) must fall in the shaded portion of the table.
Any material that protrudes more than 3/4" from the non-combustible facing is considered a mantel
and must meet the mantel requirements.

If you have a tapered mantel, measure the
mantel height at the point where it
protrudes 3/4" in front of the face.

Mantel
(combustible or non-combustible)
Combustible mantel columns (legs) that
protrude more than 3/4" from the glass
frame must meet the sidewall clearance (1"
from the face). If they protrude 3/4" or less,
they do not have a minimum clearance.
Non-combustible mantel columns do not
have a minimum clearance.
