fireplace the minimum the mantel can be above the fire-
place is governed by local building codes applicable to
woodburning fireplaces. Consult local authorities having
jurisdiction for these clearances.
The underside of the mantel will get quite

Non-combustible materials such as brick and tile can be
extended over the face of the unit (Do not cover louvres
or glass door). If a Trim Kit is going to be installed, brick
and tile will have to be installed flush with the side of this
appliance.
A hearth is not mandatory but it is recommended for
aesthetic purposes. We recommend a non-combustible
hearth which does not obstruct louvre opening.
