MANTEL CLEARANCES

In addition to meeting noncombustible material clearances, you
must also meet required clearances between fireplace opening and
mantel shelf. If you do not meet the clearances listed below, you will
need a hood.

Determining Minimum Mantel Clearance

If you meet minimum clearance between mantel shelf and top of
fireplace opening, a hood is not required (see Figure 6).

Determining Minimum Mantel Clearance When
Using a Hood

If minimum clearances in Figure 6 are not met, you must have a
hood. When using a hood there are still certain minimum mantel
clearances required. Follow minimum clearances shown in Figure 7
when using hood.

NOTICE: Surface temperatures of adjacent walls and
mantels become hot during operation. Walls and
mantels above the firebox may become hot to the
touch. If installed properly, these temperatures meet
the requirement of the national product standard.
Follow all minimum clearances shown in this manual.

NOTICE: If your installation does not meet the minimum
clearances shown, you must do one of the following:
• operate the logs only with the flue damper open
• raise the mantel to an acceptable height
• remove the mantel

FLOOR CLEARANCES

A. If installing appliance on the floor level, you must maintain

the minimum distance of 14" to combustibles (see Figure 8).

B. If combustible materials are less than 14" to the fireplace, you

must install appliance at least 5" above the combustible floor-
ing (see Figure 9).
