The unit must be raised to accommodate flooring thickness. Always ensure convective air gaps
around the unit remain unobstructed. Combustible flooring can be used but
make sure to review the
maximum allowable temperature for your specific flooring material. Since every home and installation is
unique, temperatures should be verified at the time of install. A hearth should be installed if temperatures
exceed the manufacturers maximum allowable temperature.
