Combustible materials may be brought up to the
specified clearances on the side and top front edges
of the fireplace, but
MUST NEVER
overlap onto the
front face. The joints between the finished wall and
the fireplace top and sides can only be sealed with a
150
°
C minimum sealant.
WARNING:
WHEN FINISHING THE FIREPLACE,
NEVER OBSTRUCT OR MODIFY THE
AIR INLET/OUTLET GRILLES IN ANY
MANNER.
Install optional marble and brass trim surround kits
as desired. Marble, brass, brick, tile, or other non-
combustible materials can be used to cover up the
gap between the sheet rock and the fireplace.
Do not obstruct or modify the air inlet/outlet grilles.
When overlapping on both sides, leave enough
space so that the bottom grille can be opened and
the trim door removed.

AND THE FIREPLACE SURROUND (TOP AND
SIDES) ARE SEALED, A 150°
C. MINIMUM

ADHESIVE, IF NEEDED) CAN BE APPLIED AS
FACING TO THE FIREPLACE SURROUND.
