note:
Any remote wiring (i.e. remote control, wall switch,
and optional fan) must be done prior to final finishing to
avoid costly reconstruction.
Only noncombustible materials (i.e. brick, tile, slate, steel,
or other materials with a UL fire rating of Zero) may be
used to cover the black painted face of the appliance. It is
permissible to bring combustible wall board to the top and
side edges of the black painted face. A 300°F minimum
adhesive may be used to attach facing materials to the
black surface. If joints between the finished wall and the
fireplace surround are sealed, a 300°F minimum sealant
material (General Electric RTV103 or equivalent) must
be used.
