Figure 3.3 Good Faith Wall Surface Temperatures Above Appliance
E. Good Faith Wall Surface/TV Guidelines
NOTICE:
Surface temperatures listed above are taken with
a temperature measuring probe as prescribed by the test
standard used for appliance certification. Temperatures
on walls or mantels taken with an infrared thermometer
may yield increased temperatures of up to 30 degrees or
more depending on the thermometer settings and material
characteristics being measured. Use appropriate finishing
materials that are able to withstand these conditions.
For additional finishing guidelines, see Section 10 in the
appliance installation manual.
D. Wall and Mantel Temperatures
ANSI/CSA Standards
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and
Canadian Standards Association (CSA) write the safety
and performance standards to which all gas fireplaces
are tested. The following are the allowable temperatures
around and on a gas fireplace per the ANSI/CSA
standards:
Combustible Mantel and Surfaces around a Fireplace
The allowable temperature rise above ambient is
117°F for all exposed combustible surfaces around the
fireplace, including the mantel, when installed according
to the installation instructions. Non-combustible surfaces
and mantels do not have a maximum temperature limit;
however the installation instructions must still be followed
for any restrictions on placement of non-combustible
materials on or around the fireplace.
Example: The mantel above a fireplace in a room
that is 70°F is allowed to reach but not exceed
187°F (70°F+117°F = 187°F).
