Clearances to Combustible Mantels
An 8”
combustible mantel may be installed at a minimum of 14" above the top of the heat outlet (41
” up from the floor level of
this Fireplace). Non-combustible (marble, brick, stone, metal etc.) mantels can be installed at any desired height above the top
convection air opening. Any pre-existing combustible mantel must fall within the approved mantel profile chart.
WARNING:
Make proper use of this chart. Do not compromise the specifications contained in this chart.
Failure to adhere to proper clearances required to combustibles may cause spontaneous combustion of the mantel and may
result in a fire causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
NOTE:
For mantels that protrude more than 8 inches from the front surface of the fireplace use a rise and run of (7:4) to
calculate the required height to the mantel.
EXAMPLE:
You have a 12" mantel. To calculate the height above the
convection air opening the equation would be: 12" x (7/4) = 21" above the convection air opening. DO NOT deviate from
this minimum clearance requirement. Doing so can lead to a severe fire hazard.
Note:
The distance from the Floor Level of this Fireplace to the Top Air Gap is 27”.
