MANTEL CLEARANCES
Mantel Clearances for this fireplace may be measured from
the top of the convection air opening
or
the floor level of this
fireplace
.
The location that is referenced normally to measure mantel clearances is the Top of the Convection Air Opening. For ease,
however, measure up from the floor level of this fireplace. The chart and diagram, in this page, provide all the reference
dimensional information necessary in determining the distance a combustible mantel may protrude out from the face surface
of this fireplace. The Chart, at right, shows the Distance from Fireplace Face the combustible mantel may protrude outward
at a Distance up From Floor Level of this Fireplace.
If you prefer to take measurements from the top of the convection air opening, note that the top of the convection air opening
is 23 inches up from the floor level of this fireplace.
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.
