CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES

IMPORTANT:

 The GF40-2 must have a Hearth Pad when installing the unit on a combustible floor. The included hearth pad meet all the 

requirement of a proper hearth pad. If you do not use the included hearth pad a certified non combustible Hearth Pad with a minimum R Value of 

at least 0.84 must be placed underneath the unit and extend six inches in front of the unit measured from the glass. If the GF40-2 is installed on 

carpet the use of a solid non combustible Hearth Pad must be used under leveling legs.

These dimensions are minimum clearances but it is recommended 

that you ensure sufficient room for servicing, routine cleaning and 

maintenance.

The unit may be installed in an alcove if desired. These minimum
