WARNING
When finishing the fireplace never obstruct or modify the
gap around the glass frame in any manner. Provide adequate
clearances around air openings into the combustion chamber.
CAUTION
If the joints between the finished wall and the fireplace surround
(top and sides) are sealed, a 300°F minimum sealant material
must be used. These joints are not required to be sealed. Only
non-combustible material (using 300°F minimum adhesive if
needed) can be applied as facing to the fireplace surround.
