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).
E. Good Faith Wall Surface/TV Guidelines
If installing a television (TV) above the appliance, see
appliance Installation Manual Section 2.B and 10.C.
