Normal Surface Temperatures
WARNING: The supplied barrier screen must be installed , always, when this fireplace is in operation. Do
not place any object directly in front (within
60” from barrier screen surface ) or directly above (on the
front edge o f the mantel). This is a heat ing appliance. Areas directly in front and above this appliance will
be very hot and can damage most house hold objects if placed too close. Keep Furniture pieces at least
60” away in front of the barrier screen surface .
HINT: To greatly reduce surface temperatures surrounding this Fireplace during operation, Mendota
recommends operating the integrated convect ion air blowers which aid in cooling all surrounding surfaces.
Mendota Fireplaces comply with ANSI Z21.88-2016 Standards for maximum surface temperatures (ambient plus 117
o
F) on
exposed “combustible” surfaces adjacent to the Fireplace.
Be aware that surfaces in front of, above and adjacent to this heater appliance can be too hot to touch. As long as all required
clearances to combustibles are met and the required finishing materials are used, this appliance will perform safely. Note that
the exposed surfaces immediately surrounding the Fireplace can have surface temperatures that are too hot to touch. This level
of surface temperature is considered normal and does not indicate any hazardous situation.
Hearth Pad Temperatures
New hearth protection pads installed are required to
have a thermal insulation value of R-1.
The top exposed surface of the noncombustible hearth
pads can reach a temperature that is too hot to touch
(as high as 250
o
F). This is considered normal.
Surround Face Temperatures
Areas of the breastplate directly above the top
convection air gap of this Fireplace can be very hot (too
hot to touch(exceeding 250
o
F)) and is deemed normal.
Mantel Temperatures
Mendota Fireplaces comply with ANSI Z21.88-2016
standards for maximum surface temperatures on
exposed “combustible” surfaces adjacent to the
Fireplace. Be aware that surface in front of, above and
adjacent to this heater appliance can be too hot to
touch. As long as all required clearances to
combustibles are met and the required finishing
materials are used, this appliance will perform safely.
Note that the exposed surfaces immediately
surrounding the Fireplace can have a surface
temperature too hot to touch. This level of surface temperatures is considered normal and does not indicate any hazardous
situation.
WARNING: Surfaces surrounding this Fireplace can be very hot to the touch during operation. Carefully supervise children and
pets while this Fireplace is operating.
Suitable Mantel, Facing & Hearth Pad Materials
Use of ceramic glazed tiles as facing materials around a Mendota Fireplace is approved. Use caution when selecting tile
adhesives. Avoid premixed tile adhesives which contain products that can off gas for long periods when exposed to heat. Use
Portland cement based unmixed tile adhesives or RTV Silicone to attach ceramic glazed tiles as facing in hot areas around this
Fireplace. If using RTV silicone apply in long wavy lines and allow a minimum 48 hours cure time for the silicone to cure before
firing this Fireplace after tile application.
