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 of the mantel). This is a heat ing appliance. Areas directly in front and above this appliance will be
very hot and can damage most household objects if placed too close. Ke
ep Furniture pieces at least 60”
away in front of the barrier screen surface.
HINT: To greatly reduce surface temperatures surrou nding this Insert during operation, Mendota
recommends operating the integrated convection air blowers which aid in cooling all surrounding surfaces.
Mendota Inserts comply with ANSI Z21.88-2016 Standards for maximum surface temperatures (ambient plus 117
o
F) on exposed
“combustible” surfaces adjacent to the Insert.
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 Insert 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.
3.2.6.1
Hearth Pad Temperatures
Pre-existing non-combustible hearth pads are approved
for use as fireproof barrier. New hearth 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.
3.2.6.1
Surround Face Temperatures
The steel surround installed on this Insert is designed to
cover the gap between the Insert body and the existing
wood burning fireplace.
Areas of the steel surround directly above the top
convection air gap of this Insert can be very hot (too hot
to touch(exceeding 250
o
F)) and is deemed normal.
3.2.6.2
Mantel Temperatures
Mendota Inserts comply with ANSI Z21.88-2016
standards for maximum surface temperatures on
exposed “combustible” su
rfaces adjacent to the Insert.
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 Insert 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 Insert can be very hot to the touch during operation. Carefully supervise children and pets
while this Insert is operating.
