Clearances
When installing a shelf over the top of the fireplaces, the following
guidelines must be adhered to:
For Rear Vent applications, the minimum clearance is 1" from the
rear of the fireplace to a wall, or any combustible materials, and
11" clearance from the top of the fireplace to the underside of any
combustible shelf materials.
For Top Vent applications, the minimum clearance is 1" from the
rear of the fireplace to a wall, or any combustible materials, and 17
1/2" to the underside of any combustible shelf materials.
1” clearance is maintained on sides and bottom of vent runs and
2” above horizontal vent runs to any combustible material.

Installing The Standoffs
To avoid elevated mantel temperatures, all
H*38PR*
gas
fireplaces are required to have the supplied standoffs installed.
The fireplace is supplied with two standoffs. Bend and install these
standoffs on top of the fireplace ensuring that the height of the
standoff maintains a 8" clearance.

Nailing Flange Extension
The 4" nailing flange extension is shipped attached to the top edge
of the fireplace, see
Figure 1
.
The nailing flange extension may be substituted with a piece of
NON-
Combustible
material of the same thermal characteristics, ie:
cement board or equivalent to fit the opening. This is recommended
in applications where the facing materials will not adhere to the
metal nailing flange. To remove the Nailing Flange Extension follow
the directions below:
