If this measurement is
less than 500mm, a custom surround
will be required.
Ensure that extra depth required at ‘B’ is also added to the
hearth measurement “K”.
Built-in fi re clearances don’t apply in a non-combustible cavity. The
above clearance to combustibles on the fl ue are only applicable within
the fi re envelope. Clearance outside this, eg at a ceiling/wall thimble
reverts to 25mm as per ARS fl ue test 05/1185.
If installing a fl oating hearth, ensure suffi cient clearance is left below
the fi re to allow for installation of the chosen surround.
