Mantel Clearances
Due to the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances
are critical. Combustible mantel clearances from top of front facing
are shown in the diagram on the right.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel and the
facing is "high quality" or the paint may discolour.
