WARNING
FINISHING MATERIAL
NOTE:
Any remote wiring (i.e. remote control, wall switch,
and optional fan) must be done prior to final finishing to
avoid costly reconstruction.
Only noncombustible materials (i.e. brick, tile, slate, steel,
or other materials with a UL fire rating of Zero) may be
used to cover the black surface of the appliance. A 300°F
minimum adhesive may be used to attach facing materials
to the black surface. If joints between the finished wall
and the fireplace surround are sealed, a 300°F minimum
sealant material (General Electric RTV103 or equivalent)
must be used.
