MANTEL CLEARANCES
In addition to meeting noncombustible material clearances, you must also meet required clearances between
the replace opening and mantel shelf. A replace hood is required if the below clearances are not met.
Determining Mantel Clearances:
If you meet the minimum clearance requirements between the mantel shelf and the top of the replace
opening, you do not require a replace hood (see Fig. 5).
Determining Minimum Mantel Clearance When Using a Hood:
If the minimum clearances in Fig. 6 are not met, you must use a hood. When using a hood there are still
certain minimum mantel clearances required, as shown in Fig. 6.
NOTICE: When operating the heater, the surface temperature of adjacent walls and mantels become hot. Walls
and mantels above the rebox may become too hot to touch. If installed properly, these temperatures meet
the requirement of the national product standard. Follow all minimum clearances shown in this manual.
NOTICE: If your installation does not meet the minimum clearances, you must only operate the heater with
the ue damper open, or you must raise the mantel to an adequate height.
