MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
The clearances listed below are minimum distances unless otherwise stated.
A major cause of fires is failure to maintain required clearances (air space)
to combustible materials. It is of the greatest importance that this fireplace
be installed only in accordance with these instructions.
Caution Requirements
The top, back and sides of the fireplace are defined by standoffs. The metal
ends of the standoff may NOT be recessed into combustible construction.
WARNING
Fire hazard is an extreme risk if these clearances (air space) to combustible
materials are not adhered to. It is of greatest importance that this fireplace
be installed only in accordance with these instructions.

thickness / height of finished hearth. The base of the fireplace should be
level or higher than the finished hearth height.
If material such as brick, stone, etc extends past the faceplate depth (38mm),
when finishing around the faceplate, the minimum opening dimensions noted
below must be adhered to ensuring for the removal of the faceplate and for the
safe operation of this appliance.
For material such as brick, stone, etc that extend up to 38mm, the minimum opening dimensions noted below must be adhered, when finishing around the faceplate. This is to ensure the removal of the faceplate and for the safe operation of this appliance.
