PACKAGE CONTENTS

WARNING
Check with local building codes and the recommended mantel clearance for your particular fireplace or stove model. Failure to do so will void the product warranty and could result in a dangerous condition.

Thermastone Statment

Thermastone mantels, by Design Specialties, are made of a proprietary mix consisting of industrial-grade glass-reinforced concrete, fiber mesh, magnesium oxide and poly-resin. The material has many years of proven performance history having been used in select outdoor heating products. Thermastone mantels are a great fire-resistant option for hearth applications. Thermastone samples have been tested to 1,382 degrees Fahrenheit, and the samples did not smoke or flame. These mantels also offer:

• Amazing realism
• Lightweight, easy installation
• Low maintenance
• Non-chalking finish

Although Thermastone mantels are high-performance, we ask installers to check with local building codes and the recommended clearance for your particular fireplace or stove model from the manufacturer. Failure to do so will void the product warranty and could result in a dangerous condition.

Thermastone mantels are designed to be installed into wood studs or masonry. We have included hardware for installation into wall studs. Installation into masonry may require different fasteners.

CAUTION
Do not overload the mantel shelf. Maximum weight limit is 100 lbs when using wood studs for mounting.

Take the corbel with the protruding threaded studs (AA) and insert them into the pre-drilled holes in the mantel (A). Add a M6 x 30mm washer (CC) and a nut (BB) on to the threaded stud (AA) and tighten with the wrench (JJ).

Hardware Used

2. NO CORBEL ASSEMBLY:
   If you do not want to include the corbels, insert hole plugs (KK) into the corbel holes found on the bottom side of the mantel (A). See figure 2.

Hardware Used

4. Determine where the mantel is going to be placed and mark its finished height and width on the wall. Using a stud finder, locate where the studs are and mark them accordingly. Mark them 1/16” down from where the desired top of the mantel will be.
   IMPORTANT: Before mounting, make sure the wooden support (C) is in the correct po-sition, with the wedged end facing upward. Move the wooden support (C) so one of the center holes is aligned with one of the studs in the center. Place a M6 x 20mm washer (II) onto the mounting screw (DD). Insert the mounting screw (DD) into the hole in the wooden support (C) and drill into the wall and stud. Use the level to confirm that the wooden support is level before drilling at least 2 more mounting screws through the wood-en support C and into the wall NOTE: Wall anchors (GG) can be added between studs for additional support.
   Ensure the wooden support (C) is level.

5. Slide the already installed support bracket (D) in the mantel (A) over the wooden support (C) so the wedges line up like in figure 4.

THERMASTONE SURFACE CARE

Our Thermastone material has been sealed to prevent staining and moisture absorption, but it does require proper maintenance to ensure the integrity of the surface. Please see below for recommendations on maintaining your Thermastone surface for years:

• Use the touch up marker (LL) provided in the event of any chipping or scratching.
• Clean any spills immediately to prevent permanent surface staining or damage.
• Blot any liquid spills with a clean, dry cloth.
• Clean your Thermastone surface with a soft, clean cloth or sponge.
• Mix a solution of warm, clean water and mild dish soap to remove any surface dirt or mild spills.
• Rinse all soap solution off of the mantel and dry it completely to prevent water spots.
• Regularly cleaning the Thermastone surface will help extend the life of the product.
• Do not use petroleum-based or abrasive cleaning products. Do not use any harsh brushes when cleaning the Thermastone surface.
• To avoid scratches and damage, do not slide products across the Thermastone surface.
