INSTALLATION

CLEARANCES MANTELS

The clearances listed below are Minimum dis- tances unless otherwise stated:

A major cause of chimney related fires is failure to maintain required clearances (air space) to combustible materials. It is of the greatest importance that this fire- place and vent system be installed only in accordance with these instructions.

Clearance to Combustibles from:

Back 0" (0mm)

Side 0" (0mm)

Floor 0" (0mm)

Minimum Clearance from Louver to:

Mantel	min. 7"	(177mm)
Ceiling	36"	(914mm) from top
		of louvers
Side Wall	6"	(152mm)
Vent	1-1/2"	(38mm) Flex
	1-1/4"	(32mm) Rigid Pipe
Alcove Clearances:
Max. Depth	36"	(914mm)
Min. Width	52"	(1321mm)
Min. Height	90"	(2286mm)

Because of the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances are critical. Combustible mantel clearances from louver are shown in the diagram below.

Note: A non-combustible mantel may be installed at a lower height if the framing is made of metal studs covered with a non-combustible board.

This drawing is to scale at 1:6 (one inch = 6 inches)

Mantel can be installed anywhere in shaded area using the above scale for units with the Flush Front and with the optional Bay Front.

WARNING

Fire hazard is an extreme risk

if these clearances are

not adhered to.

The HeatWave Duct Kit

and the Heat Release Kit have different clear- ance and framing re-

Heat Release Kit quirements, check the HeatWave and Heat

Release manual for de- tails.

Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel and the facing is "heat resistant" or the paint may discolour.
