Mantels

The height that a combustible mantel is fitted above the fireplace is dependent on the depth of the mantel. This also applies to the distance between the mantel leg (if fitted) and the fireplace.

For the correct mounting height and widths refer to Figs. 4a and 4b, the following Mantel Charts.

Noncombustible mantels and legs may be installed at any height and width around the appliance.

When using paint or lacquer to finish the mantel, such paint or lacquer must be heat resistant to prevent discoloration.
