NOTE: These clearances represent minimum distances in all cases, which, through testing in an independent laboratory to ANSI and CSA standards, will prevent fire or spontaneous combustion. We do not control the combustible materials exposed to heat by this product; therefore, an assessment must be made by the installer to prevent consequential damage of walls and flooring.
