MANTELS

When the fireplace is being installed into a woodburning fireplace the minimum the mantel can be above the fire- place is governed by local building codes applicable to woodburning fireplaces. Consult local authorities having jurisdiction for these clearances.

The underside of the mantel will get quite warm. Use only finishes which are heat resistant and do not discolour.

The fitting of the bay window kit does not affect the dimensions or reference points in the mantel chart.

FRAMING & FINISHING

Before deciding on the frame dimensions and finishing materials it is important to consider the finished dimensions of the chosen fireplace trim kit (see options section of this manual).

This information is required at this stage to ensure a satisfactory finish when the trim kit is installed.

The use of wall paper adjacent to this fireplace is not recommended, as the high heat given off by this fireplace may adversely effect the bind- ers in the adhesive used to apply the wallpa- per.

FINAL FINISHING

Non-combustible materials such as brick and tile can be extended over the face of the unit (Do not cover louvres or glass door). If a Trim Kit is going to be installed, brick and tile will have to be installed flush with the side of this appliance.

HEARTH

A hearth is not mandatory but it is recommended for aesthetic purposes. We recommend a non-combustible hearth which does not obstruct louvre opening.

Cold climate installation recommendation: When installing this unit against a non- insulated exterior wall or chase, it is mandatory that the outer walls be insulated to conform to applicable insulation codes.
