MINIMUM MANTEL AND ENCLOSURE CLEARANCES

Mantel clearance can vary according to the mantel depth. Use the graph to help evaluate the clearance needed. Combustible materials must be installed flush with the front of the fireplace but must not cover any of the black face-area of the fireplace. Non-combustible material (brick, stone or ceramic tile) may protrude past the face of the fireplace.
