Due to the extreme heat this fireplace emits, the mantel clearances are critical.

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.

Mantel can be installed anywhere in shaded area or higher using the above scale.

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

This appliance is designed to be attached to two 3" (76mm) co-linear aluminium flex running the full length of the chimney. The flue length must be a minimum length of 8 ' (2.44m) and a maximum of 35' (10.7m). See chart below for minimum distances from roof. Periodically check that the vent is unrestricted.

Masonry chimneys may take various contours which the flexible liner will accommodate. However, keep the flexible liner as straight as possible, avoid unnecessary bending.

The Air Intake pipe must be attached to the inlet air collar of the termination cap.
