COLD CLIMATE INSULATION

If you live in a cold climate, seal all cracks around your appliance with noncombustible material
and wherever cold air could enter the room. It is especially important to insulate outside chase
cavity between studs and under floor on which appliance rests, if floor is above ground level.
Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds
and other appliance trim, may be installed on
the appliance front face with these exceptions:
they must not cover any portion of the glass or
louvers; they may cover any portion of the top
radiant panel or the air gaps surrounding the
top radiant panel up to the installed hood.
Vertical installation clearances to combustible
mantels vary according to the depth of the
mantel. See
Figure 61
. Mantels constructed
of non-combustible materials may be installed
at any height above the appliance opening;
however, do not allow anything to hang below
the hood.
A hearth extension is not required with this
appliance. If a hearth extension is used, do not
block the lower control compartment door.
Any hearth extension used is for appearance
only and does not have to conform to standard
hearth extension installation requirements.
Note: Combustible wall finish materials and/or
surround materials must not be allowed to
encroach the area defined by the appliance
front face (black sheet metal). Never allow
combustible materials to be positioned in
front of or overlapping the appliance front
face. See Figure 58 and Figure 59.
