Mantels

The height that a combustible mantel is fitted above the fireplace is dependent on the depth of the mantel. This also applies to the distance between the mantel leg (if fitted) and the fireplace.

For the correct mounting height and widths refer to Figures 3a and 3b.

The fitting of a bay window trim kit does not effect the distances and reference points referred to in the diagram and chart.

Noncombustible mantels and legs may be installed at any height and width around the appliance.

When using paint or lacquer to finish the mantel, such paint or lacquer must be heat resistant to prevent discoloration.
