FINISH TO YOUR TASTE
There are a wide variety of “finished looks” for
these fireplaces, from formal wall decor with
elaborate mantels to rustic wood paneling or
warm brick facings.
Only noncombustible materials like stone, tile,
brick, etc., may overlap the black front facing.
Do not extend these materials beyond the black
facing and into the firebox area. Be sure not to
interfere with the installation and operation of
glass doors or block the upper or lower grilles.
Seal all joints between the black facing and wall
surrounds to prevent air intrusion. Use non-
combustible caulking material only to seal the
black metal facing to the surround material on
the finished wall.

The following items are available for use in the
installation of this appliance.
The sum of all “R” values is:
.70 + .10 + .068 + .5825 = 1.4505
This would be an acceptable combination of
materials for the hearth extension since the
total calculated “R” value of all material used
exceed the required “R” value of 1.19.

FIREPLACE AND THE HEARTH EXTEN-
SION MUST BE SEALED WITH A NON-
