than 1”(25mm) above the

If installed near carpet or other
combustible flooring, the fireplace
must be raised so the base of the

A non-combustible hearth is not required. However, if
the heater is installed next to the floor, we recommend
a hearth to protect the flooring surface from
discoloration or other negative impact from the heater.
