Finishing Around the Fireplace

Combustible mantels and mouldings may be safely installed over the
top and on the front of the fireplace provided that they do not project
beyond shaded area shown in Figure 5a. Side wall clearances are 3".

Combustible surrounds may be installed with 3" clearance to the side
of the fireplace as shown in Figure 5b.

Fireplace Facing

When selecting the finish material for your fireplace, it is important
to remember the following: BRASS TRIMS MUST NOT BE OB-
STRUCTED IN ANY WAY - to do so restricts the air supply for
the control compartments and heat exchanger it also prevents
access for servicing controls.
The face of the fireplace may be painted to match the room decor,
provided you use a heat-resistant paint. Decorative facing must not
extend past the fireplace opening at all, because it will interfere with
the access to retainers for removal of glass door.

Mantels & Surrounds

NOTE: National Canadian Gas Association mantel test requirements

are for fire hazard prevention to combustible materials.
New technology, to meet consumer and government demands for the
wise use of energy, has prompted us to manufacture many models of
fireplaces which are hot, fuel and energy efficient.
Please be aware; temperatures over the mantel will rise above nor-
mal room temperature and walls above fireplace may be hot to touch.
We recommend careful consideration be given to the effects of
elevated mantel temperatures which may be in excess of product
design, for example: candles, plastic or pictures. This can cause
melting, deformation, discoloration or premature failure of T.V. and
radio components.

Painting:

Special care is recommended by the Master Painters and Decorators
Association, when painting the fireplace surrounds, to select and ap-
ply a quality

Alkyd sealer prior to the applying of latex paints. This is

to prevent leaching of water from evaporation and causing a brownish
staining effect to paint over coats.
