the unit, excluding the standoffs (see Figures 37 & 38).
The distance from the unit to combustible construction is to
be measured from the unit outer wrap surface to the com-
bustible construction, NOT from the screw heads that se-
cure the unit together.

date wall coverings and fireplace facing material. The dia-
