COLD CLIMATE INSULATION

If you live in a cold climate, seal all cracks
around your appliance with noncombustible
material and wherever cold air could enter the
room. It is especially important to insulate
outside chase cavity between studs and under
floor on which appliance rests, if floor is above
ground level.

A hearth extension is not required with this
appliance. Any hearth extension used is for
appearance only and does not have to conform
to standard hearth extension installation re-
quirements.

Note: Combustible wall finish materials and/or
surround materials must not be allowed to
encroach the area defined by the appliance
front face (black sheet metal). Never allow
combustible materials to be positioned in front
of or overlapping the appliance front face.
