Finishing Around the Fireplace
All fireplace facing must be non-combustible. Non-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 3. Side wall clearances are 3". Only non-combustible
surrounds may be installed around and on the facing of the fireplace
as shown in Figure 3b.
Fireplace Facing
When selecting the finish material for your fireplace, it is important to
remember the following: THE LOWER GAS CONTROL PANEL MUST
NOT BE OBSTRUCTED IN ANY WAY - to do so restricts the air supply
for the control compartments and heat exchanger it also prevents
access for servicing controls.
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.
WARNING:
When this appliance is installed directly on any combustible
material other than wood flooring, it must be installed on a
metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of
the appliance.
