Determining Minimum Mantel
Clearance When Using a Hood

If minimum clearances in Figure 7 are not
met, you must have a hood. When using a
hood there are still certain minimum mantel
clearances required. Follow minimum clear-
ances shown in Figure 8 when using hood.

FLOOR CLEARANCES

A. If installing appliance on the floor level,

you must maintain the minimum distance
of 14" to combustibles (see Figure 9).

B. If combustible materials are less than

14" to the fireplace, you must install
appliance at least 5" above the combus-
tible flooring (see Figure 10).
