0 - 2,54 cm Thickness-Overlap Fit Method
Both the Tonic and Martini decorative fronts are designed
to overlap finish materials 0 cm to 2,54 cm thick. See
Figure 13.6.
NOTICE: This 2.54 cm maximum not only includes the
decorative finish materials (marble, tile, slate, etc) but
also the mortar or adhesive used to attach the decorative
finish material.
The non-combustible finish material can be installed up to
the fireplace opening.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT apply combustible
materials beyond the minimum clearances. Comply with
all minimum clearances to combustibles as specified in
this manual. Overlapping materials could ignite and will
interfere with proper operation of doors and louvers.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT install drywall or other
combustible materials over the factory-installed non-com-
bustible board. Overlapping materials could ignite.
Decorative facing material thickness is measured from
the face of the factory-installed non-combustible board.
