D. Clear Space Near the Fireplace
Combustible materials must not be stored on the hearth ex-
tension. Room furnishings such as drapes, curtains, chairs
or other combustibles must be at least 4 ft (1219mm) from
the open front of the fireplace.
E. Firescreen
A firescreen is optional to control sparks. It must be in place
whenever the fireplace is in use. Glass doors or firescreens
must not be used to hold burning material inside the fire-
place. Only those glass doors specifically tested and listed
for use with the specific fireplace model should be used.
Use both hands to stabilize the screen. Ensure that the
screen is fully attached. Be careful not to stack wood close
to the front or too high that logs could roll out the front. Start
with a small fire and adjust your heat to desired setting. If
smoke spillage occurs, put on gloves and then remove the
screen and close the doors. Refer to Troubleshooting Draft
Problems on page 54.
