MANTELS
Depending on the width of the mantel it may be installed
higher or lower from the top of the louvre opening. See
drawing and chart below for proper installation height of
your combustible mantel piece. Non-combustible mantels
may be installed at any height above the appliance opening.
When using paint or lacquer to finish the
mantel, such paint or lacquer must be
heat resistant to prevent discolouration.
