MANTEL CLEARANCES
In addition to meeting non-combustible material clearances, you must also meet
required clearances between fireplace opening and mantel shelf. If you do not
meet the clearances listed below, you will need a hood.
Determining Minimum Mantel Clearance
If you meet minimum clearance between mantel shelf and top of fireplace
opening, a hood is not required (see Figure 6).
Determining Minimum Mantel Clearance
When Using a Hood
If minimum clearances in Figure 6 are not met, you must have a hood. When
using a hood there are still certain minimum mantel clearances required.
Follow minimum clearances shown in Figure 7 when using hood.
NOTICE: Surface temperatures of adjacent walls and mantels be
-
come hot during operation. Walls and mantels above the firebox may
become hot to the touch. If installed properly, these temperatures
meet the requirement of the national product standard. Follow all
minimum clearances shown in this manual.
NOTICE: If your installation does not meet the minimum clearances
shown, you must do one of the following:
• operate the logs only with the flue damper open
• raise the mantel to an acceptable height
• remove the mantel

distance of 14" to combustibles (see Figure 8).
