FLOOR CLEARANCES
A. If installing appliance on the floor level, you must maintain
the minimum distance of 14" to combustibles (see Figure 8).
B. If combustible materials are less than 14" to the fireplace, you
must install appliance at least 5" above the combustible floor-
ing (see Figure 9).
NOTICE: If your installation does not meet the mini-
mum 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
NOTICE: Surface temperatures of adjacent walls and
mantels become 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.

MANTEL CLEARANCES
In addition to meeting noncombustible material clearances, you
must also meet required clearances between fireplace openings and
mantel shelf on each side of the fireplace. If you do not meet the
clearances listed in this section, 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.
