You must have noncombustible material(s) above
the replace opening. Noncombustible materials
(such as slate, marble, tile, etc.) must be at least
1/2" thick. With sheet metal, you must have non-
combustible material behind it. Noncombustible
material must extend at least 8" up (for all models).
If noncombustible material is less than 12", you
must install the replace hood accessory. Even if
noncombustible material is more than 12", you
may need the hood accessory to deect heat away
from your mantel shelf. See Figure 5 on page 9 and
Figures 6 and 7, for minimum clearances.
