INSTALLATION
CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
The clearances for the Zero Clearance Kit are 0" to combustibles (back, side and fl oor) but when planning your installation
review the clearances required for the Insert (see below) after it is installed in the Zero Clearance Kit.
Warning: Combustible facing materials must not extend inside the 1/2" (13mm) lip at the edge of the face panels.
Any non-combustible facing materials (such as ceramic tile or masonry face brick) up to 1-1/2" (38mm) thick may be used to
fi nish the area inside the 1/2" (13mm) lip on the face panels. Non-combustible tile backer board such as Wonderboard or Durock
, or metal lath or screen may be fastened directly to the front of the face panels to provide a base for attaching facing materials
if needed. The Zero Clearance Kit must be installed on a fl at, solid, continuous surface (e.g. wood, metal, concrete).

Because of the extreme heat this fi replace emits, the mantel clearances are critical.
Combustible mantel clearances from top of unit are shown in the above diagrams.
Note: A non-combustible mantel may be installed at a lower height if the framing is made of metal studs covered
with a non-combustible board.
Mantel can be installed anywhere in shaded area or higher using the above scale.
Note: Ensure the paint that is used on the mantel and the facing is “heat resistant” or the paint may discolour.
