A Note on Mantels & Surrounds
National Canadian Gas Association mantel test requirements are
for fire hazard prevention to combustible materials.
New technology, to meet consumer and government demands
for the wise use of energy, has prompted us to manufacture many
models of fireplaces which are hot, fuel and energy efficient.
Please be aware; temperatures over the mantel will rise above
normal room temperature and walls above the fireplace may be
hot to touch.
We recommend careful consideration be given to the effects of
elevated mantel temperatures which may be in excess of product
design, for example: candles, plastic, or pictures. This elevated
heat can cause melting, deformation, discoloration or premature
failure of a TV and radio components.
Finishing: Mantels and Surrounds
Combustible mantels may safely be installed over the fireplace
provided that they do not project beyond the shaded area shown
in Figure 5:
