 Any remote wiring (i.e. remote control, wall switch, and optional fan) must be done prior to

final finishing to avoid costly reconstruction.

Only noncombustible materials (i.e. brick, tile, slate, steel, or other materials with a UL fire rating

of Zero) may be used to cover the black surface of the appliance. A 300°F minimum adhesive may

be used to attach facing materials to the black surface. If joints between the finished wall and the

fireplace surround are sealed, a 300°F minimum sealant material (General Electric RTV103 or

equivalent) must be used.
