The face of the replace may be painted to match the room decor,
provided you use a heat-resistant paint. Decorative facing must not
extend past the replace opening at all, because it will interfere with
the access to retainers for removal of glass door.

 National Canadian Gas Association mantel test requirements
are for re 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
replaces which are hot, fuel and energy efcient.
Please be aware; temperatures over the mantel will rise above normal
room temperature and walls above replace may be hot to touch.
Side wall clearances are 3". Combustible surrounds may be installed
with 3" clearance to the side of the replace as shown in 

When covering the upper metal portion of the fireplace, up to 6” (as shown in
) with a non-combustible material. Please note the decorative facing
materials may be subject to temperatures in excess of 250°F. This should be
considered when selecting facing materials.

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 can can cause melting, deformation, discolouration or
premature failure of T.V., radio, and other electronic components.
