may be covered with non-combustible
material if desired.
• A non-combustible hearth is not
necessary in front of this appliance.
• The appliance is approved to install
directly on wood sub-flooring.
• Any framing construction must be
clear of stand-offs.
• Be aware that the area of 7½" x 26¼"
(19 cm x 67 cm) immediately above
the framing plate must be constructed
with non-combustible materials as
