Fireplace Facing
When selecting the nish material for your replace, it is important
to remember the following: THE ELECTRICAL CONTROL PANEL
MUST NOT BE OBSTRUCTED IN ANY WAY - to do so prevents
access for servicing controls.
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.
Painting:
Special care is recommended by the Master Painters and Decorators
Association, when painting the replace surrounds, to select and ap-
ply a quality Alkyd sealer prior to the applying of latex paints. This is
to prevent leaching of water from evaporation and causing a brownish
staining effect to paint over coats.
Mantels & Surrounds
NOTE: National Canadian Gas Association mantel test requirements
are for re hazard prevention to combustible materials.
Please be aware; temperatures over the mantel will rise above nor-
mal room temperature and walls above replace 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 can cause
melting, deformation, discoloration or premature failure of T.V. and
radio components.
