Hearth Requirements
NOTE: Looking Glass & Wilmington Faces require a raised fireplace – see Face Dimensions on page 32 for details.
Do not build a hearth or other
item above the baseplate (this
area must remain clear for the
access door).
If installed in front of carpet or
other flooring, the fireplace must
be raised so the base of the unit is
above the carpet surface or
flooring material.

A hearth is not required
when the fireplace is
raised above the flooring
surface.

WARNING:
A non-combustible hearth is not required. However, if
the heater is installed next to the floor, we recommend
a hearth to protect the flooring surface from
discoloration or other negative impact from the heater.
