C. Facing Material
• Facing and/or finishing materials must not interfere with
air flow through louvers, operation of louvers or doors,
or access for service.
• Facing and/or finishing materials must never overhang
into the glass opening.
• Observe all clearances when applying combustible
materials.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT apply combustible
materials beyond the minimum clearances. Comply with
all minimum clearances to combustibles as specified in
this manual. Overlapping materials could ignite and will
interfere with proper operation of doors and louvers.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT install drywall or other
combustible materials over the factory-installed non-com-
bustible board. Overlapping materials could ignite.
Decorative facing material thickness is measured from
the face of the factory-installed non-combustible board.
