A combustible surface is anything that can burn
(i.e. sheet rock, wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.).
These surfaces are not limited to those that are visible
and also include materials that are behind non-combustible materials.
If you are not sure of the combustible nature of a material,
consult your local fire officials.
Remember: "Fire Resistant" materials are considered combustible;
they are difficult to ignite, but will burn.
Also "Fire-rated" sheet rock is also considered combustible.
Contact your local building officials about restrictions and
installation requirements in your area.
These dimensions are minimum clearances, but it is recommended that
you have sufficient room for servicing, routine cleaning and maintenance.
