Hazard identified
Convective heat (heated air only) can escape from behind the fireplace trim and overheat. While there is no evidence of a fire risk or significant charring, the stream of convective heat could cause possible discoloration of the adjacent wood studs or, over a period of time, charring of the wood behind the trim.
Miles Industries Ltd. has received one report of discoloration in Canada, and no reports of injuries. In the United States, the company has received no reports of charring or discoloration, and no reports of injuries.
