Hi folks, I am looking at installing a Princess insert in my fireplace, and need to determine if I have proper clearances. In the clearances chart for the Princess, it says it needs 20” from “top of door opening to mantel”. But I can’t find the height of the top of the door opening anywhere in the specs, so don’t know if I have the 20”.

Could someone with a Princess 29 insert measure from the floor to the top of their door opening for me?

Thanks!

PS here’s a pic with measurements of the fireplace
