Installation
MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE WALLS US, CANADA
HEATER/FLOOR PROTECTOR LOCATION (Dimensions are required for
non-protected surfaces. See chart for dimensions for protected surfaces.)
Place the heater on solid masonry or solid concrete. When the heater
is used on a combustible oor, use an Underwriters Listed oor protector.
The oor protector must comply with UL Standards (USA) and CAN/ULC
(Canada) and have an R-value of 2.06. The oor protector needs to
extend at least 16" beyond the door side of the heater and 8" to each side.
It should also extend 8" beyond the rear for Canada. The oor protector
needs to extend 2" beyond each side of the ue pipe if it is elbowed
towards a wall as well as 2" on each side of the ue for horizontal runs.
1. After consulting the installation instructions for minimum clearances
to combustibles, locate your oor protector accordingly and
carefully place the stove in your selected location. Install stove pipe,
elbows and thimble as necessary, utilizing either a recently cleaned
and inspected masonry chimney (properly lined) or a UL, ULC Listed
chimney. Insure that the xed ue bafe that is provided is installed
in the ue collar. This bafe is intended to be in a xed location for
optimal combustion. Do not remove or alter the location of this
bafe. It is against federal regulations and will void your warranty.
2. Again, check the following illustrations and be sure you have the
clearances shown from the heater and the connector pipe to
combustible surfaces. If you have a solid brick or stone wall behind
your heater, please consult your local building code for specic
regulations that may apply in your area. However, if the wall is only
faced with brick or stone, consider it a combustible wall. To reduce
ue clearances from combustible materials, contact your local
safety department.
3. If your chimney drafts excessively, purchase and use a Barometric
Draft Regulator (DR6 available from factory).
4. The chimney connection should be as short as possible, and the
heater must have its own ue. Do not connect this unit to a chimney
ue serving other appliances.
5. Use three sheet metal screws in each stove pipe and or elbow joint
to rmly hold the pipe together. Seal around the screws
6. Do not install this heater in a mobile home or trailer.
7. Check your local building and insurance codes. The installation must
comply with their rulings.
