Floor Protection
¥ When the stove is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl or other combustible material other than
wood flooring, the stove must be installed on a metal or wood protection panel extending the full
width and depth of the pedestal (Minimum 24-1/2" wide by 20" deep).
Heater Placement Requirements
¥ Heater must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the heater and vent
¥ Due to the high temperature of the heater, it should be located out of traffic and away from furniture
and draperies. Heater must be placed so no combustibles are within, or can swing within 36" of the
front of the heater (e.g. drapes, doors)
? When placed in a location where the floor to ceiling height is under 7 feet , the installation is
considered an alcove and must meet the following requirements:
¥
The alcove floor to ceiling height must be at least 58" tall
¥ The alcove must not be more than 48" deep (before the ceiling returns to 7 feet)
¥ The alcove must be at least 44-1/2" wide
¥ The stove must not be placed so the vents below or above the door, along the sides of stove, or along
the back of the heater can become blocked.
