FLOOR PROTECTION: Floor protector must be non-combustible material, extending beneath heater and to the front/sides/rear
as indicated. The floor must be non-combustible or otherwise adequately protected from radiant heat given off by the unit and
from sparks and falling embers. A layer of thin brick or ceramic tile over a combustible floor is not sufficient. A listed hearth pad
that has a “k” value of .84 or lower meets this requirement.
In US installations, it is necessary to install a floor protector of 1/2" thick metal clad millboard (“k” value = .84) or equivalent at
least 16" (457mm) in front of glass door and 8" (203mm) to both sides of the fuel loading door. Open the door and measure 8”
(203mm) from the side edge of the opening in the face of the stove.
See *exception below.
See Alternate Materials Worksheet on
Page 8 to determine if alternate floor protection materials are acceptable.
