INSTALLATION ON A CONCRETE FLOOR

An appliance installed on a concrete floor does not

require floor protection. If carpeting or any other com-

bustible floor covering is installed, a clearance around

the stove must be maintained equivalent to the size of

the floor protector described in the following section.

INSTALLATION ON A COMBUSTIBLE FLOOR

If the appliance is to be installed on a combustible floor

or floor covering, a floor protector must be inserted

under the stove and project beyond the front of the stove

a minimum of 16” (406mm) in the US or 18” (457mm) in

Canada and 8”(203mm) on all other sides. In the US

the floor protector must also be positioned under any

horizontal chimney run and project beyond the pipe a

minimum of 2” (51mm) on both sides. The floor protec-

tor must be a durable noncombustible material with a

minimum thickness of 1.0” and an R value of “2”.

To determine a material’s suitability use the following

formulas;

1. If the material has an R (Thermal resistance) rating use

the designated thickness and no conversion is needed. R

values can be added for multi-layered materials.

2. If the material has a k (Thermal conductivity) rating

convert this to an R rating using the formula R = 1/k x t

(t = thickness in inches)

3. If the material has a C (Thermal conductance) rating

convert this to an R rating using the formula R = 1/C.

CONTACT YOUR LOCAL BUILDING AUTHORITY

FOR APPROVED METHODS OF INSTALLATION

1. This appliance requires a masonry or pre-manufactured

chimney listed to CAN/ULC-S629 (Canada) and

UL103HT (USA) sized correctly.

2. If a masonry chimney is used it is advisable to have

your chimney inspected for cracks and check the

general condition before you install your unit.

Relining may be required to reduce flue diameter to

the appropriate functional size.

3. To help ensure a good draft, the top of the chimney

should be at least 3 feet (914mm) above the point of

penetration through the roof, and be at least 2

(610mm) feet higher than any point of the roof within

10 feet (3M).

4. The chimney connector shall not pass through an

attic, roof space, closet, concealed space, floor,

ceiling, wall, or any partition of combustible construction.

5. The minimum overall height of your chimney should be

15 feet (5 m) from the floor (Figure 3).

6. Do not use makeshift compromises during installation.

REFER TO CHIMNEY MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS

FLUE DRAFT CONSIDERATIONS

Location of the appliance and chimney will affect

performance. The chimney should:

• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes

the affects of wind turbulence and down drafts.

• Consider the appliance location in order to avoid floor

and ceiling attic joists and rafters. Exterior conditions

such as roof line, surrounding trees, prevailing winds and

nearby hills can influence stove performance. Your local

dealer is the expert in your geographic area and can

usually make suggestions or discover solutions that will

easily correct your flue problem.

NOTE: These are guidelines only, and may vary some-

what for individual installations.

IMPORTANT: It is highly recommended that the wood

stove and chimney be installed by a qualified installer.

(A qualified installer is a person or entity who regularly

installs wood heating products and chimneys, in the

ordinary course of their regular business.)
