A. Design, Installation & Location Considerations
1. Appliance Location
Consideration must be given to safety, convenience, trafc
ow, and the fact that the appliance will need a chimney and
chimney connector. It is a good idea to plan your installation
on paper, using exact measurements for clearances and
oor protection, before actually beginning the installation.
When installing on a combustible oor, proper oor
protection material must be used. See page 12 for details.
Maintain specied vent clearance to combustible
requirements listed by the vent manufacturers instructions
and all clearance to combustibles listed in this manual.
Check with your local building code agency before you begin
your installation. Be sure local codes do not supersede UL
specications and always obtain the required permit so
that insurance protection benets cannot be unexpectedly
cancelled. If any assistance is required during installation,
please contact your dealer.
We recommend that a qualied building inspector and your
insurance company representative review your plans before
and after the installation.
Be sure to provide a source of fresh air to the room or
directly to the appliance. Make-up air is needed to replace
what the chimney draws away through the appliance.
Consider attaching outside air to the appliance. Certain
conditions can create negative pressure within the dwelling.
When this occurs, you may have trouble operating the wood
stove. Worse yet, it may be strong enough to allow smoke
leakage from the appliance. Installation on lower levels and
in basements can be especially affected.

DUCT OR SYSTEM.
B. Fire Safety
Maintain the designated clearances to combustibles. In-
sulation must not touch the chimney. You must maintain
the designated air space around the chimney. This space
around a chimney is necessary to allow natural heat re-
moval from the area. Insulation in this space will cause a
heat buildup, which may ignite wood framing. NOTE: Clear-
regulatory authority having jurisdiction.
To provide reasonable re safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
1. Install at least one smoke detector on each oor of your
home. Detectors should be located away from the heat-
ing appliance and close to sleeping areas. Follow the
smoke detector manufacturer's placement and installa-
tion instructions, and be sure to maintain regularly.
2. A conveniently located Class A re extinguisher to con-
tend with small res resulting from burning embers.
3. A practiced evacuation plan, consisting of at least two
escape routes.
4. A plan to deal with a chimney re as follows:
In the event of a chimney re:
a. Evacuate the house immediately.
b. Notify Fire Department.
c. Never apply water to a suspected chimney re.
Serious damage could occur.
