NSTALLATION

 

Several

 

issues

 

must

 

be

 

addressed

 

when

 

selecting

 

a

 

suitable

 

location

 

for

 

your

 

new

 

Mahogany

 

Wood

 

Stove.

  

Observing

 

required

 

clearances

 

to

 

combustible

 

materials,

 

the

 

proximity

 

to

 

a

 

safe

 

chimney,

 

and

 

electrical

 

supply

 

(if

 

optional

 

blower

 

in

 

use)

 

must

 

all

 

be

 

considered.

  

In

 

addition,

 

selecting

 

a

 

location

 

that

 

takes

 

advantage

 

of

 

the

 

building’s

 

natural

 

air

 

flow

 

is

 

also

 

desirable

 

to

 

maximize

 

the

 

heating

 

effectiveness

 

of

 

the

 

stove.

  

In

 

many

 

cases,

 

though

 

not

 

all,

 

this

 

is

 

a

 

central

 

location

 

within

 

the

 

building.

The

 

stove

 

must

 

be

 

placed

 

on

 

continuous

 

(grouted

 

joints)

 

noncombustible

 

material

 

such

 

as

 

ceramic

 

tile,

material

 

suited

 

for

 

floor

 

protection.

  

Check

 

local

 

codes

 

for

 

approved

 

alternatives.

  

Clearances

 

for

 

floor

 

protection

 

are

 

measured

 

from

 

the

 

sides,

 

back,

 

and

 

face

 

(door

 

opening)

 

as

 

shown

 

in

 

Figure

NOTE:

  

For

 

Canadian

 

installations

 

you

 

are

 

required

 

to

 

have

 

18”

 

in

 

front

 

of

 

the

 

stove

 

and

 

8”

 

from

 

the

 

sides.

  

The

 

hearth

 

pad

 

for

 

Canadian

 

installations

 

must

 

have

 

minimum

 

dimensions

 

of

 

46”

 

x

 

41”.

 

 

NOTE:

  

For

 

some

 

insert

 

installations

 

you

 

may

 

be

 

required

 

to

 

use

 

a

 

hearth

 

extension

 

in

 

order

 

to

 

meet

 

required

 

clearances.

  

If

 

so,

 

the

 

extensions

 

must

 

meet

 

the

 

same

 

criteria

 

as

 

the

 

hearth.
