• A SOURCE OF FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM OR SPACE HEATED SHALL BE PROVIDED WHEN REQUIRED.
• THIS STOVE IS NOT INTENDED FOR INSTALLATION IN MOBILE OR MANUFACTURED HOMES.
POSITIONING THE STOVE
It is very important to position the wood stove as close as possible to the chimney, and in an area that will favor the most ef
fi
cient
heat distribution possible throughout the house. The stove must therefore be installed in the room where the most time is spent, and
in the most spacious room possible. Recall that wood stoves produce radiating heat, the heat we feel when we are close to a wood
stove. A wood stove also functions by convection, that is through the displacement of hot air accelerated upwards and its replacement
with cooler air. If necessary, the hot air distribution from the stove may be facilitated by the installation of a blower.
• Route power cord away from unit.
• Do not route power cord under or in front of appliance.
• The wood stove must not be hooked up to a hot air distribution system since an excessive accumulation of heat may occur.
• D o n o t p l a c e a n y
combustible material
within 4’ (1.2m) of the
front of the unit.
• The clearance between
the flue pipe and a wall
are valid only for vertical
walls and for vertical
fl
ue
pipe.
• The chimney connector
must not pass through an
attic or roof space, closet
or similar concealed
space, a
fl
oor, or a ceiling.
• For Canadian installations, where passage through a wall,
or partition of combustible construction is desired, the
installation must conform to CAN/CSA-B365.
• A
fl
ue pipe crossing a combustible wall must have a minimum
clearance of 18” (457.2mm).
• To reduce
fl
ue clearances from combustible materials, contact
your local safety department.

FREE STANDING STOVE CLEARANCES
A wood stove must never be installed in a hallway or near a staircase, since it may block the way in case of
fi
re or fail to respect
required clearances. It is of the utmost importance that the clearances to combustible materials be strictly adhered to during installation
of the stove. Refer to the table below for minimum required clearances.
