:
1. Do not install the stove in a bedroom or room where people sleep in.
2. Locate the stove in a large and open room that is centrally located in the house. This will optimize heat
circulation.
3. Check clearances to combustibles and for the least amount of interference to house framing, plumbing,
wiring, etc.
4. You can vent the stove with approved pipe through an exterior wall behind the unit or pass it through
the ceiling and roof. The stove can connect to an existing masonry or metal chimney (must be lined if
the chimney is over 6” (15 cm) diameter, or over 28 inches² (180 cm²) cross sectional area).
5. This unit must not be installed directly onto carpet. If it is to be installed on a carpeted area, a solid
surface (wood, metal or approved hearth pad) must be installed between the unit and the carpet.
6. This unit uses large quantities of air for combustion; outside Fresh Air connection is
strongly
recommended
. Fresh Air
must
be connected where required by local codes.
7. Do not obtain combustion air from an attic, garage or any unventilated space. Combustion air may be
obtained from a ventilated crawlspace.
8. The power cord is 8 feet (2.43 m) long and may require a grounded extension cord to reach the
nearest electrical outlet.
