SINGLE WALL PIPE-MINIMUM CLEARANCES FOR USA/CANADA
Some example of clearance reduction;
Using heat shields on back and sidewalls allowing at least 1" of space away from the
walls for ventilation. The inch spacing is necessary to ensure air circulation between
the protection and the wall so that the wall is not subject to high temperatures. The
spacer used must be non-combustible. Another method to achieve the same type of
protection is using brick or masonry with 1" air space between the brick or masonry
and the wall.
When reducing distances, please check local codes and consult with
professional installer. Reduced installation must comply with NFPA 211 or CAN/
CSA-B365
- WARNING: Do not place stove to close to the shield. There should be enough space
between for proper air ventilation.
