that extends a minimum of 6 inches to the front, (measured from 

the glass) 6 inches to the sides and 6 inches to the rear of the 

pedestal. It is also recommended that floor protection be installed 

under any horizontal venting and extending 2 inches beyond the 

vent measurement.

note for canadian installation only:

  Per  ULC-S627-00, 

If  installed  on  a  combustible  floor,  the  need  to  provide  a 

noncombustible 

floor protector

and extending at least 17.72" (450mm) on the firing 

side and at least 7.87" (200mm) on the other sides.

In  Canada,  you  may  follow  smaller  U.S.  floor  protection 

requirements onlY if the user agrees to completely shut-

down the appliance, and allow it to cool to where all fire is 

extinguished and the combustion blower and its indicator 

light shuts off, prior to opening the firebox door or ash door.

Place  the  stove  away  from  combustible  walls  at  least  as  far 

as shown in Figures 3 and 4. Note the difference in side wall 

clearance with and without side shields. 
Note that the clearances shown are minimum for safety but do 

not leave much room for access when cleaning or servicing. 
Connect  the  power  cord  to  a  120  V.A.C.  60Hz  grounded 

receptacle. (A surge protector is recommended to protect the 

circuit board.)  Also be sure that the polarity of the outlet that the 

stove is plugged into is correct.
Prior  to  installing  the  flue  pipe,  connect  a  draft  meter.  (The 

draft meter must have a minimum range of 0-.5.) Record the 

first reading. Connect flue pipe to stove and be sure all doors 

and windows in the home are closed.  Record the second draft 

reading_______.  If the second reading is more than .05" lower 

than the first reading, check for possible restrictions or the need 

for outside air (see page 9). For more information on the draft 

test procedure, refer to Page 20.
