Installation
Precautions and Specifications
Before installation, remember to consult your local building inspector or fire marshal
to determine the need to obtain a permit. Also enquire about restrictions and installa-
tion inspection requirements in your area. If utilizing an existing chimney, it is recom-
mended that a professional mason or stove installer do a complete check-up of the
chimney, liner, and flue beforehand.
In order for the stove to work and draw properly, sufficient air supply is important. Be
especially aware of any mechanical fans (e.g. kitchen or bathroom exhaust systems)
that may affect the proper draw.
Do not use grates, andirons, or other fuel support methods. Build fire directly on
hearth.
Installation WITH or WITHOUT pedestal.
An optional pedestal base is available for use with the Q-Tee II USA (838040590 High
socket complete) and the Q-Tee II C USA (834051090 )
Warning:
Floor protection requirements specified in this manual are different de-
pending on whether the appliance is installed with or without the optional base.
When installed WITHOUT optional base.
The floor protection plate must lie under the stove and extend 24” (61cm) (30” 76cm
in Canada) in front of the stove door, 8” (20cm) beyond the sides of the fuel-loading
door, and under the pipe and 2” (5cm) beyond each side for back venting. in front of
the stove door, an 8” (20cm) floor protection is required beyond the sides of the stove
and in the back of the stove (0” in the back for the US). The floor protection needed on
the floor when used WITHOUT the base is required to have thermal protection with an
R value of 3.19 Btu*in/Hrs*ft2*°F (equal to 0.46 w/mk in SI units).
