Clearances to Combustibles
The clearances listed are MINIMUM distances.
Measure the clearance to both the appliance and
the chimney connector. The farthest distance is
correct if the two clearances do not coincide.
For example, if the appliance is set as indicated in
one of the figures but the connector is too close,
move the stove until the correct clearance to the
connector is obtained.
This appliance may be installed only with the
clearances as shown in the situations pictured.
Do not combine clearances from one type of
installation with another in order to achieve
closer clearances.
This unit can be installed on a solid combustible
surface like a wood floor. This unit can also be
installed directly on carpeting or vinyl.
Use the minimum clearances shown in the dia

*IMPORTANT
If installed in an alcove the clearance on one side
must be a minimum of 9 inches. The other side
would need to be a minimum of 21 inches as a
result of the clearance being 50 inches in length
when installed in an alcove.
If the minimum of 9 inches is increased on one
side, the other side could be decreased if the alcove
was 50 inches.
