Assembly and Installation

MINIMUM CLEARANCE

TO COMBUSTIBLE WALLS

HEATER/FLOOR PROTECTOR LOCATION

Place the heater on solid masonry or solid concrete. When 

the heater is used on a combustible floor, use an Underwriters 

Listed floor protector. The floor protector must comply with 

UL Standards.  The base should extend at least 18" beyond 

the door side of the heater and should extend under the flue 

pipe if it is elbowed towards a wall. (Fig. 4).

1. 

The stove must have its own flue.  Do not connect this  

unit to a chimney flue serving other appliances.

2.  After observing the clearances to combustibles, locate  

your floor protector accordingly and carefully place the 

stove in your selected location.  Install stove pipe, elbows 

and thimble as necessary, utilizing either a recently 

cleaned and inspected masonry chimney or a UL 103 HT 

Listed Residential Type and Building Heating Appliance 

Chimney.

3.  If your chimney continues to draft excessively, then use 

a Barometric Draft Regulator.

4.  Use three (3) sheet metal screws in each stove pipe and/

or elbow joint to firmly hold the stove pipe together.  Use 

6" round black/blue stove pipe, not galvanized stove pipe .

5.  Recheck illustrations Fig. 2 through 7 to be sure you  

have the proper clearances shown from the stove and  

the connector pipe to combustible surfaces.  NOTE:  If 

a wall is only faced with brick or stone, consider it as a 

combustible wall.

6.  DO NOT install this stove in a mobile home or trailer.

7.  If you have too much draft, then install a 6" cast iron  

stove pipe damper in the first joint of the stove pipe.

CAUTION: KEEP FURNISHINGS AND OTHER 

COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE 

HEATER.
