7.4 Reducing Wall and Ceiling Clearances Safely
It is often desirable to reduce
the
minimum
installation
clearances by placing the stove
closer to walls so the installation
takes up less floor space. You
can safely reduce the minimum
clearances
by
permanently
installing a shield between the
stove and combustible material.
The rules for safe shields can
be complicated, so read them
carefully
and
follow
them
exactly. Note that there may be
minor regional differences in
clearance reduction rules so be
sure to check with your building
or
fire
inspector
before
proceeding.

1. Minimum space behind shield: 25 mm (1 in.). In Canada 21 mm (7/8 in).

6. Shield extension above appliance: 500 mm (20 in.).
7. Edge clearance for ceiling shields: 75 mm (3 in.).
