8.2 Floor
Protection
This stove is designed to prevent the floor from overheating. However, it must be placed on a
nonflammable surface to protect the floor from hot embers that may fall during loading.
The floor protection must be a continuous, non combustible material, such as steel with a
minimum thickness of 0.015" (0.38 mm) or ceramic tiles sealed together with grout. Cement
board, brick, or any other approved or listed material suited for floor protection. The floor
protection must have a
R factor of at least 1.00
if the stove is installed at the floor level or it
is raised less than 6" from the floor. The floor protection can have a R factor of 0 if the stove is
raised of at least 6" from the floor.
Any type of tile will require a continuous non combustible sheet beneath to prevent the possibility
of embers falling through to the combustible floor if cracks or separation should occur in the
finished surface. Check local codes for approved alternatives.
No protection is required if the unit is installed on a non-combustible floor (ex: concrete).
