SECTION 1.0 - INSTALLATION
When installed and operated as described in these instructions, the Classic EPA wood stove is suitable for
use as a freestanding wood stove in residential installations. The Classic EPA wood stove is not intended for
installation in a bedroom or a mobile home.
In Canada, the CSA B365 Installation Code for Solid Fuel Burning Appliances and Equipment and the CSA
C22.1 Canadian National Electrical Code are to be followed in the absence of local code requirements. In the
USA, the ANSI NFPA 70 National Electrical Code and NFPA 211 Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents
and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances are to be followed in the absence of local code requirements.
In addition to the national installation and/or local building codes, fire officials (or other authorities having
jurisdiction) should be contacted to determine what restrictions and installation requirements might apply
locally.

1.2 POSITIONING THE STOVE
It is very important to position the wood stove in an area that will favour the most efficient heat distribution
throughout the house. The stove should therefore be installed in the room where the most time is spent, and
in the most spacious room possible. Recall that wood stoves produce radiating heat, the heat we feel when we
are close to a wood stove. A wood stove also functions by convection, that is through the displacement of hot
air accelerated upwards and its replacement with cooler air at the floor level. The stove’s convection effect is
facilitated by the installation of a blower.
