8.3 Floor protector
If the stove is to be installed on top of a combustible floor, it must be guarded by a non
combustible material as shown on figure 1.3 (see the dotted line area).

*Steel with a minimum thickness of 0.015" (0.38 mm) or ceramic tiles sealed together
with grout. No protection is required if the unit is installed on a non-combustible floor
(ex: concrete).
Note 1: The floor protection at the back of the stove is limited to the stove’s required
clearance if such clearance is smaller than 8 inches (203 mm).
Note 2: Only required under the horizontal section of the connector. Must exceed each
side of the connector by at least 2 inches (51 mm).
8.4 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.
