Installation and Operation Manual - Gateway 2300
ENGLISH
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).

8.3 Reducing Clearances Safely
It is often desired to use as little space as possible when
installing a wood stove. To do this, it is possible to reduce the
clearances safely and install the stove closer to the walls by
permanently installing a heat shield between the stove and the
flammable material. The rules for heat shields are sometimes
complicated. Read and apply the instructions carefully. Some
regions may have different regulations. Consult the local
building code or contact the fire department for restrictions,
inspection and installation requirements in the area.
8.3.1 Shield Construction Rules
− Adhesives used in shield construction must not ignite or lose adhesive qualities at temperatures
likely to be encountered.
− Mounting hardware which extends from the shield surface into combustibles may be used only at
the edges of the shield.
− Mounting hardware must a llow full vertical ventilation.
See figures for shield construction to match each letter to a clearance.
A) Minimum clearance between the appliance top and an unshielded combustible ceiling: (46 ¾")
(1187 mm)
.
B) Shield extension above the appliance: 20" (500 mm).
C) Minimum space behind the shield: 1" (25 mm). In Canada
⅞
" (21 mm).
20
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).
21
Only required under the horizontal section (Ho) of the connector. Must exceed each side of the connector by at least 2 inches (51 mm).
