Passage frequency;
Convenience;

General installation steps
1) Read the entire installation manual before installing and
using your stove.

section about the dimensions of the floor protection plate,
the localisation of the stove over the floor protection plate
and the combustible material clearances (page 5). Once
you have decided where to install the stove, mark the
floor at the center of the chimney.
To make sure that the vertical center of the
chimney, use a plumb line and mark the center on
the floor.
3) Check if it is possible to pass the chimney without
damaging the structure of your house. You might have to
move the location of the stove while keeping the
minimum clearances. If you have to cut a joist, be sure to
respect the building code in effect to keep the structural
integrity of your house.
