INSTALLATION
Fire Prevention
To prevent risk of fire, serious consideration should be given to
the following:
1. Install at least one smoke detector on each floor in your
home. They should be located within a reasonable
distance from the heating appliance and close to
bedrooms. Follow the smoke detector manufacturer
instructions regarding placement and installation and
check regularly if they work properly.
2. Keep a Class-A fire extinguisher within reach in case of
small fires on the floor resulting from burning embers.
3. Install a CO detector in the room with the appliance.
4. Make an evacuation plan with at least two exits. All the
occupants must know this plan.
5. A procedure in case of chimney fire:
a. Close all the air intakes of the appliance if possible.
b. Evacuate the house immediately
c. Notify local fire department.
Floor protection
Your stove must be installed on a non-combustible material
plate to protect the floor and avoid fire that might be caused by:
•
Projections of sparks when opening door or loading logs;
•
The heat radiation from the stove which might cause an
auto-ignition to the floor or to the floor covering;
•
Possible flow of creosote when there is a fire chimney.
The coating used for the protection must be non-combustible
and approved according to UL1618 standard for the USA or to
the local codes (Example: cement, brick, ceramic tiles, etc.)
HORIZONTAL VENTING MANDATORY PROTECTION:
Non-
combustible floor protections must extend beneath the flue
pipe when installed with horizontal venting and it should extend
2 inches (51 mm) beyond each side of the pipe projection on
the floor.
You can extend the protection plate while respecting the
clearances of each side of the stove.
