CAUTION
Hearth and Home Technologies does not recommend adhesive
based vinyl flooring due to thermal expansion. Floating-style
flooring (LVP - luxury vinyl plank or LVT – luxury vinyl tile) can be
used, but it will reach temperatures up to 110 °F in a room with
ambient temperature of 70 °F. Consult flooring specifications to
ensure compatibility.
When using LVP/LVT flooring, pellet stove and inserts require
29 inches of alternative flooring in front of the stove or insert
before using LVP/LVT (luxury vinyl plank/tile flooring). Whether
the stove or insert sits flush on the floor or is elevated on a
raised hearth, 29 inches of alternative flooring is required in
front of the stove or insert.
For all other flooring, continue to follow clearance to combustible
requirements in the installation manual.
