INSTALLATION
CLEARANCES TO
COMBUSTIBLES
The clearances listed below are MINIMUM
distances. Measure the clearance to both the
appliance and the chimney connector.
(The far-
thest distance is correct if the two clearances
do not coincide.)
For example, if the appliance
is set as indicated in one of the fi gures but the
connector is too close, move the stove until the
correct clearance to the connector is obtained.
This unit can be installed on a solid combustible
surface like a wood fl oor. This unit can also be
installed directly on carpeting or vinyl when
the bottom pedestal cover plate (provided with
unit) is installed.
This appliance may be installed only with the
clearances as shown in the situations pictured.
Do not combine clearances from one type of
installation with another in order to achieve
closer clearances.
Use the minimum clearances shown in the
diagrams below for all installations.
