Installation

Heater Placement Requirements

•
Heater must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the heater and vent
•
Due to the high temperature, the heater should be located out of traffic and away from furniture
and draperies.
•
When placed in a location where the floor to ceiling height is under 7 feet, the installation is
considered an alcove and must meet the following requirements:
The alcove floor to ceiling height must be at least 58" tall
-
The alcove must not be more than 45" deep before the ceiling returns to 7'
-
The alcove must be at least 46-3/4" wide
-
•
The heater must not be placed so the vents below or above the door, along the sides of heater, or
along the back of the heater can become blocked.
•
This heater may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this
appliance produces when determining a location.

Floor Protection Requirements

•
When the stove is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl or other combustible material other than
wood flooring or a high pressure laminate wood floor, the stove must be installed on a metal or
wood protection panel extending the full width and depth of the heater (Minimum 26-3/4" wide by
19" deep).

Electrical Requirements


Plug the stove into a grounded receptacle supplying a minimum 1.5 amps (115 Volts, 60 Hz, 180
watts).

The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in
the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian
