WARNING: A qualified installer or service person

must install stove and burner system. Follow all lo-

cal codes.

CAUTION: This stove with burner system creates

warm air currents. These currents move heat to wall

surfaces next to stove. Installing stove next to vinyl

or cloth wall coverings or operating stove with burner

system where impurities (such as, but not limited to,

tobacco smoke, aromatic candles, cleaning fluids, oil

or kerosene lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may discolor

walls or cause odors.

LOCATION AND SPACE REQUIREMENTS

Determine the safest and most efficient location for your IHP B-vent

cast iron stove. Make sure that rafters and wall studs are not in the

way of the venting system. Choose a location where the heat output

is not affected by drafts, air conditioning ducts, windows or doors.

Figure 2 shows some common locations. Be aware of all restrictions

and precautions before deciding the exact location for your stove and

termination cap.

When deciding the location of your stove and burner system, follow

these rules:

• Do not connect this stove and burner system to a chimney flue

serving a separate solid-fuel burning stove or appliance.

• Due to high temperatures, do not locate this stove in high traffic

areas, or near furniture or draperies.

• Proper clearances must be maintained. See Figures 3 and 4.

• This stove is a freestanding unit designed to set directly on the

floor. If your stove is to be installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile,

or any combustible material other than wood, it must be installed

on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the

stove. See Figure 5.
