4.0 mINImum CLEArANCE TO COmBuSTIBLES

Minimum clearance to combustibles must be maintained or a serious fire hazard could result.
Framing or finishing material closer than the minimums listed must be constructed entirely of
As long as clearance to combustibles is kept within the required distances, the most desirable and beneficial
location for a Napoleon® stove is in the centre of a building, thereby allowing the most efficient use of the heat
created. The location of windows, doors and the traffic flow in the room where the stove is to be located should
be considered. If possible, you should choose a location where the vent will pass through the house without
cutting a floor or roof joist.

tion or service of the blower.
