in the same room when the heater is in use, and they
should be taught to avoid the hot surface. Keep any
objects that can burn well away from the heater, and
observe the recommended clearances that follow.

CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS

Minimum Clearances to Combustible Materials
Measure side clearances as shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5
from the outer edge of the cast iron stove top. Measure
rear clearances from the outermost surface of the steel
rear skirt.
The Stardance heater is approved for installation into an
alcove constructed of combustible materials to the dimen-
sions and clearances shown on the next page.
The same clearances apply in a standard parallel instal-
lation.
WARNING
• Always maintain required clearances (air spaces) to
nearby combustibles to prevent fire hazard. Do not
fill air spaces with insulation. All venting components
must maintain a 1" (25 mm) clearance to combusti-
ble materials.
• The gas appliance and vent system must be vented
directly to the outside of the building and never be
attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel
or gas-burning appliance.
• Refer to the manufacturer's instructions included
with the venting system for complete installation pro-
cedures.
