Clearances To Combustible Material - Drolet DB04815 Installation And Operation Manual

8. Clearances to Combustible Material

The clearances given in this section have been established following test results in accordance
with the procedures described in the standards ULC S627 (Canada) and UL 1482 (USA). When
this cookstove is installed respecting the indicated minimum clearances or more, the flammable
surfaces won't overheat during normal or even abnormal usage.
None of the cookstove parts or smoke pipe can be installed closer to the combustible
materials than the minimum clearances indicated.
Fuel, solid or liquid, should not be located closer to combustibles than the minimum
clearances given.
The clearances to the combustible walls can differ slightly between Canada and the United
States and can also vary depending on the use of a single wall or double connector. Make sure
to use the proper clearances for the location and the type of pipe.
The clearances of the appliance and the flue pipes must be met individually, meaning the
appliance can not be installed closer to the combustible materials than the single or double wall
pipe allows. To know the safe way to reduce clearances,see section 8.2 Clearances Reduction
to the Walls and the Ceiling.
Refer to the following images and tables for minimum required clearances.
