Floor protection
Floor protection must be non-combustible material extending beneath the stove,
and to the front and sides from door opening and to rear as indicated.
The size of the floor protection is dependent, of installation with or without pedestal.
and is different in US compared to Canada.
Thermal Floor Protection
Stove without pedestal placed on combustible material must have thermal protec-
tion with an R = 3.19 or greater under the appliance and extending 24" in front of
unit.
Note:
In Canada, to comply with CSA B365, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Ap-
pliances and Equipment, any combustible covering beneath the appliance and/or
within the area extending horizontally at least 450 mm (18 in) beyond the appliance
on any side equipped with a door, and at least 200 mm (8 in) beyond the appliance
on other sides, shall be protected by a continuous, durable, non-combustible pad
that will provide ember protection. The 450 mm (18 in) ember protection required on
any side with a door shall extend for the full width of the appliance plus the 200 mm
(8 in) required on each side of the appliance without a door. Where an appliance is
installed less than 200 mm (8 in) from a wall, the ember pad need only extend to the
base of the wall. An ember pad shall not be placed on top of a carpet unless the pad
is structurally supported to prevent displacement and distortion.
