installing
Place the stove on a noncombustible type floor or floor protector
that extends a minimum of 6 inches (152mm) to the front of the
load door opening, 6 inches (152mm) to the sides of the door
opening, and 6 inches to the rear. Floor protection must also
extend 2 inches (51mm) beyond each side of any horizontal flue
pipe. The minimum floor protector material is 20 gauge sheet
metal. Other floor protector materials are ceramic tile, stone,
brick, etc.
nOte for canadian installation only: Per ULC-S627-00,
If installed on a combustible floor, the need to provide a
noncombustible floor protector covering the area beneath the
space heater and extending at least 17.72" (450mm) on the firing
side and at least 7.87" (200mm) on the other sides.
In Canada, you may follow smaller U.S. floor protection
requirements OnlY if the user agrees to completely shut-
down the appliance, and allow it to cool to where all fire is
extinguished and the combustion blower and its indicator
light shuts off, prior to opening the firebox door or ash door.
Place the stove away from combustible walls at least as far as
shown in Figures 3 and 4. Please note the difference in side wall
clearance with and without side shields.
Note that the clearances shown are minimum for safety but
do not leave much room for access when cleaning or servicing.
Please take this into account when placing the stove.
Connect the power cord to a 120 V.A.C. 60Hz grounded
receptacle. (A surge protector is recommended to protect the
circuit board.) Also be sure that the polarity of the outlet that the
stove is plugged into is correct.
Prior to installing the flue pipe, connect a draft meter. (The
draft meter must have a minimum range of 0 - .5") Record the
first reading. Connect flue pipe to stove and be sure all doors
and windows in the home are closed. Record the second draft
reading_______. If the second reading is more than .05" lower
than the first reading, check for possible restrictions or the need
for outside air (see page 10). For more information on the draft
test procedure, refer to Page 21.
