Getting Started
A. Design, Installation & Location
Considerations
1. Appliance Location
Consideration must be given to safety, convenience,
traffic flow, and the fact that the appliance will need a
chimney and chimney connector. It is a good idea to
plan your installation on paper, using exact measure-
ments for clearances and floor protection, before actu-
ally beginning the installation.
Maintain specified vent clearance to combustible re-
quirements listed by the vent manufacturers instruc-
tions and all clearance to combustibles listed in this
manual.
Check with your local building code agency before
you begin your installation. Be sure local codes do not
supersede UL specifications and always obtain the
required permit so that insurance protection benefits
cannot be unexpectedly cancelled. If any assistance is
required during installation, please contact your dealer.
We recommend that a qualified building inspector and
your insurance company representative review your
plans before and after the installation.
2. Room Sensor Location
The room sensor's location will have some effect on
the appliance's operation. When the sensor is located
close to the appliance, it may require a higher setting
to keep the rest of the house comfortable. If the sensor
is located in an adjacent room, or farther away from
the stove, you will notice higher temperatures near the
appliance.

B. Fire Safety
Maintain the designated clearances to combustibles.
Insulation must not touch the chimney. You must
maintain the designated air space around the chimney.
This space around a chimney is necessary to allow
natural heat removal from the area. Insulation in this
space will cause a heat buildup, which may ignite wood
framing. NOTE: Clearances may only be reduced
by means approved by the regulatory authority
having jurisdiction.
To provide reasonable fire safety, the following should
be given serious consideration:
1. Install at least one smoke detector on each floor
of your home. Detectors should be located away
from the heating appliance and close to sleeping
areas. Follow the smoke detector manufacturer's
placement and installation instructions, and be
sure to maintain regularly.
2. A conveniently located Class A fire extinguisher
to contend with small fires resulting from burning
embers.
3. A practiced evacuation plan, consisting of at least
two escape routes.
4. A plan to deal with a hopper fire as follows:
In the event of a hopper fire:
a. Evacuate the house immediately.
b. Notify Fire Department.
Fire Hazard
•
Do not operate appliance before
