TION AND CLEARANCES
As long as clearance to combustibles is kept within the required distances, the most desirable and benefical location for
a Napoleon Stove is in the centre of a building, thereby allowing the most efficient use of the heat created. The location
of windows, doors and the traffic flow in the room where the stove is to be located should be considered. If possible, you
should choose a location where the vent will pass through the house without cutting a floor or roof joist.
MAINTAIN THESE MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES:
A. 2"*
B. 2"
C. 1"
D. 17-1/2"
E.
9"
F.

minimum 18" from stove top to ceiling
