FLOOR PROTECTOR (Hearth) REQUIREMENTS — Free - standing models
Unless your woodfire will be standing on an un-covered fireproof floor (containing no combustible
material) extending at least 500mm from the appliance, it will be necessary to provide a floor pro-
tector (hearth). See page 7 for construction details. Where the minimum size requirements bring the
side of the floor protector nearly to a wall, it is advisable to extend the protector to meet the wall.

NOTE: Where a fan is being fitted, you may prefer to increase the 'A' dimension to 100 mm to
provide easier access for servicing. If so, the amount you add to 'A' to bring it to 100 mm must also be
added to the 'C' and 'S' dimensions.
