*Steel with a minimum thickness of 0.015'' (0.38 mm) or ceramic tiles sealed together with
grout. No protection is required if the unit is installed on a non-combustible floor (ex: concrete).
Note 1: The floor protection at the back of the stove is limited to the stove's required clearance
if such clearance is smaller than 8 inches (203 mm).
Note 2: Only required under the horizontal section of the connector. Must exceed each side of
the connector by at least 2 inches (51 mm).

7.4 Reducing Wall and Ceiling Clearances Safely

It is often desirable to reduce the minimum
installation clearances by placing the stove
closer to walls so the installation takes up
less floor space. You can safely reduce
the minimum clearances by permanently
installing a shield between the stove and
combustible material. The rules for safe
shields can be complicated, so read them
carefully and follow them exactly. Note that
there may be minor regional differences in
clearance reduction rules so be sure to
check with your building or fire inspector
before proceeding.
