Floor Protection

USA - The floor in front and under the heater must be protected
with a minimum of 3/8" thick noncombustible material. The cover-
ing must extend 16" in front of the door opening of the heater and
8" to either side of the door opening and 5-1/2" to the rear or to
the wall, whichever is smaller. In all installations a 16" minimum
hearth extension (in front of the stove) is required as measured
from the door opening of the unit.
Canada - The floor in front and under the heater must be protected
with a minimum of 3/8" thick noncombustible material. The covering
must extend 457 mm in front of the door opening of the heater and
200 mm to either side of the stove body and 200 mm to the rear
or to the wall, whichever is smaller. In all installations a 457mm
minimum hearth extension (in front of the stove) is required as
measured from the door opening of the unit.

Reduced Clearances

Clearances to combustible surfaces can be reduced with the use of
listed double wall connector pipe. See the clearances with double
wall pipe on the following page.

Alcove Clearances:

In alcove installations, only 6" double wall connector pipe can be
used (single wall or single wall pipe with shield is not allowed).
Minimum alcove width between combustible materials is 48"
(1219 mm). Maximum alcove depth is 48" (1219 mm). Minimum
alcove height is 72" (1829 mm).

Mobile Home Installations

This appliance is approved for installation into a mobile home

Construction and Safety Standard, Title 4 CFR, Part 80 (in
Canada CAN/CSA Z40 MH), or, when such a standard is not
applicable, the Standard for Mobile Home Installations, ANSI
A5.1.
All mobile home installations require an outside air kit (cat. no.
71111). The stove must be bolted to the floor and grounded to

Approved Chimney* - Your stove is approved for use with Class
A, UL 103 HT (U.S.) / ULC-S629 (Canada) Listed Residential Type
and Building Heating Appliance Chimney (HT chimney - 2100°
Fahrenheit) and double wall connector pipe from Security™
Chimneys.
Clearances to connector shall be measured from 6" flue collar.
Restrictions apply! Read instructions before installing.

Chimney and Connector

Minimum 6" diameter, minimum 24 MSG black steel connector
pipe with UL103HT listed factory-built chimney suitable for use
with solid fuels or masonry chimney. Horizontal connection not
tested, refer to local building codes for installation. See installa-
tion instructions for details. Restrictions apply! Read instructions
before installing.
Residential chimney systems must be from the same brands as
listed for mobile homes but connector pipe may be double wall,
single wall, or single wall with shield as listed.
Connector pipe and chimney must be of the same brand.
The chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space,
closet or similar concealed space, or a floor, or ceiling. Where
passage through a wall, or partition of combustible construction
is desired, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365.
There must be an effective vapor barrier at the location where
the chimney or other component penetrates to the exterior of the
structure. Follow the vent manufacturer's detailed instructions.
IMPORTANT NOTE: See Draft Requirements and Selecting a
Proper Venting System on Page 4 to assist you in choosing the
proper venting system for your installation.
Clearance dimensions are to flue collar. If a single wall connector
pipe with shield is used, a 1 inch air space is needed between pipe
and shield. Shield attaches to rear of stove pipe and must run from
stove top to ceiling. Pipe shield shall be UL listed.
Components Required For Installations
Legs AND Bottom Heat Shield or Pedestal Base. If optional blower
is NOT used, Rear Heat Shield Block Off Plate shall be installed.
WARNING: In the event that you remove the blower for any
reason, make sure a cover plate (available from Lennox Hearth
Products) is installed before using the heater. Excessive rear
wall temperatures will result if the stove is burned without the
cover plate. Note: The cover plate is not necessary if a blower
has never been installed because a knock-out will be in place
to act as the cover.
* Other approved chimney brands are Projet, Jakes Evans/GSW, Dura-vent,
Metal Fab, Ameri-Tec, Metalbestos and Industrial Chimney (ICC).
