HEATER/FLOOR PROTECTOR LOCATION
FIG. 4
Place the heater on solid masonry or solid concrete. When
the heater is used on a combustible floor, use an Underwrit-
ers Listed floor protector. The floor protector must comply
with UL Standards. The base should extend at least 18"
beyond the door side of the heater and should extend under
the flue pipe if it is elbowed towards a wall. (Fig. 4).
1. The stove must have its own flue. Do not connect this
unit to a chimney flue serving other appliances.
2. After observing the clearances to combustibles, locate
your floor protector accordingly and carefully place the
stove in your selected location. Install stove pipe ,
elbows and thimble as necessary, utilizing either a
recently cleaned and inspected masonry chimney or a
UL 103 HT Listed Residential Type and Building Heat
ing Appliance Chimney.
3. If your chimney continues to draft excessively, then use
a Barometric Draft Regulator.
4. Use three (3) sheet metal screws in each stove pipe and
/or elbow joint to firmly hold the stove pipe together. Use
6" round black/blue stove pipe, not galvanized stove
pipe .
5. Recheck illustrations Fig. 2 through 7 to be sure you
have the proper clearances shown from the stove and
the connector pipe to combustible surfaces. NOTE: If
a wall is only faced with brick or stone, consider it as a
combustible wall.
6. DO NOT install this stove in a mobile home or trailer.
7. If you have too much draft, then install a 6" cast iron
stove pipe damper in the first joint of the stove pipe.
CAUTION!
KEEP FURNISHINGS AND OTHER
