INSTALLATION

It is recommended that the stove be installed and serviced
by authorized professionals who are certified by the National
Fireplace Institute (NFI) as NFI Pellet Specialists.
Proper installation of this stove is necessary for safe and
efficient operation. Installing this product improperly may
result in a house fire and personal injury. All applicable
building codes for your location must be followed. In areas
where building codes require additional steps to the
installation of this product not included in this manual, the
building codes have precedence and must be followed.
Contact your local building inspector to obtain any
necessary permits or inspection guidelines before installing
the product.

STOVE PLACEMENT

Sketch out a plan for installing the stove including dimensions
before permanent placement. When determining the
location for the stove, wall stud location is critical. You may
need to adjust the location of the stove to avoid trying to
vent through a wall stud. Before placing the parlor stove,
connect the vent and allow for minimum clearance to
combustible walls.

FLOOR PROTECTION REqUIREMENTS

The stove must be installed on a noncombustible floor, with
proper floor protection, or on a masonry hearth. The hearth
or noncombustible floor protector must extend a minimum
of six inches (6”) in front, and four inches (4”) from each
side. When a cleanout t-vent is installed in the inside of
a home, the floor protector must extend 2” beyond rear of
t-vent.

SEE FIGURE 13. When stove is vented straight

through the wall and the cleanout t-vent is on the exterior
of the home, the minimum clearance is 3” from the back
of the stove to the edge of floor protector.

SEE FIGURE

14. The minimum floor protector material is 24 gA. sheet
metal.
