Heater Placement Requirements
• Heater must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the heater and vent
• Due to the high temperature, the heater should be located out of traffic and away from
furniture and draperies.
? When placed in a location where the floor to ceiling height is under 7 feet, the installation
is considered an alcove and must meet the following requirements:
•
The alcove floor to ceiling height must be at least 58” tall
• The alcove must not be more than 45” deep before the ceiling returns to 7’
• The alcove must be at least 47” wide
• The heater must not be placed so the vents below or above the door, along the sides of
heater, or along the back of the heater can become blocked.
• This heater may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this
appliance produces when determining a location.
Floor Protection Requirements
• When the stove is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl or other combustible material other
than wood flooring or a high pressure laminate wood floor, the stove must be installed on
a metal or wood protection panel extending the full width and depth of the heater
(Minimum 28” wide by 18” deep).
Make sure these rubber tipped
bolts on each leg contact the floor
(they dampen any noise that may
transmit through the hearth). Do
not adjust with weight on the legs,
the rubber tips may tear.
