Madison 1655 Series Clearance Chart
Use the chart below together with the diagrams on the next page to determine the minimum clearance required for
your particular installation. In any case, it is always advisable to locate the stove as far away from walls as possible
in order to take full advantage of the radiant properties of cast iron.
Stove clearances are measured between the cast iron Top Plate of the stove and the combustible surface. Note
that the cast iron back on the Madison protrudes 5” (127mm) out from the stovetop, and will therefore be closer to
the wall than the top of the stove.
Chimney Connector clearances are measured between the connector surface and the combustible surface. For
Douible-wall Chimney Connector, use the manufacturer’s listed clearance specification.
Use NFPA 211 default clearance or manufacturer’s installation specifications for those configurations not tested.
