Designing a Safe Installation
The section that follows contains charts with the infor-
mation that you’ll need to make your installation safe.
Included are a chart to tell you exactly where to cut the
hole in the ceiling so that the stove will meet clearance
requirements, a chart that gives stove clearances for
all installations, and a chart to illustrate the required
sizes of wall shields for various installations.
Refer to these charts as you plan the installation and do
not compromise on any of the dimensions listed.
Clearance Chart Reference Diagrams
Refer to the diagrams below when using the Stove and
Chimney Connector Clearance Chart that follows. For
example, the letter “A” gives the minimum side clear-
ance for installations in which the stove is not equipped
with any heat shield and the wall beside the stove is not
protected. “D” gives the minimum side clearance when
the stove does not have any heat shield, but the wall is
protected.
Measure clearance distances from the top plate of the
stove or chimney connector to the wall, not the wall
protector.
