Location and Space Requirements
LOCATION AND SPACE REQUIREMENTS
Determine the safest and most efficient location for your Comfort
Glow cast iron stove. Make sure that rafters and wall studs are not
in the way of the venting system. Choose a location where the heat
output is not affected by drafts, air conditioning ducts, windows, or
doors. Figure 2 shows some common locations. Read all venting
information in this manual. Be aware of all restrictions and precau-
tions before deciding the exact location for your stove.
When deciding the location of your stove, follow these rules:
1. Do not connect this stove and burner system to a chimney flue
serving a separate solid-fuel burning fireplace or appliance.
2. Due to high temperatures, do not locate this stove in high traf-
fic areas or near furniture or draperies.
3. Proper clearances must be maintained, see Figures 3 and 4 on
page 5.
4. This stove is a freestanding unit designed to set directly on the
floor. If your stove is to be installed directly on carpeting, vi-
nyl tile, or any combustible material other than wood, it must
be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width
and depth of the stove. See Figure 5, page 5.
