Location
In selecting a location for the stove, consider the
following points:
1) Heat distribution
2) Vent termination requirements
3) Gas supply line routing
4) Traffic areas, furniture, draperies, etc.
The GF 400 DV Sebago may be located on or near
conventional construction materials, however, proper
clearance to combustibles must be maintained in order
to provide adequate air circulation around the appliance.
Also, it is important to provide adequate access around
the stove for servicing and proper operation.
The clearance and hearth specifications listed in this
manual are the minimum requirements for combustible
material. A combustible material is anything that can
burn (i.e. sheet rock, wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.). These
surfaces are not limited to those that are visible and also
include materials that may be located behind non-
combustibles.
If you are not sure of the combustible nature of a
material, consult your local fire officials. Remember, “Fire
Resistant” materials are considered combustible: they
are difficult to ignite, but will burn. Also, “fire-rated”
sheet rock is considered combustible.
Hearth Requirements
The GF 400 DV Sebago gas stove CANNOT be installed
directly on carpeting, vinyl, linoleum or Pergo
®
.
If this appliance will be installed on any combustible
material OTHER THAN WOOD, a floor pad must be
installed that is either metal or wood, or a listed hearth
pad. This floor protection must extend the full width
and depth of the appliance. It is not necessary to remove
carpeting, vinyl or linoleum from underneath the floor
protection. See fig. 1.
