PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
PAGE 6
SELECTING A LOCATION
The design of your home and where you place your
stove will determine its value as a source of heat. A
woodstove depends primarily on air circulation (convec-
tion) to disperse its heat, and therefore, a central loca-
tion is often best. There are other practical considera-
tions, which must be considered before a final selection
of locations is made.
♦ Existing Chimneys
♦ Wood Storage
♦ Aesthetic Considerations
♦ Roof Design (Rafter Locations & Roof Pitch)
♦ Room Traffic
♦Proximity to Combustibles
♦ Electrical Wiring
The installation of this stove will require some research.
Once your options are determined, consult with your
local building department who will be able to give you
the necessary installation requirements for your area (is
a building permit required, rooms where installation may
not be allowed, etc.).
WARNING: CHECK ALL LOCAL BUILDING AND
SAFETY CODES BEFORE INSTALLATION. THE IN-
STALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND APPROPRIATE
CODE REQUIREMENTS MUST BE FOLLOWED EX-
ACTLY AND WITHOUT COMPROMISE. ALTERA-
TIONS TO THE STOVE ARE NOT ALLOWED. DO
NOT CONNECT THE STOVE TO A CHIMNEY SYS-
TEM SERVING ANOTHER STOVE, APPLIANCE, OR
ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT. FAILURE TO FOL-
LOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL VOID THE
MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY.
If you plan to vent your stove into an existing masonry
chimney, have it inspected by a local fire marshal or
qualified installer. Remember that a stove's perform-
ance is heavily influenced by the chimney and its loca-
tion on the roof. An oversized flue may not provide ef-
fective draw, and a flue liner may be required (see Draft
Requirements, page 9). Consult your dealer or qualified
installer before final selection is made.
This stove requires pre-installation work to be com-
pleted before installation can take place. This may in-
clude modification for flue and chimney.

WARNING! IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU OB-
SERVE THE MINIMUM CLEARANCES.
These are the listed clearances for this appliance which

established for the stove itself and increased or de-
creased based on how much heat is transferred by the
pipe.
