1.4 Clearance from Combustible Walls
There are listed clearances for your stove which were determined in a laboratory test, using various “classes” of stove pipe
or chimney. Minimums are first established for the stove itself and then increased, based on how much heat is transferred
by each class of pipe.
Residential Standard (not approved for manufactured [mobile] homes)
Using single wall pipe connector to the top of the woodstove.
Clearances USA & Canada (inches / millimeters)
A: 18 / 460 C: 18 / 460 E: 18 / 460

PROTECTED WALL CLEARANCE
If the woodstove is installed adjacent to a protected wall system, the variance must be approved by your local building
official. Normally, the protected wall system is defined as a non-combustible material, with a minimum of 1” air space
behind it. Check your local building codes or consult a qualified installer (Ref. NFPA 211).

OBSERVE THE MINIMUM CLEARANCES.
