Floor protector’s come with various types of 
specifications. To convert a floor protector’s specification 
to an R-value, do one of the following: 
• 
If the R-value is given, use that value—no 
conversion is needed. 
• 
If a k-factor is given with a required thickness 
(T) in inches, use this formula: R-value = 1/k x T 
• 
If a C-factor is given, use the formula: R-value = 
1/C 
To determine the R-value of the proposed alternate floor 
protector: 
• 
Use either the k-factor or the C-factor formula 
explained above to convert specifications not 
expressed as R-values. 
• 
For multiple layers of floor protectors, simply 
add the R-values of each layer to determine the 
overall R-value of the layers. 
If the overall R-value of your setup is greater than the 
R-value of the specified floor protector, then your setup is 
acceptable.

Handle Assembly 
Locate the handle, bolt, and washers enclosed in the 
envelope with the owner’s manual. Place the washers on 
the bolt and then push it through the handle so that the 
bolt threads extend through the bottom of the handle. 
Using a slotted screwdriver, turn the bolt 
into the chrome latch on the door, until snug. 
 
Handle Operation 
Front Door – when closed, the handle will 
be in the 7 o’clock position. To open the 
front door, rotate the latch clockwise to 
approximately the 10 o’clock position.

  According to ASHRAE Handbook of 
Fundamentals 1977 
An outside air source may 
be connected directly to this 
stove using an optional 
outside air kit. The 
advantage of providing 
outside air directly to the 
stove is that the air used by 
the stove for combustion is 
taken from outside of the 
residence rather than from 
within the room where the 
stove is located.  With 
outside air supplied directly 
to the stove, drafts within 
the room and air infiltration 
within the building are 
reduced.  Use of the outside 
air kit may also improve 
stove performance in a particularly airtight house. 
 
The outside air kit for this stove allows for the direct 
connection of the stove's air intake to a minimum 3" (76 
mm) diameter duct (supplied by others) which leads to the 
outside of the house.  When considering placement of the 
duct from the outside of the house to the hearth, keep in 
mind the need to avoid structural members of the house.   
The outside air kit will attach to the back of the stove.  
 
The termination of the duct on the outside wall of the 
stove should be located in such a manner so as to preclude 
the possibility of obstruction by snow, leaves or other 
material and should be screened against animals and 
insects. The termination should be screened using  
¼” x ¼” mesh rodent screen and be covered with a 
rain/wind proof hood (flex pipe, outside termination, 
mesh, and hood supplied by others)  Contact your dealer 
for availability).
