1. The stove must be placed on solid concrete,
solid masonry, or when installed on a combus-
tible floor, on a listed floor protector, such as
Hy-C or Imperial Model UL4648BK or
equivalent with 0.08 R factor. (NOTE: to cal-
culate R-value of alternative materials see page
16). The base must extend at least 16” beyond
the front of the access door, 8” to the sides of
fuel opening, and must  extend under and 2
inches beyond either side of the stove pipe if it
is elbowed towards a wall. (See figures 1 & 3
and consult local building codes and fire pro-
tection ordinances.)
CAUTION: (FIRE HAZARD) CARPETING AND
OTHER COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL MUST NOT
COVER THE FLOOR PROTECTOR. THESE
MATERIALS MUST REMAIN OUTSIDE OF
COMBUSTIBLE CLEARANCES, SEE FIG. 1– 3.
2. The stove must have its own flue. DO NOT
CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY

3. After observing the clearances to combustible
materials (figures 1–3), locate your floor
protector accordingly (figure 1) and carefully
place the stove in your selected location.
Install connector pipe, elbows, and thimble as
required, utilizing either a recently cleaned and
inspected 6”  masonry chimney or a 6” i.d.
listed chimney.
