Canada Only
Floor Protector
The stove may be installed on a combustible floor provided
noncombustible ember protection is used.
This protection must extend as follows:
In Canada: 18" (457 mm) on the firing side and 8" (203 mm) to the
other sides. See Figure #4, below.
Combustion Air
Intake or combustion air can be supplied to the stove in one of
two ways. Consult your local building code or CAN/CSA-B365,
Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment
before proceeding.
1.
Outside air supply - (Necessary for mobile home installation,
optional for residential installation.) Outside air may be drawn
from either underneath the stove or from behind.
To draw outside air through the floor, leave the 4"(102mm)
knockout or cover plate in place in the rear of the pedestal or
leg kit ash box enclosure.
Pedestal Model: Cut or drill a 4"(102mm) diameter hole in
the floor anywhere inside the perimeter of the pedestal. Cover
the hole with a 4" x 4" (102 mm x 102 mm) rodent screen and
staple/nail in place.
Leg Model: Cut or drill a 4"(102mm) diameter hole directly below
the bottom hole of the ash box enclosure. Connect enclosure
to the floor with a short 4"(102mm) diameter pipe. If you wish
to connect the outside air to the rear hole on the ash box, then
remove the 4" knockout or cover plate at the rear of the ash box.
This hole must get its air from a
ventilated crawl space or be
extended with duct to the outdoors (see Figure #3, Page 7). The
use of outside combustion air for residential installation requires
the unit to be secured to the structure to prevent dislodging of
the air duct.
To draw outside air from behind the stove, an outside air
adaptor may be required (see Optional Blower section). Cut or
drill a 4"(102mm) hole through a wall behind the unit. Use an
appropriate household 4"(102mm) inlet. You must remove the
rear cover plate from the pedestal or move the cover plate at the
rear of the leg kit ash box enclosure to cover the bottom hole.
Note:
This unit is not designed to be operated with the firing door
open. In addition to the obvious hazard of sparks landing on
combustibles, an open fire door will cause the heater to draw
air from the living space and possibly cause suffocation.
2.
Room air supply - Remove the cover plate from the rear of the
pedestal or leg kit ash box enclosure. The stove will now draw
its air from the room through this opening and into the firebox
intake.
Note:
The living space around the heater must be well ventilated
with good air circulation. Anything that may cause a negative
pressure can cause gases or fumes to be pulled into the living
area. During extremely cold weather, and especially when burning
at very slow rates, the upper parts of the exposed chimney may
ice up, partially blocking the flue gases. If blockage occurs, flue
gases may enter living space.
