Anleitung Zusammenfassung
A wood stove must never be installed in a hallway or near a staircase, since it may block the way in case of fire or fall to respect required clearances. FLOOR PROTECTOR Your wood stove should be placed on a non-combustible surface. The floor protector should be under the stove, eighteen inches beyond the front and eight inches beyond each side of the fuel loading and ash removal opening. If there is a horizontal section of chimney connector, the floor protector should go under it and two inches beyond each side. The floor protector should exceed the stove as follows: FRONT 18’’ SIDES 8’’ BACK 8’’ (460 mm) (200 mm) (200 mm) 13 CLEARANCES It is of utmost importance that the clearances to combustible material be scrupulously respected upon installation of the stove you have selected. Refer to the tables below : Figure 6: Clearances to combustibles CANADA Single pipe / Double pipe Model A B C D E F HT-1600 15/12 16/16 12/10 20.8/17.8 28.7/28.7 25.2/23.2 HT-2000 19/10 19/14 11/8 25.4/16.4 33.1/28.1 25.5/22.5 USA Single pipe / Double pipe Model A B C D E F HT-1600 15/12 16/16 12/10 20.8/17.8 28.7/28.7 25.2/23.2 HT-2000 19/10 19/14 11/8 25.4/16.4 33.1/28.1 25.5/22.5 • Floor to ceiling height must be at least 7' (84") in all cases. • The clearance between the flue pipe and a wall are valid only for vertical walls and for vertical flue pipe. • The flue pipe must not go through roof trussing, an attic, a wardrobe or similar spaces; neither a floor or combustible partition. • A flue pipe crossing a combustible wall must have a clearance of 18" minimum. • To reduce flue pipe clearances from combustible materials, contact your local safety department. REDUCED CLEARANCES You may decrease the clearances by installing heat radiation shields between the walls or the ceiling and the stove. These heat radiation shields must be installed permanently, and can include sheet metal, a rigid non-combustible sheet or a masonry wall. Clearances of not less than 1" (25 mm) and not more than 3" (76 mm) between the bottom of the shield and the floor and not less than 3" (76 mm) between the top of the shield and the ceiling must be respected to allow vertical air circulation behind the shield. The shield must extend 20" (500 mm) above the stove top and 18" (450mm) to each side of the stove. Following the installation of such a heat radiation shield, the clearances mentioned on the stove certification plate may be reduced as stated in the following table. Reducing Clearances With Shielding TYPE OF PROTECTION Top Sheet metal, a minimum of 0,013" (0,33 mm) spaced 50% out at least 7/8" (21 mm) by non-combustible spacers.

Brick spaced out at least 7/8" (21 mm) by non- N/A combustible spacers. Brick with a minimum of 0,013" (0,33 mm) sheet metal backing spaced out at least 7/8" (21 mm) by non 67% N/A combustible spacers.

If you are using a factory built chimney, it must comply with UL 103 or ULC S629 standards; therefore it must be a Type HT (2100°F). It is extremely important that it be installed according to the manufacturer's specifications. If you are using a masonry chimney, it is important that it be built in compliance with the specifications of the National Building Code. It must be lined with fire clay bricks, metal or clay tiles sealed together with fire cement. (Round flues are the most efficient). The interior diameter of the chimney flues must be identical to the stove's smoke exhaust. A flue which is too small may cause draught problems, while a large flue favours rapid cooling of the gas, and hence the build-up of creosote and the risk of chimney fires. Note that it is the chimney and not the stove which creates the draught effect; your stove's performance is directly dependent on an adequate draught from your chimney. The following recommendations may be useful for the installation of your chimney: 1. Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another appliance. 2. It must rise above the roof at least 3' (0.9 mm) from the uppermost point of contact. 3. The chimney must exceed any part of the building or other obstruction within a 10' (3.04 m) distance by a height of 2' (0.6 m). 4. Installation of an interior chimney is always preferable to an exterior chimney. Indeed, the interior chimney will, by definition, be hotter than an exterior chimney, being heated up by the ambient air in the house. Therefore the gas which circulates will cool more slowly, thus reducing the build-up of creosote and the risk of chimney fires...
