NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

The hearth and/or floor protection must be a thermally rated non-com-

bustible hearth/floor protector meeting or exceeding a thermal rating of 

k=.84 or equivalent with a listed thickness of 3/8" (9.5mm) minimum in 

USA (3/4" - 19mm minimum in Canada).  The covering must extend 18” 

(450mm) in front of the heater and 8” (200mm) to either side (measured 

from door opening in the USA and measured from the side of the unit 

in Canada).

Using Alternate Material As Floor / Hearth Protection

The hearth extension or alternate material used as a floor/hearth protec-

tor must be constructed of a durable noncombustible material having 

an equal or better thermal conductivity value (lower k value) of k =.84 

BTU/IN FT2 HR °F or a thermal resistance that equals or exceeds r = 1.19 

HR °F FT2 IN/BTU with a minimum thickness of 3/8” in USA or 3/4” in 

Canada. With these values, determine the minimum thickness of the 

alternate material required using the formula(s) and shown in Table 2 

for USA and Table 3 for Canada.

NOTE:  Any noncombustible material having a minimum thickness of 

3/8”(9.5 mm) for USA or 3/4” (19mm) in Canada whose k value is less 

than .84 or whose r value is more than 1.19 is acceptable. If the alternate 

material used has a higher k value or lower r value will require a greater 

thickness of the material used. In some cases, if the k value is less or 

the r value higher, a thinner material may be used.

Methods of determining floor protection equivalents:

To determine the thickness required for the alternate material when 

either the "k" value or "r" value is known, use either the k formula or 

formula.

Example: If Micore 160 Mineral Fiber Board is to be used for the floor 

protection, how thick must this material be?

Table 2 - USA REQUIREMENTS

** If the hearth extension material(s) that is intended to be used is NOT listed 

on Table 1, the material can still be used if the material(s) is noncombustible. 

However, the manufacturer of the material must provide either the listed k-value 

per inch or r-value per inch with listed thickness so that the minimum thickness 

required for the hearth can be calculated (per instructions here or as specified 

in the NFI Certification Manuals).
