INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Note:
Authority having jurisdiction (such as the municipal building department, the fire
department, the fire prevention bureau, etc.) must be consulted before installation to
determine if a building permit is required.
CAUTION:
Read these instructions carefully before starting the installation. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in property damage, bodily harm and even death.
4.1
Location of the Woodstove
Select the appropriate location for the woodstove. The position
of the woodstove should be selected on the basis of heat output,
safety and aesthetics.
Position the woodstove at the selected location, taking care
of respecting the minimum clearances to combustible
materials shown in Figure 11 on page 12.
The cutting of joists and rafters for floor, ceiling and roof
chimney penetrations will affect the load bearing capacities of
the dwelling structure. To determine whether additional support
is required, consult a professional engineer. Improper cutting of
chimney openings in the attic and roof will affect the bearing
and thermal insulating capacity as well as the weather tightness
of the dwelling. Incorrect workmanship must be avoided.
Consult a professional engineer or a certified installer if needed.
If possible, select a location for the woodstove that will
minimize the number of offsets in the chimney course. Offsets
will reduce the draft, complicate the chimney sweeper’s work
and increase installation costs. An installation drawing should
be prepared prior to the installation work.
