3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
POSITIONING WITHIN A MASONRY FIREPLACE
The cook stove can be positioned within a masonry fireplace, but care must be
given where a combustible mantelpiece or beam is incorporated.
Remember to incorporate enough room for the bolster lid to be fully opened.
Where a mantelpiece or beam of
combustible material, (such as wood),
is used in the fireplace, it should be a
minimum of 36” (920mm) from the
appliance*. In some situations it may
be necessary to shield the beam or
mantelpiece to protect it. Shielding
must be of non-combustible material
spaced off the beam by at least ½”
(12mm) on non-combustible spacers.
*This is an unlisted clearance distance, as per NFPA 211
