5.2.1 PROTECTING THE FLOOR
If your ooring is ammable (parquet, oating platform) or sensitive to heat, it is
necessary to place a protective layer that separates the heater from the oor.
This protection must be make of a material that is resistant to re, such as marble,
steel plating, slabs, etc. This material must be capable of bearing load without being
deformed or broken by the weight of the heater.
This protection must be at least two mm thick and must project at least 150 mm
beyond the heater on both sides and to the rear, and 300 mm at the front.
