Clearances to combustible materials must be strictly adhered to. Compromising these clearances will lead to
severe fire hazards and will result in a house fire. If ever in doubt about the classification of a building material
located near this pellet stove, contact the Jamestown dealer or the local fire Marshall to determine if that
particular material has been classified as a non-combustible material. Failure to adhere to the clearances
requirements will void all applicable warranty and/or claims against the manufacturer..

B. Installing on Carpet or Other Combustible Floor Surfaces
All Jamestown free-standing stoves must be installed on a non-combustible floor pad or
a masonry hearth. The hearth or floor pad must extend the full width and depth of the
stove and also extend a minimum of 6" (152mm) from the front of the stove face. Please
refer to Figure 1. The standard pedestal base, available through a Jamestown dealer,
for the J1000B and J2000T model stoves meets this floor protection requirement.
Installation of a Freestanding Stove on carpeting or other combustible floor surfaces requires the installation of a Floor Protection
Pad in addition to a pedestal or legs. The standard pedestal bases (Bases #J1065B and J1065T-1 for Model J1000B and Base
#J2030 for Model J2000T) qualify as standard floor protection pads and may be used when installing the Freestanding Stoves on
carpeting or combustible floor surfaces.
J1000B RISER REQUIREMENT
When installing the J1000B pellet stove as a hearth model without pedestal or legs, a riser (part # J1065B) must
be securely attached to the stove bottom in order to provide adequate clearance to the floor surface under the
stove. This riser must be used even when the floor under the stove is constructed of a non-combustible material.
