PAGE 10 STOVE INSTALLATION (CONT.)
ALCOVE INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Whenever the stove is placed in a location where the ceiling height is less than 7' tall, it is considered an
alcove installation. Because of the reduced height, the special installation requirements listed below
must be met.
¥ Chimney connector and chimney must be one of the following types:
¥ DURAVENT model DVL with DURA-PLUS chimney
¥ AMERI-TEC model DCC with model HS chimney
¥ SECURITY model DP with SECURITY model ASHT or S2100 chimney
¥ GSW model Super Chimney Twenty-One connected directly to appliance
¥ SELKIRK METALBESTOS model DS connector with model SSII chimney
¥ I.C.C. Excel 103HT Chimney with Ultrablack HP Double-Wall connector
¥ Standard Masonry Chimney with any one of the above listed connectors
¥ Alcoves are classified as combustible or non-combustible. Non-combustible alcoves must have
walls and a ceiling that are 3 1/2" thick of a non-combustible material (brick, stone, or concrete).
This non-combustible material must be spaced and ventilated at least 1" off of all combustible
materials (walls, ceiling, etc.) to allow air to move around the non-combustible walls and ceiling.
All other alcoves are considered combustible. The clearances below must be met:
