• Outside air for combustion, if needed. Must be drawn from an approved location.
• Space requirements. Must meet minimum clearances between the stove and combustibles. More space than the minimum required may be desirable to provide room for convenient operation and service.
• Electrical requirements. Proximity to properly wired outlet.

What are my choices for floor protection?

The floor must be protected according to manufacturer's instructions. The minimum size of the noncombustible floor protector is clearly specified in installation instructions an must be followed closely. Built in appliances may require additional protection such as an air space between the appliance and the floor protector.

What electrical requirements should be checked?

The pellet stove dealer or installer should check the intended appliance outlet for proper voltage, ground, and polarity. The electrical circuit to be used should have a properly rated circuit breaker.
