Hello All,
First off let me say I am a newbie to all this, and I am having a new lopi republic 1250 installed by my local professionals, next week. It has all been ordered, and they have come to my home and checked out the site, and ordered everything I would need to make it all to code. Hearth pad, double wall SS pipe, the whole nine yards. My question is that when I contacted my insurance co, they sent me a form, and it seems to be an old form. It says that the stove needs 36'' all the way around for clearances, but the company that is installing it, says it only needs 10'' to the combustable walls for a corner install? I have checked the specs myslef, and it does say it only needs 10'' to the walls, so how do i deal with my insurance co? I know the company is going all by the code, but it seems my insurance co may be behind the times maybee? thanks for the input.
