Hi all
I am very new to the world of wood stoves.
My plan is a heritage in front of the fireplace,exterior chimney,good shape and all.
My question is on the hearth requirements and yes I have read the install pages,but guess am a little dense,
is the hearth r-value requirement for the stove body only or do I need r-value of 1.2 for the entire hearth
which as I understand is the side door clearance of 16",rt. side 5" and front of glass 16".so 1.2 for the entire
hearth or just where stove sits.
Thanks a definite newb
