I'M INSTALLING CFM240007 W-STOVE. THE MANUAL SHOWS CORNER
7" CLEARANCE. SOUNDS CLOSE?
IS A SLAB OF BLUESTONE & STOVEBOARD GOOD ENOUGH FOR A BASE? :blank:
ANY INFO IS APPRECIATED.
 
HELLO IS ANYONE OUT THERE?
 
You have already asked this question.

We have already answered this question.

What does your manual say?

Does it say that a piece of slate will meet the requirements?
 
Some stove manufactures say 3/8 Non Combustible
Some give you and R value to stick to
 
I gave you the 1800 # and a link to the paperwork that came wioth the stove- do you have the stove in the house yet?

Try giving them a call.

Installation on a Combustible Floor
If the appliance is to be installed on a combustible floor or a combustible floor covering, it must be installed
on a 3/8”(10mm) thick non-combustible millboard floor protector or durable equivalent. The pad must be
installed beneath the appliance extending 18”(457mm)in Canada, 16”(406mm) in the U.S. on any side
equipped with a door, and 8”(203mm) on all other sides. In the U.S. the pad must cover any horizontal
chimney connector runs and extend 2”(51mm) beyond each side.
A grouted ceramic floor-tile surface installed per local building code is considered a durable equivalent.
