hi guys, hoping to find some help finding the ibc for stove install. i recently aquired an agricola furnace co. U80_D stove. to me the logical thing to do was call the county permit office to see what the building code is. man was i dissapointed! the local inspector gave me a less than 5 minute speech about using the instructions. i informed him that we were dealing with an older(if not antique) stove and that i was not able to provide any paperwork from the manufacturer but asked if there were any generic building codes to follow. he promptly told me i was out of luck and should probably discard(really?) the stove. and that he would not be able to inspect the install. i replied that my father had done a similar stove install and was able to get it covered by insurance and he tried to get me to give up my dads address so he could check for a permit-YEAH RIGHT. conversation was ended.
so ive already searched IBC because ohio code is taken from IBC, but cannot find install specs for a generic wood burner install. i have not called my insurance company yet- i think its best to have all my ducks in a row first. I KNOW THIS QUESTION HA BEEN ASKED A MILLION TIMES but where can i find the install codes?
i realize that my insurance company may not REQUIRE an inspection but im expecting it, and would like to follw all proper guidelines for the purposes of selling the home in the future. thanks for your help
