Ashford 30 hearthpad size plz check

[nEWRfire]

I am installing an ashford 30 in a rectanguar room in front of a combustable wall. Are these 2 assumptions correct.

A) The rear of the ashford 30 must be at least 16" from combustible wall
B) The front of the hearth pad must extend 16" from front of ashford 30


Ashford 30 is approx 29" from back to front so if I want a hearth pad to go from wall to the necessary distance in front of ashford 30 and the stove to sit on hearth pad it needs to be at least 61" long (16+16+29) ? Seems big especially as I want to do more than the minimum .

Are my calcs correct.

Unit Dimensions
Width 29 1/2” (750 mm)
Height 32 7/8” (835 mm)
Depth 29 3/8” (746 mm)
Weight 500 lbs. (226.8 kg)
Flue Diameter 6" / 152.4mm

See attached file for clearence specs

The hearth needs to protect 8" behind the stove, 8" to each side and 16" in front of the door, so add 16" to the width of the stove and 24" to the depth. If your local regulating authority allows you to put an NFPA 211 wall shield behind the stove then the rear clearance can be reduced to 12".

So there can be a strip of bare floor behind the stove between hearth and wall?

Just asking.

Yes, especially if the flue goes straight up.

I read that as only needing 6" behind the stove (and my Ashford 30.1 is a lot closer to 6" than 16")

Good point. To clarify, it depends where one is measuring from. It's 16 3/8" from the stove body, but 6" from the furthest rear protrusion.

I think the 16 3/8" is to the centerline of the chimney.

Also please keep in mind the stove builder says to install double wall black pipe (dvl) to either class a chimney or a lined masonry chimney, some still choose to use single wall pipe, single wall pipe has to be a minimum 18" from any combustibles.
