I have a question about side wall clearances. My Encore is installed on a hearth. One wall is parallel to the rear of the stove, so it's a non issue. The other wall is at about a 45 degree angle, angling away from the stove. So at its closest point, the rear corner of the stove is about 25" from the wall, the distance increasing to about 33" from the front corner.
My manual calls for a minimum of 18" of clearance to an unprotected wall running parallel to the side of the stove. So clearly I'm fine per the requirement. However, that wall feels a bit toastier than I'd really like (not too hot to touch, just really warm). Reason for concern?
