I have a baby bear number H433482 made by Cesco. Date is 1980 has UL tag on the back and arched top door. Any information where this stove was made also what is the clearance to non combustibles such as tile on the wall.
66% of the "clearance to combustible", but not less than 12 inches since it is not specified in listing of this stove.
The shield (cement board) must be raised, usually on bricks, with air intake under it with no fasteners at center line of stove. The measurement to combustible wall is to the combustible, not the shield. https://www.hearth.com/econtent/index.php/articles/stove_wall_clear
Shield size;
(broken image removed)
With 18 inch clearance to single wall connector pipe, or 6 inches to double wall close clearance connector pipe.
I think you mean Baby Bear VI, as in 6. The IV or 4 are double door stoves.
When the tile board installed It will have about 28 inches clearance from the wall I would assume that with the tile hearth pad and tile one inch off the wall it should be sufficient. You are right it is a Baby Bear VI.
