Heat shield material question

[j5swim]

Hello-

I have a Hitzer stove- not positive, but I believe it is a Model 254. Most of the clearance with the wall is not a problem. However, it is about 2 - 2.5 feet at the closest corner. Either way, the wife and I were looking to install a decorative wall cover/heat shield. My question is at 2 feet - would decorative aluminum/tin panels or tile be adequate? We will attach it via metal hat channel. Thanks!

What are the required clearances? If you want it to offer any clearance reduction you will need it spaced off the wall atleast 1" with a 1" gap top and bottom.
