Is there any reason I can't place my stove in a corner with a full length window on one side providing I follow clearance guidelines.

The stove is a PE Super Steptop

Thanks
 
Sounds OK to me. Glass doesn't burn. Generating heat where you have the greatest heat losses is a good thing.
 
I would be generous on the clearance guidelines and be sure to measure from the window sill protrusion. IIRC, this question was asked a couple years ago and we had reports about window damage due to extreme temp difference between the outside and stove side. The PE, with its jacketed sides should be a good choice for this type of installation.
