We own a V C Defiant Encore model 2550 which we purchased in 1998. We are going to sell our home and have realized that the placement of our stove is only 18" from the wall. We are unsure of the best route to go in order to get the stove up to code. What suggestions do the folks on this forum have for us? We have attempted to find a heat shield on the VC website with no success. Jeanie Cannon Wimberley, Texas
