Installation
SAFETY NOTICE: IF YOUR STOVE IS NOT PROP-
ERLY INSTALLED, A HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT. TO
REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, FOLLOW THE INSTAL-
LATION INSTRUCTIONS. CONTACT LOCAL BUILD-
ING OR FIRE OFFICIALS ABOUT RESTRICTIONS
AND INSTALLATION INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS
IN YOUR AREA.
Before you begin an installation, review your plans to
see that:

Your stove and chimney connector will be far
enough from combustible material to meet all
clearance requirements.

The oor protector is large enough and is con-
structed properly to meet all requirements.

You have all necessary permits from local author-
ities.
Your local building ofcial is the nal authority for ap-
proving your installation as safe and determining that it
meets local and state codes.
The metal label permanently attached to the back of
every Vermont Castings stove indicates the stove has
been tested to current standards. The test standard
is EN13240:2001 + A2:2004 for Europe. Clearance
and installation information also is printed on the label.
When the stove is installed according to the information
both on the label and in this manual, local authorities
in most cases will accept the label as evidence that the
installation meets codes and can be approved.
However, codes vary in different countries. Before
starting the installation, review your plans with the local
building authority. You local dealer can provide any ad-
ditional information needed.
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow these installation
instructions may result in a dangerous situation, in-
cluding a chimney or house re. Follow all instruc-
tions exactly, and do not allow makeshift compro-
mises to endanger property and personal safety.
All local regulations, including those referring to
national and European standards, need to be com-
plied with when installing this stove.
Outside Air
In some modern, super-insulated homes, there is not
enough air for combustion because of insufcient air
inltration into the building. Such air enters a home
through unsealed cracks and openings. Kitchen or bath
exhaust fans can compete with the stove for available
air and compound the problem.
When poor draft is caused by a low inltration rate,
opening a ground oor window on the windward side
of the house and in the vicinity of the stove will usually
alleviate the problem.
Another solution is to install a permanent outside air
supply to the stove and/or room. In some areas, in
fact, bringing air for combustion from outside the home
directly to the air inlet of the stove is required for new
construction.
An outside air supply is not affected by pressure varia-
tions within the house, and improved stove perfor-
mance often results. An Outside Air Adaptor Kit
