FLOOR PROTECTOR

Yourwoodstoveshouldbeplacedona1inch,non-combustiblesurfacewithakfactorof0.84.For

multiplelayers,addR-valuesofeachlayertodeterminetheoverallR-value.TheRvalueforthe

requiredboardis1.2.Theoorprotectorshouldbeunderthestove,twenty-sixinchesbeyondthefront

andsixinchesbeyondeachsideofthefuelloadingandashremovalopening.Ifthereisahorizontal

sectionofchimneyconnector,theoorprotectorshouldgounderitandtwoinchesbeyondeachside

ConvertspecicationtoR-value:

 k-factorisgivenwitharequiredthickness(T)ininches:R=1/kxT

 C-factorisgiven:R=1/C

Example:

 If the oor protector is 4” brick with a C-factor of 1.25 over 1/8” mineral board with a “k”

factor of0.29thetotalR-valueofthesystemis:

 4”brickC=1.25,R=1/1.25=0.8

 1/8”mineralboardK=0.29,R=1/0.29x0.125=0.431

 TotalR=Rbrick+Rmineral=0.8+0.431=1.231

 TotalRisgreaterthan1.2,thesystemisacceptable.

Theoorprotectorshouldexceedthestoveasfollows:
