Hampton H200 Cast Freestanding Woodstove 11FLOOR PROTECTIONNOTE: In Canada, fl oor protectionmust extend 18" (450mm) tothe front and 8" (200mm) toeach side and back of thestove.Minimum Overall Depth (Y) of Floor ProtectorResidential Residential Mobile Home AlcoveUnit "C" Vent Close Clearance Close ClearanceY Z Y Z Y Z Y ZH200 (US) 43" 6" (152 mm) 43" 6" (152 mm) 43" 6" (152 mm) 43" 6" (152 mm)(1092 mm) (1092 mm) (1092 mm) (1092 mm)H200 (Canada) 45" 8" (203 mm) 45" 8" (203 mm) 45" 8" (203 mm) 45" 8" (203 mm)(1143 mm) (1143 mm) (1143 mm) (1143 mm)INSTALLATIONMinimum Overall Width (X) of Floor Protector for all installations:H200 36" (914 mm) - US40" (1016 mm) - CanadaHow To Determine If Alternate Floor Protection Materials Are AcceptableThe specified floor protector should be 3/8"(18mm) thick material with a K - factor of0.84.The proposed alternative is 4" (100mm) brickwith a C-factor of 1.25 over 1/8" (3mm) mineralboard with a K-factor of 0.29.Step (a):Use formula above to convert specificationto R-value.R = 1/k x T = 1/0.84 x .75 = 0.893.Step (b):Calculate R of proposed system.4" brick of C = 1.25, thereforeRbrick = 1/C = 1/1.25 = 0.801/8" mineral board of k = 0.29, thereforeRmin.bd. = 1/0.29 x 0.125 = 0.431Total R = Rbrick + Rmineral board =0.8 + 0.431 = 1.231.Step (c):Compare proposed system R of 1.231 tospecified R of 0.893. Since proposed systemR is greater than required, the system isacceptable.DEFINITIONSThermal Conductance:C = Btu = W(hr)(ft2 )(o F) (m2) )(K)Thermal Conductivity:k = (Btu)(inch) = W = Btu(hr)(ft3 )(o F) (m)(K) (hr)(ft)(o F)Thermal Resistance:R = (ft2)(hr)( o F) = (m2)(K)Btu WA combustible floor must be protected by non-combustible material(like tile, concrete board, or certified to UL-1618 or as defined bylocal codes) extending beneath the heater and a minimum of 6"from each side and minimum 16" from the front face of the stoveand minimum 6" (or the rear clearance to combustibles whicheveris smaller) from the rear of the stove.When installed with horizontal venting, non-combustible floorprotection must beneath the flue pipe and extend 2" (51mm)beyond each side.A minimum of a 1/2" thick thermal floor protector with a 0.84kfactor is required when installing the standard or optional shortlegs. This applies to both Canada and the US. All other require-ments (ie. hearth size) remain the same.
