I. SAFETY FIRST
This stove is suitable for a conventional home installation. Read all instructions
carefully before starting the installation. Save this manual for future reference.
1. Failure to follow the instructions could cause a malfunction of the
stove, damage to the stove, property damage, bodily injury or even
death.
2. Familiarize yourself with the stove’s operation. If you are not sure,
ask your dealer for explanations on your stove’s proper operation.
3. Check your local building codes regarding restrictions or installation
requirements. All installations must comply with local building
codes.
4. Follow this manual carefully for proper installation. If you are un-
certain, please contact your dealer. Most dealers have trained and
qualied installers. We highly recommend the use of their services.
5. Replace broken or defective components only with parts provided by
the manufacturer. See www.kozistoves.com or contact your local
dealer to nd out how to purchase replacement parts.
6. Store all fuel at a safe distance (at least 36 inches/1 meter) away from
the stove. DO NOT place the fuel within the installation clearances
of the stove or within the space needed for ash removal and start up.
7. The stove must be allowed to cool before cleaning. Make sure there
are no hot ashes or embers present. Use a brush and scoop to clean.
Only use vacuums specically designed for use with hot ashes. Place
all ashes in a sealed metal container with a tight tting lid.
8. A chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space,
closet or similar concealed space, or a oor or ceiling. Where
passage through a wall, or partition of combustible construction is
desired, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365, Installa-
tion Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment
9. Do not connect this stove to a chimney ue serving another appliance.
10. Do NOT burn garbage or any ammable uids such as gasoline,
naphtha or engine oil. Do NOT burn treated wood, or any woods
with salt (driftwood). Burning any materials other than wood can
generate carbon monoxide (CO) in the home which can result in
illness or possibly death.
11. All homes with a solid fuel burning stove should have a minimum of
one re extinguisher in a central location known to all and a smoke
detector in the room containing the stove. If it sounds the alarm,
correct the cause but do not deactivate or remove the smoke detector.

2. Clearances to Combustibles
Please refer to all gures for the clearances to combustibles for your stove. Please
note that these clearances are specically for your KOZI stove only. Each venting
manufacturer/supplier has their individual clearances which must also be respected.

3. Floor Protection
If the stove is to be placed on a combustible material, a non-combustible material
(minimum 1/4” thick) must be placed directly underneath the stove. In the U.S.
the non-combustible material must extend 6” from the sides and back of the stove
and extend 16” from the front. In Canada you must have 8” from the sides and
back and extend 18” from the front of the stove.

Figure 4. Floor Protection Dimensions For a KOZI Wood Stove
Note: When installed with horizontal venting, a non-combustible oor protector
is needed under the chimney connector and must extend 2” (51 mm) on each side.
It is very important that the proper material be chosen for your oor protector. There
are a few terms that we need to know before choosing the proper oor protector:
Thermal Resistance - R
Thermal Conductivity - k
Thermal Conductance - C
The stove must be placed on an insulated surface with a minimum thermal resistance
of R = 0.30. Not all material is listed with an R-value. Follow these calculations
to calculate the R-value when it is not specied:
1. When the thermal conductivity is specied then,
R = 1/k x T (where T is the thickness of the material in inches)
2. When the thermal conductance is specied then,
R = 1/C
For multiple layers, add the R-values of each layer to determine an overall R-value.
If the overall R-value of the multiple layers is greater than or equal to 0.30, it will
be considered as a sufcient oor protector for this stove.

4. Stove Pipe (Chimney Connector) Installation
Please follow these steps carefully to ensure a proper installation. Failure to do so
can cause damage to the home, bodily harm or even death.
1. Select a location you want to install the stove. Ensure that the clear-
ances for the stove are all satised.
2. Place the stove in the location and mark on the ceiling where the
ue pipe will need to go (for a vertical installation). Use a plumb
bob or a laser to accurately mark where the center of the ue pipe
lines up on the ceiling.
3. Check the mark to see if the ue pipe will interfere with any trusses,
plumbing, wiring, joists or rafters. If any joists or rafters need to be
cut, they MUST be made structurally sound again.
4. Cut the hole in the roof and ceiling to accommodate the stove pipe.
Follow the chimney manufacturer’s instructions if extra framing
is required.
5. Install all the components as shown in Figure 5 or Figure 6. Roof
braces may be required if the chimney extends too high above the
roof.
6. Ensure that the proper stove pipe is installed with this stove. The
ue pipe on the top of the stove is designed to have a 6” diameter
chimney connector. The stove must be connected to a stove pipe
listed by the UL 103 HT standard in the United States or by the
ULC S629 Standard in Canada
7. Secure the stove pipe to the ue pipe on the top of the stove with
3 screws.
8. A chimney connector cannot pass through an attic or roof space, closet
or similar concealed space, or a oor, ceiling, wall or partition of
combustible construction. If passage through a wall or partition is
desired, the installation shall conform to the NFPA 211 standard in
the United States and to the CAN/CSA-B365 Standard (Installation
Code for Solid Fuel Burning Appliances and Equipment) in Canada.
