- Scope
This guide can be used by code officials, architects, and other interested parties to evaluate the design and construction of masonry heaters. It is not restricted to a specific method of construction, nor does it provide all specific details of construction of a masonry heater. This guide does provide the principles to be followed for the safe construction of masonry heaters.
This guide is not intended as a complete set of directions for construction of masonry heaters.
Construction of masonry heaters is complex, and in order to ensure their safety and performance, construction shall be done by or under the supervision of a skilled and experienced masonry heater builder.
1.1 This guide covers the design and construction of solid fuel burning masonry heaters. It provides dimensions for site constructed masonry heater components and clearances that have been derived by experience and found to be consistent with the safe installation of those masonry heaters.
1.2 Values given in SI units are to be regarded as standard. Inch/pound units may be rounded (see ). All dimensions are nominal unless specifically stated otherwise. All clearances listed in this guide are actual dimensions.
1.3 This guide applies to the design and construction of masonry heaters built on-site with the components and materials specified herein. It does not apply to the construction/installation requirements for component systems that have been safety tested and listed. The requirements for listed masonry heater systems are specified in the manufacturer''s installation instructions.
1.4 The design and construction of solid fuel burning masonry heaters shall comply with applicable building codes.
