Width 35-40cm
The stoves in this collection are 35-40cm in width.
We recommend that, as long as the stove's installation manual does not say otherwise*) the minimum air gap at each side of the stove is as follows:
- 10cm if the fireplace recess is lined with a fireproof board or render (less likelihood of any board or render cracking with heat)
- 5cm if the fireplace recess is unlined and made of brick or stone
*Once you have decided on a stove you can usually download the installation manual online.
The above are minimums. The bigger the air gap the more easily heat can make its way into the room.
