Imperial Mfg Group Usa Inc BM0134-A Wall Shield Spacing Kit

Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC BM0134-A is a wall shield spacing kit designed to establish proper airflow between stove boards and combustible wall materials in wall-mounted heating appliance installations. The kit includes four spacers that create a 1-inch gap between the stove board heat shield and the wall surface, promoting air circulation that prevents heat transfer from reaching combustible materials. This gap is a code-required clearance reduction method used by hearth and stove installers to safely position solid-fuel and wood-burning appliances closer to walls than standard clearances would otherwise allow.

This spacing kit is used in residential wall-mounted applications where a stove board or heat shield is installed between a heating appliance and a combustible wall. It is appropriate for wood stoves, pellet stoves, and similar hearth appliances where local codes permit clearance reduction through the use of properly spaced heat shields. Hearth installers and stove technicians use this kit during new installations and retrofit clearance upgrades. The four-piece pack provides enough spacers to secure a standard stove board panel at each corner.

Key Features

• Creates a 1-inch air gap between the heat shield and the combustible wall surface
• Promotes convective air circulation to dissipate heat before it reaches combustible materials
• Enables clearance reduction for wall-mounted stove board heat shields
• Sold as a 4-piece pack to cover a full panel installation
• Designed for wall-mounted stove board applications in residential hearth installations

Compatibility

Designed for use with wall-mounted stove board heat shields in residential hearth installations where clearance reduction is required between a heating appliance and combustible wall surfaces.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hearth installer or contractor familiar with NFPA 211 clearance reduction requirements. Shut down and allow the appliance to cool completely before working in the clearance zone. Verify that the spacing kit configuration meets the clearance reduction specifications required by the local authority having jurisdiction before finalizing the installation. Do not compress or omit spacers, as the full 1-inch air gap is required for proper heat shield performance.
