I got my new blaze king install inspected on Friday and passed the inspection. Again, OAK was required even with this new inspector. The permit only specified "woodstove" and not the location and since this inspector also inspected my new 30x60 pole barn I had to show him that the stove was in my house. Permits don't specify brand, model, location, or photographs.
So I asked, what if the stove was in my shop? He said they approve them all the time so long as the stove is up on an 18" platform and is an EPA certified stove. My shop has three 12x12 overhead doors and I believe that the fire code prohibits a woodstove in the shop (garage) but I want one and plan to install it in any case so an approved permit would be just awesome. I even acquired a fisher pre-epa stove to install but it is not EPA.
So I need an EPA stove at least temporarily to get an approval for a shop stove on my title. Later I can swap out to whatever I want without worry. Has anyone ever borrowed an EPA stove from a dealer, rented it, or must I buy one? If I buy one, has anyone returned one to the store? I like the NC30 but would like to buy it in the off-season. Should I explain my issue to the stove shop not? How would you all proceed?
I am currently installing ceiling rafters so I can set the ceiling support box and install the chimney. The old fisher is soaking in diesel after getting a rough brushing with the wire wheel.
