On the placard in back of the stove it has listed stove clearances...These are obviously clearances to combustables. Since I am installing in my basement with block walls, I am able to install closer than the labeled clearances correct? Also I saw that it says Alcove ceiling minimum 84". I am a bit unclear on this. Stove pipe clearance to ceiling is only 18". While I have only 76" high basement ceilings it still gives me almost 4 feet from stove top to ceiling. Why is that not enough clearance when the pipe only needs 18"? Am I missing something here...it did say ("Alcove minimum ceiling"). My stove will sit out in an open room, not sure how that differs from an alcove and would that be the reason for the 84" minimum ceiling height...because alcoves require more clearance than a normal open floor install? Sorry for all the questions, I am just excited about the stove and stressed about all the install particulars. On top of this I am having one heck of a time getting someone with experience to help with the chimney/stove install. Anyhow...any help with the questions above would be great
