I have a Fisher 2 door (glass) measure 251/2" top, 30 1/2" rear height, 24 1/2" front height, Door opening 17" width, 10 1/2" height. I believe it is a Grandma VI. Looking for Manual. Clearance specs.
Thank-you for the info. My doors are shaped like those doors in the III pics except the vents are on the top of the door above the glass. Is this a Canadian version of the Grandma III ? There is no plate or sticker. The doors also have a chrome trim around the doors and the fisher name is chromed as well. It came with chrome claw feet that fit on the angle iron legs. Also does the clearance for the pipe to ceiling change when the installation uses a 6" stove pipe instead of the 8 "? This install is connected to a 7" round clay flue inside a mason block chimney with a 6" thimble (connector) for the 6" stove pipe.
The first glass III doors had the intake above glass.
Are these your doors shown on this Insert?
They soon made the stove with a plate across the front with the intake sliders to provide air wash over glass.
The feet don't fit the Listed version of the stove. (without angle iron corners) Pictures would show me what you have. If you have the old style with angle iron corners, it is a III made for use on hearth or non-combustible area and was not Listed. They were sold $100 cheaper when a listed stove was not required on a hearth or non-combustible surface.
The plating is nickel. Chrome peels with heat, nickel gets harder when heated. They were black or optional plated with brass or nickel.
The feet were only chromed in a version facing forward and made of cast iron. This version was smooth with no hair detail. They are quite rare. Any feet with hair molded in are plated with white brass. There were a few facing straight forward made of cast iron, plated with white brass, the more common angled variety are white metal and not magnetic.
Pipe clearance only changes with single or double wall, not diameter.
