all,
I want to upgrade my Kodiak Insert to a free standing stove but need to extend my hearth. I've seen 2 basic kinds of hearth mats, both approx. R1.5ish. One type is .5 inches thick and is metal covered board. The other type, a much more significant 1.5 inch unit. Will my Huntsman 241 wood stove be able to sit on the cheaper mat without an issue? I have 32 inches hearth height and don't want to cut too much off the legs of the stove to make it work. Thanks in advance for the advice.![hearth pad hearth pad](https://www.hearth.com/talk/data/attachments/222/222075-e343e5a79d2e36e93d3ddb9d33bb7ba7.jpg)
