...of my house. Aside from a LOT of other issues, they put the chimney in the silliest corner of the house. Then built a bar so you have no wiggle between it and a window. We put the hearth where the old one was so we could get the stove in last winter. Last year I got away with some rigged up wall protectors. The original hearth that was here was made from plywood, and wall protector was directly against the wall. When i removed the old wall protectors last year the wall behind it was charred somthing awful.. They were lucky the house didnt burn up on them.
So this is what I had to work with. I used Durok spaced 1"+ off the wall, and have a peice that bolts in place to go over the window. Can be removed for when we stop using the stove for the summer. It just sucks they put a masonry chimney here in this spot, then boxed the space in with a bar. We will be removing the bar in the future, but having to protect the window looks awful.

Side Clearances for the englander 30 are 20" from combustibles, and 12 from non. On the left side its 21" from the bar counter (thats about 4 inches above the top line of the stove anyway), and on the right its about 14" from the wall, but just over 12" to the wall/window protector board. Its 18" above the stove top and 18 to the left in the rear. hows she looking?
