OK so I should of known that my US Stove Co stove APS 1100B was made in China. Whats worse is the company gives me a different answer everytime I ask the same question. Maybe someone here actually knows their stuff since when I called them, they didnt even know what an R value was. Enough said?
OK here is what Im trying to do. I want to make a floor protector to put over a wood floor. What I had planned was 1 sheet of 1/2" Micore 300 (R 1.03), then a .42 inch Hardiebacker (R .20) , then ceramic tile for this small wood stove at my cottage. It would have a total R value of 1.23 plus the tile. The company wont or cant tell me (They change their answer with every person) if that is enough R value. It only says in the manual it should be placed on 1/4" surface. Can anyone help here? Will this work? Thanks in advance.
