I looked through the manual and there is no mention of what this is. Is it required? Is it a heat shield? Please ignore the dirt on it I havent cleaned it off - the remnants of a flood that was a few inches deep.

Actually the label is metal and it is attached to every Hearthstone stove with a thin cable/wire (you can see it in the picture). It kind of like an over-sized metal flash card for your stove.

You've got to be kidding me. Surely that will guarantee it will never get lost of separated from the stove.

But, yeah, it looks like a bottom heat shield.

I found it to be odd as well.

+1 with you there Browning. bottom heat sheild
As far as the tag I think attaching it this way is better than any other option. You can't rivet it to the stove since they are stone.

This is a Shelburne castiron stove.
DanCorcoran said:I have a Vanguard gas log stove (for sale, used to be my wife's, before we got married) and it, too, has a metal tag that same size, attached with wire to the back of the stove. I just assumed it was a regulatory requirement, so that new owners would have some idea what they're buying. In the case of the Vanguard, it's important that it be used only with natural gas and not propane/LP.
Is the exploded diagram online? Just curious because my manual doesnt have one and I looked on there website and downloaded the pdf's and dont see one. If you had a link I'd like to have it. But still the question remains is this bottom heat shield required or is it extra to reduce hearth requirements?DanCorcoran said:The metal plate is item #16 on the exploded parts diagram for the Shelburne...bottom heatshield.

You need an R value of 0.8 with the integrated heat shield.
