2.3. STOVE bASE
The stove must be installed horizontally, on a stable and
unmoveable non-flammable or fireproofed base. For this, you
may either use Kastor’s separately sold protective stove base
or a concrete sheet with a minimum thickness of at least
60 mm with a slight incline towards the back and a smooth
surface.
Each corner of the stove is equipped with adjustment screws,
with which it can be straightened horizontally on an inclined
floor and fine tuned vertically to align it with the chimney
connection. The adjustable legs are delivered in the equipment
bag in the stove’s fire compartment. Screw them into place and
adjust as needed.
We do not recommend installing the stove directly on a tiled
floor, as its moisture sealing, tile glue etc. may contain compo-
nents that are not heat resistant.
Fireproofing of the floor on flammable material
400 mm in front of the stove •
200 mm to the sides •
250 mm behind the stove (or, at the sides and back up to a •
fireproofed wall; picture 2.3.).
2.3.1. INSTALLATION ON WOODEN FLOOR WITH A CAST
CONCRETE bASE
On a wooden floor we recommend installation on a 60 mm
thick, smoothly cast concrete slab, which rises towards the
back, with risers to provide a ventilation slit between it and the
floor. The stove is then straightened by adjusting the legs.

2.3.2. INSTALLATION ON TILED AND WATERPROOF FLOOR
The Kastor protective stove base is sufficient, a separate fron-
ting plate is not necessary.
2.4. SAFETY DISTANCES AND PROTECTIONS
2.4.1. SAFETY DISTANCES
Kastor’s KH and KO series sauna stoves have a double mantle
construction on sides and back, which keeps the temperature
of the outer mantle below 100 ºC. The front panel is hotter, and
a lot of heat radiation passes through the door’s glass.
for stone walls, the safety distances are constant at all
heights, 50 mm from the stove’s outer surfaces, preferably 100
mm to achieve sufficient air circulation.
Below the stone compartment, the safe distance to flammable
material is 200 mm to the sides and 250 mm in back. Above
the stone compartment, the safety distance is 500 mm due to
the heat of the stones (a maximum of 350 ºC).
Due to heat radiation and the working and maintenance space
needed, 1,000 mm is a reasonable distance, but 500 mm is
sufficient to ensure safety (Picture 2.4.1.).
If the flue pipe starts off from the top of the stove with an unin-
sulated connection pipe, the required safety distance is 1,000
mm in all directions and 1,200 mm above.
The safe distance between a fitted water tank and the nearest
flammable material above it is 150 mm.
These safety distances can be reduced by using protectors
according to instructions given below. These will enable you to
install the stove in a space just 1,100 mm wide (stove width
520 mm + safety distances on both sides 280 mm + 280 mm).
