New Wood Stove Location
Completed for a client. This home has a wood stove tucked back into a bedroom. With a full sized bed in there the space was too tight to safely use the stove. Plus it tended to overheat that back smaller portion of the home.
This tile install will allow the wood stove to be relocated into the main living room area. To keep the combustion clearances down an "air gap" wall was constructed.

Nicely done. Code here doesn't even allow a stove in the bedroom.
