ComfortBilt 36" Standard Hearth Pad - Sandstone Type 2

Description

36" Standard Hearth Pad in Sandstone Comfortbilt pellet stove hearth pads are crafted from quality ceramics — expertly finished for maximum durability. Choose from a range of styles and enjoy the security of knowing your hearth pad meets all government safety standards. All traditional hearth pads are manufactured as Type 2 (Ember Protection and Thermal Protection) and are not available as a Type 1 (Ember Protection only). Some pellet stove and wood stove installations demand more from the floor beneath them. When a heat shield isn't part of the equation — or when you're working with an older stove or certain high-efficiency models — ember protection alone isn't enough. You need a hearth pad engineered to handle heat as well, and that means stepping up to a Type 2. This fully non-combustible Type 2 hearth pad is rated at an R-value of 2.24 or 1.592, forming a substantial thermal barrier between your stove and the subfloor below. While the minimum R-value requirement for Type 2 pads sits at just 1.0, this pad more than doubles that threshold — offering a level of performance that exceeds code requirements and gives you genuine peace of mind every time you fire up your stove. • 1" frame • 30% lighter than other hearth pads • Single ½" non-combustible substrate with significantly higher R-value than other substrates
