In January 2011, the new UL1618 standard for Wall Protectors, Floor Protectors, and Hearth Extensions, took effect. The new standard addresses the needs of modern, efficient stoves that emit more heat and clarifies how the R-value of heart proctors is measured and specified. The course will cover the basics of thermal energy flow to give the participant a good foundation for designing site-built hearth protection, specifying manufactured heart protectors, and confidently discussing heart protection issues with a building inspector.
