What material can be used on fire wall behind an air tight wood stove?
no
Is a fire wall required behind a wood stove?
A firewall (also called a fire shield) can be used to reduce the safe distance between a stove and a wall. A wood stove can radiate heat for long periods and it will accumulate in materials that are too close. A standard design goal is to leave 2 or 3 feet of air between an uninsulated stove (or stovepipe) and any flammable materials (paint, wooden wall interiors, insulation, wooden or plastic trim, floors, etc). As a rule of thumb, if a nearby surface is too hot to rest your bare hand on, then it is too close to the stove. When properly designed and installed a firewall can reflect or dissipate heat from the stove, protecting the wall behind it, thus permitting the stove to be moved closer to the wall without creating a fire hazard. The installation guide or contractor can assist in determining the safety clearances around a stove with or without a firewall. For example, an asbestos fire shield installed with a one-inch air-gap behind and below it may permit the distance to the stove to be cut in half (i.e., 18 inches minimum, less if the stove design permits it).

What is a stove board?
A stove board is a rectangle or square of sheet steel, usually having sides of about three or four feet, backed with thin insulation, used for the stove to sit on to protect the floor. You can also protect the wall behind a stove by putting a stove board behind it. Very old stove boards might be backed with asbestos, and I would avoid them.

What space is needed around a wood burning stove?
The gap around the stove to the wall really depends on the stove manufacturers guidelines. My stove has a gap of 50mm (5cm) all the way around. The UK building regulations 'document J' states that a minimum gap of 150mm should extend from the side of the front doors of the stove to the edge of the hearth and a minimum of 300mm to the front. A stove that is close to the wall will have poorer air circulation around it meaning the heat released to your room will be less. Think of it like standard UK radiator, it sits a few inches from the wall to allow air circulation, if it was flush to the wall all you are doing is spending your hard earned cash heating the wall. A lot of people seem to think that the gap around the stove needs to be 150mm to the wall but this is not the case.
