This stove board is an essential wood-burning accessory that can be used beneath wood-burning appliances or on the wall behind them to protect floors and walls from intense heat. The type 2-stove board provides non-combustible thermal and ember protection for floors and walls from the intense heat, hot coals, ashes, and soot that wood-burning appliances can produce. The construction is embossed printed steel and 1/2" thick, specially formulated fiberboard backing.
