How is the Harvia Legend 150 installed?
The Harvia Legend 150 stands on a floor strong enough to carry it and its stones, on its adjustable legs, inside the safety distances below, and connects to a T600 chimney. Harvia's manual says all local regulations apply, that the stove is not suitable for a shared flue, and that the local fire authorities can give detailed fire-safety requirements. Harvia's installation manual, under Documents, gives the step-by-step installation and the chimney connection.
Does the Harvia Legend 150 need floor protection?
It depends on the floor under the Harvia Legend 150. A bare concrete floor at least 2.4" (60 mm) thick needs no protection. A tile floor needs Harvia protective bedding or similar heat-radiation protection, because the adhesives and waterproofing under tile do not resist the stove's heat. A floor made of combustible material needs the bedding too, plus non-combustible floor protection in front of the stove door. Harvia's Legend manual names the WL100 Legend protective bedding; the Harvia WL100 protective bedding (Protective Bedding SM) is sold separately and does not come with the stove.
Harvia Legend 150 safety distances
Keep at least these distances between the Harvia Legend 150 and anything that can burn. Harvia's distances assume the stones are piled so that they cover the stove body.
Harvia Legend 150 minimum safety distances (Harvia manual Y05-0136 09/25)
| Top of the stove to the ceiling |
39.4" (1,000 mm) |
| Sides to combustible material |
7.9" (200 mm) |
| Rear to combustible material |
9.8" (250 mm) |
| Front to combustible material |
19.7" (500 mm) |
| To a masonry wall |
2.0" (50 mm) if air can circulate in front and at one side; 3.9" (100 mm) in a recess |
Harvia Legend 150 with the WL200 protective sheath and WL300 smoke-pipe cover (Harvia manual Y05-0136 09/25, figure 10)
| Side wall to the WL200 sheath |
1.2" (30 mm) |
| Rear wall to the WL200 sheath |
1.2" (30 mm) |
| Gap between the WL200 sheath and the stove |
2.0" (50 mm) |
| Rear wall to the WL300 smoke-pipe cover |
6.5" (165 mm) |

The shorter distances apply only with the sheath and cover fitted; without them, use the first table.
Connecting the Harvia Legend 150 to a chimney
The Harvia Legend 150 connects at the top or the rear through a 4.5" (115 mm) opening, to a chimney of temperature class T600 with a flue at least 4.3" (110 mm) across; it cannot share a flue with another fireplace. The Harvia WHP1500 chimney kit (sold separately) fits the top opening, and its page gives the roof and clearance requirements. For North American 6" chimney pipe, the Harvia WZ115155 pipe adapter (sold separately) adapts the opening.
