When does insulation (kraft faced) burn ?
Does anyone know when the batting on insulation combusts? I have a wood stove about 40 inches away from the out side walls that I am insulating. I am worried about it catching fire!! Current temp. is about 160F. Do I need to put Dura Rock behind it? I think I will just to be safe!
Thanks Fellers

You should check the owners manual on your stove for the clearances to combustibles. Usually it's no more than 30". You could add one of those metal pads they sell for stoves against the wall, with a 1" space behind it it will cut your clearance in half.
