wood stove regs...

as i understand the stove has to be 150mm away from combustable materials, meaning a 150mm gap around the edge of the stove.

If I have a rear exiting flue does that also need to be 150mm away from combustables? Does pink fire retardant plaster board come under combustable materials?

edit..
I've read it incorrectly, the 150mm is the edge of the hearth not the surrounding walls.

depend on the stove and position often more than 6" from flamable material is required from any part off the stove or the flue

8 to 10" is more normal
