Mend Hoping Help Heat

How do i fit a log burner in a caravan?

I am looking to fit a log burner into a static caravan. I know it can be done, but i was hoping someone with a little knowledge could help me?
Do i need a specific heat proofing sheet around the walls and floor in which the burner will be stood? And Do you need specific heat resistance tiles around it, or can i use any standard tile??
I am just a little worried that the walls may get too hot and some sort of heat proofing may be required

Thanks

John is correct Expert advice is required.
Seek as he says from the stove supplier /makers.
And also from the static caravan MANUFACTURER giving the weight of the stove as you may need to re-inforce the floor if it's a large stove.

I think you need to get professional fitting advice on this one...at least you'll need a dual pipe flue (thats one with an internal and external pipe in the one unit) and significant fireproofing material to go below and around the log burner area as the heat produced can be tremendous. You would need to surround the burner with refractory tiles to prevent heat transfer.
