Buy some cement board and put some on the dry walled wall and you will be good to go.

non UL rated stoves are usually 24 inches to a combustible wall.
i hate to say this but you might want to check with the insurance company if you insure that building. or it is attached to your house.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

If its in a garage keep it 18 from the floor and sides 18 from combustible materials. The paper on drywall is combustible so if you put a noncombustible material in front of the drywall. The 18 from the floor to any ignition source in the garage is to help prevent combustible fumes from igniting like stored gas. Regular stove pipe also requires 18 from combustible materials. Insulated metalbestos stove pipe only requires 2. clearance from combustible materials.

No insurance, not attached, just common sense safety. No stored fuel in there, but could be wrenching on something with an engine. Floor is cement. Ceiling is sheet rock. Built in mid70's with no regard to code. I'd prefer to put a manufactured wood stove in there, but even used ones are out of my budget. I have the metalbestos pipe and thimble already, so I'm trying to do this for minimal $. I had an oil drip stove in there but the fire pot eventually rusted out. Just trying to answer your question and explain why . Do as you wish good luck

Because combustible fumes pool low near the floor. Its the NFPA code so if your local authorities follow the code its required for any open ignition source like boiler, water heater, or furnace.

Buy some cement board and put some on the dry walled wall and you will be good to go. ^^^^ this is poor advice ... You need an air space between the Sheetrock and cement board ..... Some half inch strapping should work ... The cement board will work just fine the heat Is not being transferred to the rock and that's all you need.
