INSTALLATION
THROUGH THE WALL INSTALLATION
(RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION)
To vent the unit through the wall, connect the pipe
adapter to the exhaust motor adapter. If the exhaust
adapter is at least 18-inches above ground level, a
straight section of pellet vent pipe can be used through
the wall.

Your
dealer should be able to pro-
vide you with a kit that will handle most of this installa-
tion, which will
include a wall thimble that will allow
the proper clearance through a combustible wall. Once
outside the structure, a 3-inch clearance should be
maintained from the outside wall and a clean out tee
should be placed on the pipe with a 90-degree turn
away from the house. At this point, a 3-foot
(minimum) section of pipe should be added with a
horizontal cap, which would complete the installation
(see FIGURE 7).
A support bracket should be placed just below the ter-
mination cap or one every 4-feet to make the system
more stable. If you live in an area that has heavy
snowfall, it is recommended that the installation be
taller than 3-feet to get above the snowdrift line. This
same installation can be used if your stove is below
ground level by simply adding the clean-out section
and vertical pipe inside until ground level is reached.
With this installation you have to be aware of the
snowdrift line, dead grass, and leaves. We recommend

The "through the wall" installation is the least expensive and simplest installation. Never terminate the end vent un-
®
der a deck, in an alcove, under a window, or between two windows. We recommend Simpson Dura-Vent
or Metal-
®
Fab
kits.
THROUGH THE ROOF/CEILING INSTALLATION
When venting the stove through the ceiling, the pipe is connected the same as through the wall, except the clean-
out tee is always on the inside of the house, and a 3-inch adapter is added before the clean-out tee.
You must use the proper ceiling support flanges and roof flashing (supplied by the pipe manufacturer; follow the
pipe manufacturer's directions). It is important to note that if your vertical run of pipe is more than 15-feet, the
pellet vent pipe size should be increased to 4-inches in diameter.
Do not exceed more than 4-feet of pipe on a horizontal run and use as few elbows as possible. If an offset is re-
quired, it is better to install 45-degree elbows rather than 90-degree elbows.
