Using Outside Air with the Pedestal

The pedestal kit includes all of the items necessary to route outside air to the stove from the floor.
Before installing, check the section "Outside Air Requirements" on page 9 for installation concerns. The
directions below outline the steps for installing outside air with a pedestal.
1. Before installing the stove or pedestal, determine the location of the outside air hole that
penetrates through the floor protection and floor. The illustration on the previous page details the
size of pedestal and its location in relation to the faceplate of the stove. The hole may be cut
anywhere underneath the pedestal, as long as it is not within 2" of the outside perimeter of the
pedestal, is at least 16 square inches in area, and does not interfere with structural members of
the home. Cut the hole when the correct location is determined. Place the screen over the hole
and secure it in place with the included staples. It can be attached above or below the floor.
2. Place the pedestal in place. Tuck the insulation included with the pedestal underneath the side
edges of pedestal to seal off any air from entering underneath the pedestal.
3. Attach the cover plate to the front of the stove. Remove the two screws that hold the piece that
fits over the air control rod in place. Slide the air control plate in place underneath the air control
rod. Replace the piece removed from the cover plate. The cover plate should form an air-tight
seal against the air control portion of the stove (see the illustration below).

The outside air boot includes all of the items necessary to route outside air to the stove for combustion
when a stove is installed on legs. Before installing, check the section "Outside Air Requirements" on
page 9 for installation concerns. The directions below outline the steps for installing outside air boot.
1. Before installing the stove, determine the location of the outside air hole that penetrates through
the floor protection and floor. The illustrations below detail the size of the outside air boot and
its location in relation to the faceplate of the stove. The hole may be cut anywhere underneath
the outside air boot, as long as it is not within 1" of the outside perimeter of the outside air boot,
is at least 16 square inches in area, and does not interfere with structural members of the home.
Cut the hole when the correct location is determined.
2. Install the legs (see instructions above). Pry out the outside air knock-out. It is 7" wide, 2" deep,
and 6 11/16" back from the front of the stove. See the illustration below.
3. Align the air boot over the knock-out and mark the locations where the two holes located on the
top side of the air boot line up on the bottom of the stove. Use the included 9/64" drill bit to drill
holes into the bottom of the stove where the marks were placed (you may need to tilt the stove or
place it on its side). Drill only enough to penetrate the first layer of metal.
See the instructions for
exact location and size.
