CAUTION: Do not install this appliance in any manner other than as described in this manual.
If you have any questions about properly venting or installing your Reliant pellet stove, please
contact your dealer or American Energy Systems, Inc. for information.
NOTE: THIS STOVE MUST BE BURN TESTED OUTSIDE IN A WELL VENTILATED
AREA FOR AT LEAST ONE HOUR. THIS WILL CURE THE PAINT AND SEASON
THE STOVE METAL. SMOKING AND STEAMING IS NORMAL DURING THE
CURING PROCESS, AND MAY CONTINUE DURING THE FIRST FEW TIMES THE
STOVE IS USED.
The ONLY authorized exhaust vent pipe for this appliance is 3 inch listed Type PL pellet vent
pipe, designed for use with pellet stoves. This stove may be connected to an existing factory-
built chimney using pellet vent pipe as a connector, and a 3-4", 3-6", or 3-8" PELLET VENT to
CHIMNEY ADAPTERS. Follow the pellet vent pipe manufacture's instructions for the
installation of the vent pipe being used. (See "Existing Vertical Installation" on page 10).
As you plan your installation, consider the following:
-
The stove should be placed as central in the home as possible. Consider safety,
convenience, traffic flow and the fact that the stove will need a venting system.
-
Before drilling or cutting holes, select the location of the appliance. Determine where the
ceiling rafters, wall studs or floor joists are located before making any large holes as the
appliance may have to be moved.
-
Care must be taken to maintain minimum clearances to combustibles as per local building
codes, fire codes, and the safety listing tag on the inside hopper lid.
-
An outside air source must be connected to the stove and can be brought in through the
sidewall or vented crawl space. Flexible or rigid pipe should be used and will connect to
the adaptor on the back of the stove. (See air inlet location under the CLEARANCE
section of this manual)
DO NOT CONNECT THIS STOVE TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPIANCE.
DO NOT USE SINGLE WALL PIPE FOR ANY INSTALLATION.
DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.
THIS EXHAUST SYSTEM IS PRESSURIZED.
Electrical power is 120-60hz. The stove is provided with a six foot grounded electrical cord, and
should be connected to a standard 3 prong 120 volt, 60hz electrical outlet. Do not route the cord
in front of, or under the stove.
NOTE: A MAJOR CAUSE OF VENT RELATED FIRES IS FAILURE TO MAINTAIN
REQUIRED CLEARANCES (AIR SPACES) TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL.
PLEASE FOLLOW THE VENT PIPE MANUFACTURERS INSTRUCTIONS AND
LOCAL BUILDING CODES FOR THE PROPER CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
REQURED FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THE VENT PIPE BEING USED.
