Freestanding Installations - Golden Eagle ECONOMY SERIES 5040 Owner's Manual

Equivalent Vent Length (EVL)
The longer the run of pipe in your installation, the more re-
striction there is in the system. Therefore, larger diameter pipe
should be used.
• Use 4" pipe if you have more than 15 feet of equivalent
vent length.
• Horizontal runs shall not exceed 10 feet of EVL.
• It is recommended that vertical runs be a minimum of 8
feet.
• To calculate EVL, use the following conversions:
90º elbow or "T" = 5 equivalent feet
45º elbow = 3 equivalent feet
Horizontal Pipe Run = 1 equivalent foot per actual foot
Vertical Pipe Run = 0.5 equivalent foot per actual foot
NOTE: At altitudes above 3,000 feet, we suggest the use of
4" diameter vent at an EVL of 7 feet or more.

FREESTANDING INSTALLATIONS

A. ASSEMBLING PEDESTAL OR LEG SET
If using a pedestal, follow the instructions inside the US Stove
5040 Pedestal Set Part # A-22-P (refer to fi gure 8).
If using cast legs, follow the instructions inside the US Stove
5040 Leg Set Part # A-CGL-22 or # A-CL-22.
Legs are installed by using the four bolts provided in the kit
into the four holes under the stove at each corner, thread on
nuts from the top and tighten. Make sure to save the hole
plugs.
NOTE: If converting from legs to pedestal the hole plugs
must be installed in the unused holes.
B. HORIZONTALLY THROUGH WALL (refer to Figure 9)
NOTE: Follow PL-Vent chimney manufacturer's instructions.
1. Position stove, adhering to clearances shown in Figures
1 & 2.
2. Locate position of hole in wall; directly behind stove
exhaust
vent (refer to fi gure 5).
3. Always maintain 3" clearance from combustible materials.
4. Install PL-Vent wall thimble per PL-Vent manufactur-
er's instructions.
5. Attach enough piping to penetrate and extend at least 6"
beyond exterior walls. An 8-foot vertical pipe run is sug-
gested where possible to reduce the possibility of smoke
spillage in the event of a loss of negative pressure.
6. Attach cap and seal outside wall thimbles with non-
hardening waterproof mastic.
7. Termination should not be located so that hot exhaust
gases can ignite trees, shrubs, or grasses or be a hazard
to children. Exhaust gases can reach temperatures of
500ºF and cause serious burns if touched.

air inlet located within 10 feet; b) not less than 4 feet below
or horizontally from, or one foot above, any door, window or
gravity air inlet into any building; c) not less than two feet from
an adjacent building and not less than 7 feet above grade
when located adjacent to a public walkway. Mobile home in-
stallations must use a spark arrester.
