Installation Environment; Capacity Load Of The Floor - Piazzetta P963 Instructions For Installation, Use And Maintenance Manual

1.4 INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT

Contact local building authority before installation to determine if a
permit and/or inspection is required.
When locating your appliance, consider the building structure to ensure
the vent will not interfere with any ceiling joists, roof rafters, wall
studs, water pipes or electrical wiring. It may be easier to relocate the
appliance than to rework the building structure.
The layout of your house and the location of the pellet stove will
determine how effective it is at heating the intended area.
Pellet stoves use mainly air circulation to disperse their heat, therefore
a central location works best.
Consider the following things when selecting a location:
- use of an existing chimney
- location of vent termination
- aesthetic considerations
- interference with house framing, plumbing and wiring
- floor protection
- room traffic patterns
- proximity to combustibles
- location of air for combustion
- electrical outlet
- pellet fuel storage
