Mobile Home Installation, Approved for USA Installation ONLY!
You must use a Quadra-Fire Outside Air Kit Part #:
OAK-ACC
1. An outside air inlet must be provided for combustion and
must remain clear of leaves, debris, ice and/or snow. It
must be unrestricted while unit is in use to prevent room
air starvation which can cause smoke spillage and an
inability to maintain a fire. Smoke spillage can also set
off smoke alarms.
2. Unit must be secured to the mobile home structure at
two attachment points. Remove bolts from each side of
insert and use plumbers tape to secure to structure (a
washer may be required). Re-install bolts.
3. Unit must be grounded with #8 solid copper grounding
wire or equivalent and terminated at each end with
N.E.C. approved grounding device.
4. The factory-built fireplace must meet (UM) 84-HUD
requirements for outside combustion air supply to
the fireplace fire chamber and the chimney must be
listed to UL103 HT or a listed UL-1777 full length six
inch (152mm) diameter liner must be used. It must be
equipped with a spark arrestor cap and the outside air
must be installed on the insert.
5. Refer to page 10 of this manual for clearance to
combustibles and floor protections requirements. All
clearances must be followed precisely.
6. Use silicone to create an effective vapor barrier at
the location were the chimney or other component
penetrates to the exterior of the structure.
7. Follow the chimney
manufacturer's instructions when installing the flue
system for use in a mobile home.
8. Burn wood only. Other types of fuels may generate
poisonous gases (e.g., carbon monoxide).
9. If unit burns poorly while an exhaust blower is on in
home, (i.e., range hood), increase combustion air.
10. Installation shall be in accordance with the
Manufacturers Home & Safety Standard (HUD) CFR
3280, Part 24.
NOTICE: Offsets from the vertical, not exceeding 45°, are
allowed per Section 905(a) of the Uniform Mechanical
Code (UMC). Offsets greater than 45° are considered
horizontal and are also allowed, providing the horizontal
run does not exceed 75% of the vertical height of the
vent. Construction, clearance and termination must be
in compliance with the UMC Table 9C. This installation
must also comply with NFPA 211.
NOTICE: Top sections of chimney must be removable
to allow maximum clearance of 13.5 feet (411cm) from
