INSTALLATION VENTING REQUIREMENTS Install vent at clearances specified by the vent manufacturer. Do not connect the pellet vent to a vent serving any other appliance or stove. Do not install a flue damper in the exhaust venting system of this unit. The following installation guidelines must be followed to ensure conformity with both the safety listing of this stove and to local building codes.
INSTALLATION VENT TERMINATION CLEARANCES: Minimum 4-foot (1.22m) clearance below or beside any door or window that opens. Minimum 1-foot (0.3m) clearance above any door or window that opens. Minimum 3-foot (0.91m) clearance from any adjacent building. Minimum 7-foot (2.13m) clearance from any grade when adjacent to public walkways. Minimum 2-foot (0.61m) clearance above any grass, plants, or other combustible materials.
INSTALLATION THROUGH THE WALL INSTALLATION ( RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION) Canadian installations must conform to CAN/CSA-B365. To vent the unit through the wall, connect the pipe adapter to the exhaust motor adapter. If the exhaust adapter is at least 18 in.(457mm) above ground level, a straight section of pellet vent pipe can be used through the wall.
INSTALLATION OUTSIDE AIR SUPPLY (optional, unless installing in a mobile home) Adequate ventilation air is required to operate this heater. During operation, the heater draws air for combustion which can be assisted by the installation of outside combustion air inlets. However, certain weather conditions such as icing or use of kitchen exhaust fans may impact and reduce the effectiveness of vents.
Page 13
INSTALLATION PREPARATION Factory packaging must be removed, and some minor assembly work is required prior to installation. Access to the rear of the stove is necessary. The circuit board/control panel must be unpacked and installed in the side fl ashing on the insert or side panel on the freestanding.
INSTALLATION COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY If outdoor combustion air is supplied the heater must be attached to the structure. For a mobile home installation the stove must be connected to an outside source of combustion air. A 2” inside diameter metallic pipe, either fl exible or rigid, may be attached to the inlet at the stove’s rear. A rodent guard (minimum ¼” wire mesh)/ wind hood must be used at the terminus.
