Venting Introduction - England's Stove Works 55-SHPCB120 Installation & Operation Manual

Venting Introduction
This pellet stove operates on a negative draft system, which pulls combustion air through the
burn pot and pushes the exhaust air through the vent pipe and out of the building. This unit must be
installed in accordance with the following detailed descriptions of venting techniques; not installing
the stove in accordance with the details listed here can result in poor stove performance, property
damage, bodily injury or death. England's Stove Works is not responsible for any damage incurred
due to a poor or unsafe installation.
If questions arise pertaining to the safe installation of the stove, our Technical Support line
(800‐245‐6489) is available. Contact your local code official to be certain your installation meets local
and national fire codes and if you're uncertain about how to safely install the stove, we strongly
recommend contacting a local NFI certified installer to perform the installation.
Venting Guidelines
 WARNING ‐ INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT MANUFACTURER.
 ALWAYS install vent pipe in strict adherence with the instructions and clearances included with
your venting system.
 DO NOT connect this pellet stove to a chimney flue which also serves another appliance.
 DO NOT install a flue pipe damper or any other restrictive device in the exhaust venting system
of this unit.
 USE an approved wall thimble when passing through a wall and a ceiling support/fire stop
when passing through a ceiling.
 ONLY use 3.0" or 4.0" Type L or Type PL pipe approved for pellet stove venting; DO NOT use
galvanized or B‐Vent pipe.
 SEAL each joint of pellet vent with high temperature silicone (Part # AC‐RTV3) to prevent
smoke spillage into the home.
 AVOID excessive horizontal runs and elbows, as both will reduce the draft of the venting
system and will result in poor stove performance.
 INCLUDE as much vertical pipe as possible to prevent smoke from the unit from entering your
home in the event of a power outage.
 INSPECT your venting system often, to be certain it is clear of fly‐ash and other restrictions.
 CLEAN the venting system as detailed in the maintenance section of this manual.
