Figure 1 : CORNER INSTALLATION Figure 3 : WALL INSTALLATION • IMPORTANT: It is essential to ensure that the room were the stove is located is sufficiently ventilated to provide an adequate air supply. • It is possible that if your home is well insulated, that you will have to install an outside fresh air intake.
• Before the hook up of the stove, check if the chimney is in good condition and that the quality of the flue will allow a sufficient draught. For a good combustion, refer to the technical data of the stove to know the minimum draught required.
• The gases are vented from he back of the unit. The female part of the black pipe connector has to be installed toward the flue connector of the stove. Secure all connections with the (3) self taping screws, with 120 distance between each of them.
• Now that the stove is in place and properly hooked up to the chimney, you have to adjust the level on the burner. • Put the level in the middle of the burner paralleled to the door. (Figure 9A). Screw or unscrew the adjustable legs to level the burner with a 7/16"...
• Use only caper piping to connect tank to stove. • Make sure that there is a small slope on the connection from the tank toward the stove. • A 3" down slope is needed on the tank itself, from the outlet towards the other end of the tank.
• Your stove operated with natural draught, created by the ascension of combustion gases in the chimney. This movement creates a siphon effect in the stove and forces ambient air to go in the burner by the holes in its surround. These orifices let air in for combustion.
