Thermostat Location; Locating Your Appliance & Flue - Heatilator ECO-NZ-PS35 Owner's Manual

• Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system
• Upper level air leaks such as:
• Recessed lighting
• Attic hatch
• Duct leaks
To minimize the effects of negative air pressure:
• Install the outside air kit with the intake facing prevailing
winds during the heating season
• Ensure adequate outdoor air for all combustion
appliances and exhaust equipment
• Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are
not located in the immediate vicinity of the appliance
• Avoid installing the appliance near doors, walkways or
small isolated spaces
• Recessed lighting should be a "sealed can" design
• Attic hatches weather stripped or sealed
• Attic mounted duct work and air handler joints and
seams taped or sealed structures, uneven roof lines
and other obstructions.
• Minimize the use of chimney offsets.
• Consider the appliance location relative to floor and
ceiling and attic joists.
• Take into consideration the termination requirements
on page 28 and page 29.
D. Thermostat Location
1. A low voltage thermostat can be installed to
operate this pellet fire. You may use the optional
wall mount thermostat kit ("Figure 28") or purchase
a programmable thermostat, timer or remote
control. The optional wall mount thermostat is
equipped with an adjustable heat anticipator. The
current rating is .05 amps. The anticipator needs to
be adjusted to the lowest setting available.
2. When mounting a thermostat on a wall, be sure
to follow your thermostat installation instructions
carefully.
NOTE: Thermostat must be mounted level for accurate
readings. The thermostat should be mounted on an inside
wall, not directly in line with the appliance's convection air
and away from drafts.
NOTE: Thermostats are not recommended for old drafty
poorly insulted house as the fire may start and stop often

increasing cleaning schedules, increase power consumption
and potentially reducing component life
3. There is a 4 screw terminal block located on the
back lower left corner of the stove directly above
the power cord inlet. The centre 2 screws are for
the thermostat wires. "Figure 29". closing the
terminals will activate the fire

E. Locating Your Appliance & Flue
Location of the appliance and flue will affect performance.
• It is recommended that you install through the warm
airspace enclosed by the building envelope. This helps
to produce more draft, especially during lighting and
die-down of the fire.
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes
the affects of wind loading.
• Locate termination cap away from trees, adjacent
structures, uneven roof lines and other obstructions.
• Minimize the use of chimney offsets.
• Consider the appliance location relative to floor and ceiling
and attic joists.
• Take into consideration the termination requirements on
page 28 and page 29.
