Recommended Height For Woodstove Flue; Mobile Home Installation - Masport F2101 Owners & Installation Manual

INSTALLATION
Note: Increasing the chimney height above
this minimum level will sometimes help
your unit to "breathe" better by allowing a
greater draft to be created. This greater
draft can decrease problems such as, diffi-
cult start-ups, backsmoking when door is
open, and dirty glass. It might be sufficient
to initially try with the minimum required
height, and then if problems do arise add
additional height at a later date.
4) Slide the roof flashing over your chimney
and seal the flashing to the roof with roof-
ing compound. Secure the flashing to your
roof with nails or screws.
5) Place the storm collar over the flashing,
sealing the joints with a silicone caulking.
6) Fasten the raincap with spark screens (if
required) to the top of your chimney.
7) For optimum efficiency when installing into
a masonry chimney, size accordingly, i.e.
the 6"(150mm) flue dia. is 28.28 sq.in (720
sq.mm).
8) To complete your chimney installation, in-
stall the double wall connector pipe from
the stove's flue collar to the chimney sup-
port device.
9) If you are using a horizontal connector, the
chimney connector should be as high as
possible while still maintaining the
18"(460mm) minimum distance from the
horizontal connector to the ceiling.
10) NOTE: Residential Close Clearance and
Alcove installations require a listed double
wall connector from the stove collar to the
ceiling level.
The diagrams below illustrate one way to in-
stall your unit into a standard ceiling or with a
horizontal connector. Check with your dealer or
installer for information on other options availa-
ble to you.

WOODSTOVE FLUE
Simple rules on draft. See Table 1.
1) At sea level minimum height is 3.7m
straight.
2) Add the following vertical height to com-
pensate for:
45 deg. elbow = 0.305m
90 deg. elbow = 0.610m
"T" = 0.915m
Each meter of horizontal run = 2.0m
Example: a)
1.5m of horizontal run
one "T"
Total Addition (at sea level) = 3.9m

MOBILE HOME
INSTALLATION
Once you have properly marked the position of
your unit and the floor protection as outlined in
the Residential Installation items #1 through
#8, a supply of fresh air has to be supplied to
your unit. Cut a minimum 3 inch diameter hole
through your floor protector and the floor di-
rectly under your pedestal base to the outside.
Use 3" (76mm) duct pipe with a mesh grill to
pipe fresh air into the pedestal area. Block off
the hole in the back of the pedestal with the
square plate and the two 1/2" (13mm) screws
provided.
Place your unit in position and secure it to the
floor using two lag bolts 3/8" x 3-1/2" (9.5mm
x 89mm) through the two holes inside the
pedestal base. It is important to maintain the
structural integrity of the Mobile Home floor,
walls and roof when installing your unit.
