Page 16: Outside Air
The outside air connection will supply the demands of the pellet appliance, but consideration must be given to the total house demand. House demand may consume some air needed for the stove, especially during a power failure. It may be necessary to add additional ventilation to the space in which the pellet appliance is located. Consult with your local HVAC professional to determine the ventilation demands for your house. Figure 4.12 To install outside air use 2 3/8" I.D. non-combustible flex pipe Figure 4.13. There is a break-away hole on the rear panel of the P43 stove which must be removed before connecting the flex pipe. Figure 4.12. The pipe should be run outside and Flex pipe part# terminate to the side or below the vent pipe outlet so the flue 1-00-08543 outlet is more than 12" from the inlet cover.

Page 18: Avoiding Smoke & Odors
The air intake is best located on the same exterior wall as the exhaust vent outlet and located lower on the wall than the exhaust vent outlet. The outside air supply kit can supply most of the demands of the pellet appliance, but consideration must be given to the total house demand. House demand may consume the air needed for the appliance. It may be necessary to add additional ventilation to the space in which the pellet appliance is located. Consult with your local HVAC professional to determine the ventilation demands for your house. Vent Pipe Be sure to use approved pellet vent pipe wall and ceiling pass- through fittings to go through combustible walls and ceilings. Be sure to use a starting collar to attach the venting system to the stove. The starting collar must be secured to the flue stub with at least three screws, and sealed with high temp silicone caulking. 4" stainless steel flex vent piping is only allowed for use in masonry fireplaces and chimneys or factory built woodburning fireplaces with class A metal chimneys. Pellet venting pipe (also known as Type L vent) is constructed of two layers with air space between the layers. This air space acts as an insulator and reduces the outside surface temperature to allow a clearance to combustibles of only 3 inches. The sections of pipe lock together to form an air tight seal in most cases; however, in some cases a perfect seal is not achieved. For this reason and the fact that the P43 operates with a positive vent pressure, we specify that the joints also be sealed with silicone. Where passing through an exterior wall or roof, be sure to use the appropriate pass-through device providing an adequate vapor barrier. Venting manufacturers generally provide these pas-through devices. Harman® • P43 Installation Manual_R21 • 2008 -___ • 08/13 3-90-04301i... -
