PELLET VENT INSTALLATION
The installation must include a clean-out tee to enable collection of fly ash and to permit periodic cleaning of the
exhaust system. 90-degree elbows accumulate fly ash and soot thereby reducing exhaust flow and performance
of the stove. Each elbow or tee reduces draft potential by 30% to 50%. All joints in the vent system must be
fastened by at least 3 screws, and all joints must be sealed with Hi-Temp RTV silicone sealant to be airtight. The
area where the vent pipe penetrates to the exterior of the home must be sealed with silicone or other means to
maintain the vapor barrier between the exterior and the interior of the home. Vent surfaces can get hot enough
to cause burns if touched by children. Non-combustible shielding or guards may be required.
PELLET VENT TERMINATION
Do not terminate the vent in an enclosed or semi-enclosed area, such as; carport, garage, attic, crawl space,
under a sun deck or porch, narrow walkway, or any other location that can build up a concentration of fumes.
Termination in one of these areas can also lead to unpredictable pressure situations with the appliance, and
could result in improper performance and/or malfunction The termination must exhaust above the outside air
inlet elevation. The termination must not be located where it will become plugged by snow or other materials. Do
not terminate the venting into an existing steel or masonry chimney.
