INSTALLATION
reached. With this installation you have to be aware
of the snowdrift line, dead grass, and leaves. We
recommend a 3ft (0.91m) minimum vertical rise on
the inside or outside of the house. The "through the
wall" installation is the least expensive and simplest
installation. Never terminate the end vent under a
deck, in an alcove, under a window, or between two
windows. We recommend Simpson Dura-Vent® or
Metal-Fab® kits.
THROUGH THE ROOF/CEILING
INSTALLATION
• When venting the heater through the ceiling, the
pipe is connected the same as through the wall,
except the clean-out tee is always on the inside
of the house, and a 3" (76 mm) adapter is added
before the clean-out tee.
• You must use the proper ceiling support
flanges and roof flashing (supplied by the pipe
manufacturer; follow the pipe manufacturer's
directions). It is important to note that if your
vertical run of pipe is more than 12ft (3.7m), the
pellet vent pipe size should be increased to 4" (102
mm) in diameter.
• Do not exceed more than 4ft (1.22m) of pipe on a
horizontal run and use as few elbows as possible. If
an offset is required, it is better to install 45-degree
elbows rather than 90-degree elbows.
