SPECIAL MOBILE HOME REQUIREMENTS
WARNING! - Do not install in a sleeping room
CAUTION! - The structural integrity of the mobile home floor, wall, and ceiling/roof must be maintained.
In addition to the previously detailed installation requirements, mobile home installations must meet the following
requirements:
• The space heater is to be connected to a factory-built chimney conforming to CAN/ULC-S629, Standard for
650°C Factory-Built Chimneys.
• The heater must be permanently attached to the floor. There are two holes in the pedestal base, use 3/8"
bolts through the floor.
• The heater must be electrically grounded to the steel chassis of the mobile home with 8 GA copper wire
using a serrated or star washer to penetrate paint or protective coating to ensure grounding.
• When moving your mobile home, all exterior venting must be removed while the mobile home is being
relocated. After relocation, all venting must be reinstalled and securely fastened.
• Outside Air is mandatory for mobile home installation. See your dealer for purchasing.
• Check with your local building officials as other codes may apply.
• Only use the specified components listed in this manual for this unit. The use of components that are not
meant for this unit can cause unsafe conditions.
COMBUSTION AIR ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance requires a source of combustion air. If your home is of tight construction or has negative pressure
problems, you will need an outside source of air. Below is a list of possible indicators that a source of outside
combustion air may be required.
MOBILE HOME INSTALLATIONS - REQUIRED
• Your stove does not draw steadily, smoke rollout occurs, wood burns poorly, or back-drafts occur whether or
not there is combustion present.
• Existing fuel-fired equipment in the house, such as fireplaces or other heating appliances, smell, do
not operate properly, suffer smoke roll-out when opened, or back-drafts occur whether or not there is
combustion present.
• Opening a window slightly on a calm (windless) day alleviates any of the above symptoms.
• The house is equipped with a well-sealed vapor barrier and tight fitting windows and/or has any powered
devices that exhaust house air.
• There is excessive condensation on windows in the winter.
• A ventilation system is installed in the house.
If an outside air intake is required, you may purchase a standard 4" Dryer Vent kit from your local hardware
supply store and install it on the rear of the appliance.
When using a Dryer venting kit, the outlet cover must be of a design that DOES NOT close by means of a flap
or trap door. You must purchase a style that allows a continuous in-flow of air and that has a rodent screen. This
adapter can be purchased from your dealer.
4FAK INSTALLATION
Follow the manufacturer's installation instructions for attaching the dryer vent kit to the home. Then, attach it to
the adapter on the combustion air inlet on the back of the pedestal as shown.
