Determining where to install your new pellet stove heater.
To get the most efficient use of re-circulated heat, you
should consider a room that is centrally located within
your home. Choose a room that is large and open. It is
Extremely Important to maintain proper clearances from
any combustible surfaces or materials in the room where
your heater will be located. You can find proper clearance
measurements in this manual and on the rating label of
your pellet stove. The pellet stove can be vented through an
exterior wall or into an existing masonry or metal chimney
if "PL" vent pipe is used throughout existing chimney.
Venting can pass through the ceiling and roof if approved
pipe is used. Where passage through a wall, or partition of
combustible construction is desired, the installation must
conform to CAN/CSA-B365.

A VENTILATED CRAWL SPACE.

HORIZONTAL EXHAUST VENT INSTALLATION
1. Locate your pellet stove in a location which meets the
requirements of this manual, but in an area where it
does not interfere with the house framing, wiring, etc.
2. Install a non-combustible hearth pad underneath the
pellet stove. This pad should extend at least 6" (152
mm) in front of the unit.
3. Place the pellet stove approximately 15" (381 mm)
away from the interior wall.
4. Locate the center of the exhaust pipe of your unit. This
point should then be extended to the interior wall of
your house. Once you have located the center point,
on the interior wall, cut a 7" (175 mm) diameter hole
through the wall.
5. The next step is to install the wall thimble, refer to the
instructions which come with the wall thimble for this
step.
6. Install the appropriate length of exhaust vent pipe
into the wall thimble. See steps 11 and 12 when
determining the correct length of exhaust vent to use.
7. Outside Fresh Air is Mandatory when installing this
pellet stove room heater in airtight homes and mobile
home / transportable buildings. Be sure that the
outside air vent has an approved cap on it to prevent
rodents from entering. Be sure to install in location
that won't become blocked with snow, etc.
