Determining where to install your new pellet stove heater.
To get the most ecient 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 nd 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.
WARNING:
• DO NOT OBTAIN COMBUSTION AIR FROM THE
ATTIC, GARAGE OR ANY OTHER UNVENTILATED
AREA. YOU MAY OBTAIN COMBUSTION AIR FROM
A VENTILATED CRAWL SPACE.
• DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST
VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.
• DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY
FLUE SERVING ANOTHER HEATER, FURNACE OR
APPLIANCE.
• INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE

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 homes. 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.
8. Connect the exhaust vent pipe to the exhaust outlet of
your pellet stove.
9. Secure all vent joint connections with 3 screws.
Seal the exhaust vent joint connections with high
temperature silicone sealant.
10. Push the unit straight back to the interior wall,
being sure to maintain the minimum clearances to
combustibles 2” (51 mm) to the back of the unit. Seal
the annular space of the wall thimble and around the
vent pipe with high temperature silicone sealant.
11. The exhaust vent pipe must extend at least 12” (300
mm) out past the exterior wall. Seal the annular space
of the wall thimble and around the vent pipe with high
temperature silicone sealant.
12. Install an approved horizontal termination cap or if
necessary install a 90° elbow and appropriate length
of vertical venting. An approved vertical vent cap is
recommended.
THROUGH THE WALL INSTALLATION
(RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION)
Canadian installations must conform to CAN/CSA-B365.
To vent the unit through the wall, connect the pipe adapter
to the exhaust motor adapter. If the exhaust adapter
is at least 18” (457 mm) above ground level, a straight
section of pellet vent pipe can be used through the wall.
