6. MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION
NOTICE
For mobile home installation, it is mandatory to
connect the stove to an outside combustion air
source. Insulated pipe should never exceed 10
feet.
When installed in a mobile home, the stove must be
anchored to the floor with two screws. Use the two
anchoring holes located on each side of the pedes-
tal, as shown on the right figure.
For use in a mobile home in Canada, this pellet
stove must be connected to a vent system certified
according to the standard or ULC/ORD-C441 CAN/
ULC-S609. A vent system meeting the requirements
of ULC S629M can also be used.
For use in a manufactured home in the United States,
this pellet stove must be connected to a venting sys-
tem that meets the requirements of UL 641 standard.
A vent system that meets the requirements of UL 103
standard may also be used.
7. INSTALLING A THERMOSTAT
Using a thermostat will help you maintain a constant
temperature throughout the house. A low voltage
thermostat (24 volts) is required. A fixed wall mount
or hand held model can be used.
NOTICE
Thermostat manufacturer’s instructions always
override the information published in the following
section.
7.1 THERMOSTAT LOCATION
Location of the thermostat is very important to obtain
comfort and efficiency from your stove.
Locate the thermostat 4 to 5 feet above the floor in
accordance with applicable building codes.
Install the thermostat in a location that provides
good airflow characteristics and avoid areas behind
doors, near corners, air vents, direct sunlight or heat
generating devices.
If the thermostat is installed in the same room as the
stove, it should also be located at least 15 to 20 feet
from the stove. To prevent cycling, you should avoid
installing the thermostat on a poorly insulated outside
wall or directly in front of the stove.

B Minimum 15'
NOTICE
Installing the thermostat in front of the stove or
in front of a window will tend to make the stove
cycle too often and wear components prematurely.
See operation’s manual for more details on how to
operate the stove with the proper pilot mode.
