MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION
Once you have properly marked the position
of your unit and the fl oor protection as outlined
in the Residential Installation items #1 through
#8, a supply of fresh air has to be supplied to
your unit.
Place your unit in position and secure it to the
fl oor using four lag bolts 1/4" through the four
holes inside the legs. It is important to maintain
the structural integrity of the Mobile Home fl oor,
walls and roof when installing your unit.
For Mobile Home units installed in the U.S. the
unit must be grounded using a #8 ground wire
with approved termination and star washer.
In addition to standard installation instructions
the following requirements are mandatory for
installation in a mobile home.
1)
The stove must be permanently bolted to
the fl oor of the Mobile Home using the fl oor
screws provided.
2)
The stove must have a permanent outside
air source for combustion.
3)
The stove must be electrically grounded to
the steel chassis of the Mobile Home.
4)
A listed double-wall connector chimney
system, roof thimble, spark arrestor and
roof fl ashing kit suitable for use in Mobile
Homes must be used.
5)
If the chimney exits the Mobile Home at a
location other than through the roof, and exits
at a point 7ft. (2130mm) or less above the
ground level on which the Mobile Home is
positioned a guard or method of enclosing
the chimney shall be fi tted at the point of
exit for a height up to 7ft. (2130mm).
6)
The chimney shall be attached directly to
the room heater and shall extend at least
3 ft. (914mm) above the part of the roof
through which it passes. The top of the
chimney should project at least 2ft. (610mm)
above the highest elevation of any part of
the Mobile Home within 10 ft. (3048mm) of
the chimney.
7)
The chimney system shall comply with Local
Requirements.
8)
Any openings in a chimney guard where
required must not permit the entrance of
3/4" (19mm) diameter rod.
9) CAUTION: THE STRUCTURAL INTEG-
RITY OF THE MOBILE HOME ROOF,
FLOOR, WALLS AND CEILING MUST BE
MAINTAINED.
10)
Check any other local building code as other
local codes may apply.
11)
WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEP-
ING ROOM OF A MOBILE HOME.
12)
Use silicone to create an effective vapour
barrier at the location where the chimney or
other component penetrates to the exterior
of the structure.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: At no time use unlabelled
parts, or substitute parts made for another
chimney system.
Install as per chimney manufacturer's
installation instructions.
WARNING: Do not obstruct free air supply
to the air inlet duct located at the back of
the stove.
NOTE: Listed factory built chimney con-
nectors including elbows are acceptable
for use in Mobile Home Installations.
If desired, the air for combustion may be drawn
directly from the outside of the house, as detailed
below. It is not obligatory to do this, but it may
help combustion in small or poorly ventilated
house.
Connect a 4" (100 mm) diameter stainless steel,
or other non-combustible corrosion resistant
material, to the O.S.A hook-up box. In order to do
this the O.S.A hook-up box must be connected to
the base using 1/2" (12 mm) hex head bolts.
Run the pipe (up to 54" (1372 mm) long) to the
outside avoiding sharp bends and joints within
cavity walls. Turn the end down and fi t corrosion
resistant mesh to prevent the entry of leaves
and rodents. Seal the penetration of the outside
wall with silicon.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE IN CON-
JUNCTION WITH ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION
DUCTWORK UNLESS SPECIFICALLY AP-
PROVED FOR SUCH INSTALLATIONS.
