External combustion air source
In conventional designed house, natural ventilation is enough
to operate the wood stove.
In some new energy saving house, natural ventilation is not
enough to good operation of your stove. To avoid reverse
circulation of smoke caused by negative pressure when turning
on some fan on like: Bathroom fan, Cooking fan or a drying
machine. Open slightly a window in the same room than the
appliance to compensate the depressurisation,
A mobile home on a foundation is considered like a
conventional house.
Exterior Air Intake pipe
This appliance is certified for the mobile home installation. An
external air intake is need.
We recommend to use a 4 inches (10.7 cm) aluminum flexible
pipe, a damper and a caped air inlet equipped with grate
Other pipe material must be complied with ULC-S110 norms or
UL-181 Class1 norms, equipped with thermal resistant isolation
and must be corrosion resistant
The stove must be fix to the structure when an exterior air
intake is installed.
Installation of Air Intake Pipe
1) To install the exterior air intake pipe, find the hole
under the stove back and fold the 3 tabs outside the
Intake box. Insert the pipe into the hole and screw the
pipe using the 3 holes in the tabs. Put a generous
layer of high temperature latex caulking onto the joint
to ensure the pipe is sealed.
2) Cut the exterior wall and install Air Inlet kit following
the manufacturer installation instructions. Be sure to
seal it correctly to preserve the vapour barrier of your
house.
3) Install a small rigid section with a damper onto the
interior end of the Air Inlet (The damper is to reduce
the cold air circulation into the stove when it is not in
service.)
4) Plug the flexible air inlet pipe onto the damper section
and seal it.
5) Put a thermal resistant isolation onto the pipe if the
pipe is not isolated.
Air Inlet Obstruction
If the stove extinguish after closing is door, it’s possible than
the air inlet is obstruct by something.
After a long unused period, insects or animals can build a nest
into the air inlet.
In winter, after a storm, snow can accumulate over the air inlet
and obstruct it.
Before warming season, always inspect air inlet pipe to be sure
nothing is obstructed the outside air inlet.
Exterior inlet with grate
Adjustable Collar
4 inches rigid or flex pipe
Stainless steel tubes replacement
Although the tubes are in stainless steel. With extreme
temperature and conditions the tubes are eventually corroding
and perforating by normal deterioration. They must be replaced
by a new one to ensure performance of your stove.
Stainless steel tubes Installation
Tree type of tubes is used into the stove. Two of this are a
single holes perforation (1) and are in the back of heat
chamber.
The 3th tube from back have a wider one side perforated (2).
The front heat chamber is covered by the double sided
perforated (3).
