INSTALLATION DETAILS
Location of the Pellet Fire
When selecting a location for your new pellet fire consider the following:
1. Clearance to combustibles. The pellet fire must be installed with the proper clearances to combustibles to
protect against the risk of fire.
2. Sufficient room to service the unit and size of the appliance. Allow yourself enough room to be able to service
the pellet fire. Open the side panels and remove the back panel to see how much room you will need to access
the sides and the back comfortably. When installing the pellet fire, please keep in mind that you will need to
clean the pellet vent system annually. If the pellet fire must be placed in a tight area, make sure to conform to
the proper clearances to combustible materials and make sure you have enough room to disconnect the vent
system for servicing. Also, these appliances are heavy and may be awkward to move in order to service. The
free-standing pellet fire weighs 92 kg and the insert pellet fire weighs 70 kg.
3. Access for outside combustion air if required.
4. Power within 1.5m. The power cord is only 1.5m long. Make sure that your outlet is within 1.5m of the pellet fire.
5. Access for exhaust venting.
6. The pellet fire must not be located immediately below a socket-outlet.
