Getting Started
A. Design and Installation Considerations
Before
installing, determine the following:
•
Type of chimney connector to be used
-
Single wall, 6 inch (152mm) diameter, stainless
steel, or
-
Double wall, 6 inch (152mm) diameter, stainless
steel
•
Consult page 28 for clearances to combustibles
•
Power outlet located close by for optional blower
Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent appliances
successfully. When a appliance is drafting successfully, all
combustion byproducts are exiting the home through the
chimney.
Considerations for successful draft include:
• Preventing negative pressure
•
Location of appliance and chimney
To be sure that your appliance burns properly:
•
During a low burn, the chimney draft (static pressure)
should be approximately -.04 inch water column (W.C.)
•
During a high burn the chimney draft should be
approximately -.10 inch (W.C.)
•
Measure the W.C at 6 inches (152mm) above the top
of the appliance after one hour of operation at each
burn setting.
B. Draft
Check building codes prior to installation.
•
Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state
and national codes and regulations.
•
Consult insurance carrier, local building, fire officials
or authorities having jurisdiction about restrictions,
installation inspection, and permits.
CAUTION
WARNING
Asphyxiation Risk.
•
Do NOT connect this appliance to a
chimney flue servicing another appliance.
•
Do NOT connect to any air distribution duct
or system.
May allow flue gases to enter the house.
NOTICE:
Hearth & Home Technologies assumes no
responsibility for the improper performance of
the appliance system caused by:
•
Inadequate draft due to environmental conditions
• Down drafts
• Tight sealing construction of the structure
•
Mechanical exhausting devices
•
Over drafting caused by excessive chimney heights
•
Ideal performance is with height of chimney between
14-16 feet (4.26-4.88m) measured from the base of
the appliance.
