2. Place a non-combustible hearth pad where necessary.
3. Place the unit on the hearth pad (if installed on a combustible
surface) and space the unit in a manner so when the pellet
vent is installed vertically, it will be 3” (7.5 cm) away from a
combustible wall.
4. Install the tee with clean out.
5. Install the pellet vent upward from there. When you reach
the ceiling, make sure that the vent goes through the ceiling
fire stop. Maintain a 3” (7.5 cm) distance to combustibles and
keep attic insulation away from the vent pipe. Maintain an
effective vapor barrier.
6. Finally, extend the pellet vent to go through the roof flashing.
7. Ensure that the rain cap is approximately 24” (600 mm)
above the roof.

brackets to keep the vent straight and secure.

roof.
