EXHAUST VENTING
VENTING: APPROVED MATERIALS
The stove requires a venting system, approved for pellet stoves by a certified testing lab.
Approved pellet stove venting materials are: 1) PL vent, a double wall vent with a stainless steel
liner; and 2) Single wall rigid or flexible stainless steel pipe. PL Vent and Single wall vent is
available through manufacturers such as: Simpson DuraVent, Energy Vent LTD, James A. Ryder
and Selkirk Metalbestos and is carried by many local pellet stove dealers. In this manual
approved venting will be referred to a “PL vent” or “Single wall vent”. All single wall vent
adaptors must be stainless steel.
NOTE: TYPE “B” GAS VENT MUST NOT BE USED IN ANY PELLET STOVE
INSTALLATION.
Examples of venting system components follow:
High temperature ceramic roping reduces potential fly ash escaping through joints.
Stainless steel inner liners resist corrosive flue gas damage to the system..
Flex pipe is 430 stainless steel, 4 ply construction with a total thickness of approx. .07 inches.
