INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT! This unit is equipped with a negative draft system that pulls air through the burn pot and pushes
the exhaust out of the dwelling. If this unit is connected to a flue system other than the way explained in this
manual, it will not function properly.
MAXIMUM VENTING DISTANCE
Installation MUST include at least 3-feet of vertical pipe outside the home. This will create some natural draft to
reduce the possibility of smoke or odor during appliance shutdown and keep exhaust from causing a nuisance
or hazard by exposing people or shrubs to high temperatures. The maximum recommend vertical venting height
is 12-feet for 3-inch type “PL” vent. Total length of horizontal vent must not exceed 4-feet. This could cause back
pressure. Use no more than 180 degrees of elbows (two 90-degree elbows, or two 45-degree and one 90-degree
elbow, etc.) to maintain adequate draft.
