In addition to the previously detailed installation
requirements, mobile home installations must
meet the following requirements:
• The space heater is to be connected to a factory-
built chimney conforming to CAN/ULC-S629,
Standard for 650°C Factory-Built Chimneys.
• The heater must be permanently attached to the
floor. There are two holes in the pedestal base,
use 3/8” bolts through the floor.
• The heater must be electrically grounded to the
steel chassis of the mobile home with 8 GA copper
wire using a serrated or star washer to penetrate
paint or protective coating to ensure grounding.
• When moving your mobile home, all exterior
venting must be removed while the mobile home
is being relocated. After relocation, all venting
must be reinstalled and securely fastened.
•
Outside Air is mandatory for mobile home
installation. See your dealer for purchasing.
•
Check with your local building officials as other
codes may apply.
•
Only use the specified components listed in this
manual for this unit. The use of components
that are not meant for this unit can cause unsafe
conditions.

Male Part Downwards
1/4” slope per foot
The chimney connector and chimney must have
the same diameter as the stove outlet (6”). If this
is not the case, we recommend you contact your
dealer to ensure there will be no problem with the
draft. The stovepipe must be made of aluminized
or cold roll steel and have a minimum thickness
of 0.021” or 0.53 mm. It is strictly forbidden to
use galvanized steel. The smoke pipe should be
assembled to promote the male section (crimped
end) of the pipe to be faced down. Attach each
section to another with three metal screws spaced
an equal distance apart. The pipe must be short
and straight. All sections installed horizontally
must slope at least 1/4 inch per foot, with the
upper end of the section toward the chimney. Any
installation with a horizontal run of chimney pipe
must conform to NFPA 211. To ensure a good draft,
the total length of the coupling pipe should never
exceed 8’ to 10’ (2.4m to 3.04m). Except for cases of
vertical installation, in a cathedral-roof style where
the smoke exhaust system can be much longer
and connected without problem to the chimney
at the ceiling of the room. There should never be
more than two 90 degrees elbows in the smoke
exhaust system. The installation of a “barometric
draft stabilizer” (fireplace register) on a smoke
exhaust system is prohibited. Furthermore, the
installation of a draft damper is not recommended.
With a controlled combustion wood stove, the draft
is regulated upon intake of the combustion air in
the stove and not at the exhaust.
IMPORTANCE OF PROPER DRAFT
Draft is a force that moves air from the appliance
up through the chimney. The amount of draft
in your chimney depends on the length of the
chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and
other factors. Too much draft may cause excessive
temperatures in the appliance. An inadequate
draft may cause back-puffing into the room and
“plugging” of the chimney. An inadequate draft will
cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room
through appliance and chimney connector joints.
An uncontrollable burn or excessive temperature
indicates an excessive draft.
