INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS - Venting
DIGITAL MONITOR
Mount the digital monitor on either the left or right side of the
cabinet and connect thermocouple wire to the monitor. Th
is
monitor shows the temperature of the catalyst. Press the red button
and the temperature will be displayed for 30 minutes. When
temperature is below 500 F, “COOL” will be displayed.
DRAFT
Draft is created by the heated air rising in the chimney system. Th
is draft will pull fresh combustion air into the
fi rebox. Recommended draft is .05 in. w.c at high fi re. Too little draft results in a sluggish fi re and smoking when
the furnace door is opened. Too much draft (over 0.06 in. w.c.) makes it unsafe to operate the furnace. Use a
barometric control if necessary to avoid excessive draft .
DO NOT OPERATE THE APEX WITH A DRAFT OF OVER .06 INCHES WATER COLUMN. HIGHER
DRAFT LEVELS MAY CAUSE THE FIRE TO BURN OUT OF CONTROL AND CREATE A FIRE HAZARD.
VENTING SYSTEMS
Th
e venting system consists of a fl ue pipe and a chimney. Th
ese get extremely hot during use. Temperatures
inside the chimney may exceed 2000 degrees in the event of a creosote fi re. To protect against the possibility
of a house fi re, the fl ue pipe and chimney must be properly installed and maintained. A listed thimble must be
used when a connection is made through a combustible wall to a chimney. A chimney support package must
be used when a connection is made through the ceiling to a listed prefabricated chimney. Th
ese accessories are
absolutely necessary to provide safe clearances to combustible wall and ceiling material.
Th
is furnace may be connected to a lined masonry chimney or a listed factory built chimney suitable for use with
solid fuels and conforming to, ULC629 in Canada or UL-103HT in the USA. Do not connect it to a chimney
serving another appliance. To do so will aff ect the safe operation of both appliances, and will void the furnace
warranty. must comply with the local authority having jurisdiction and/or in Canada, CSA installation standard
B365-M87.
Th
e fl ue pipe must be 7” diameter, 24/26 MSG Back/Blue steel. Do not use aluminum or galvanized steel. Th
ey
cannot properly withstand the extreme temperatures of a wood fi re. Th
e fl ue pipe between the furnace and the
chimney should be as short and direct as possible. Blaze King recommends the use of double wall pipe and two
45° elbows instead of a single 90° elbow. A minimum 36” rise is recommended prior to any elbows being used.
Th
e fl ue pipe must be attached to either an approved masonry chimney or one of the listed factory built
chimneys suitable for use with solid wood fuel. All joints must be tight and fastened with sheet metal screws.
WARNING: The fl ue pipe is to be used only within the room, between the furnace and ceiling/
wall. Never use a fl ue pipe to pass through a combustible ceiling or wall. Always maintain the
minimum clearances to combustibles as required by the applicable building codes.
