cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. Inadequate
draft may cause backpuffing into the room and ‘plugging’
of the chimney. 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 excessive draft. Take into account the
chimney’s location to ensure it is not too close to neighbors
or in a valley which may cause unhealthy or nuisance
conditions.
SECURING APPLIANCE TO THE FLOOR
WARNING! DO NOT INSTALL IN SLEEPING ROOM.
CAUTION! THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MOBILE
HOME FLOOR, WALL, AND CEILING/ROOF MUST BE
MAINTAINED.
WHEN INSTALLED IN A MOBILE HOME, THE STOVE MUST
BE GROUNDED DIRECTLY TO THE STEEL CHASSIS AND
BOLTED TO THE FLOOR.
In addition to the previously detailed installation
requirements, mobile home installations must meet the
following requirements:
• This stove must be securely fastened to the floor of the
mobile home using two 1/4” lag bolts that are long
enough to go through both a hearth pad, if used, and the
floor of the home.
• 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 the “Outside Air Supply” section and your dealer for
purchasing.
• Check with your local building officials as other codes
may apply.
VENTING
This unit is certified for use with listed type L-Vent, 3” or
4” diameter in size. The stove was tested with Simpson
Duravent brand. Class “A” chimney is not required. Refer
to the instructions provided by the vent manufacturer,
especially when passing through a wall, ceiling or roof.
This is a pressurized exhaust system. All vent connector
joints must be sealed with 500°F (260°C) RTV silicone
sealant to ensure consistent performance and avoid smoke
spillage. All horizontal connector joints must be sealed with
UL-181-AP foil tape. We recommend that all vertical vent
connector joints be secured with a minimum of 3 screws. It
is strongly recommended that you have a minimum of 6’ of
vertical pipe in your exhaust system. For best performance
of the stove limit the number of elbows and horizontal pipe
as much as possible.
WARNING:
• INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE
VENT MANUFACTURER.
• DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE
SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
• DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST
VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT. INSTALL VENT AT
CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT MANUFACTURER.
EQUIVALENT VENT LENGTH (EVL)
The longer the run of pipe in your installation (both with
insert and freestanding), the more restriction there is in the
system. Therefore, larger diameter pipe should be used.
• Use 4” pipe if you have more than 15 feet of equivalent
vent length.
• Horizontal runs shall not exceed 10 feet of EVL.
• Recommended vertical runs to be minimum of 8 feet.
• To calculate EVL, use the following conversions:
90º elbow or “T”
= 5 equivalent feet
45º elbow
= 3 equivalent feet
Horizontal Pipe Run = 1 equivalent foot per actual foot
Vertical Pipe Run
=
0.5 equivalent foot per actual
foot
NOTE: At altitudes above 3,000 feet, we suggest the use of
4” diameter vent at an EVL of 7 feet or more.
FREESTANDING INSTALLATION
A. HORIZONTALLY THROUGH WALL
NOTE: Follow L-Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions.
1. Position stove, adhering to clearances provided in this
manual.
2. Locate position of hole in wall; directly behind stove
exhaust vent.
3. Always maintain 3” clearance from combustible
materials.
4. Install L-Vent wall thimble per L-Vent manufacturer’s
instructions.
