An outside air inlet must be provided for
combustion when installing in a mobile home.
See
page 2 for installation information.
2. Appliance must be secured to the mobile home structure
by bolting the pedestal through hearth pad and into floor.
3. Appliance must be grounded with #8 solid copper
grounding wire or equivalent and terminated at each end
with N.E.C. approved grounding device.
4. Appliance must be installed with an approved UL10
HT ventilated chimney connector, UL10 HT chimney, and
terminal cap with spark arrestor. Never use a single wall
connector (stove pipe) in a mobile home installation. Use
only double-wall connector pipe, Dura-Vent DVL, Selkirk
metalbestos DS or Security DL double-wall connector or
any listed double-wall connector pipe.
5. In Canada, this appliance must be connected to a 6 inch
(152mm) factory-built chimney conforming to CAN/ULC-
629M, STANDARD FOR FACTORY BUILT CHIMNEYS.
6. Follow the chimney and chimney connector
manufacturer’s instructions when installing the flue
system for use in a mobile home.
7. Maintain clearance to combustibles.
8. Floor protection requirements must be followed
precisely.
9. Use silicone to create an effective vapor barrier at
the location where the chimney or other component
penetrates to the exterior of the structure.
NOTE:
Offsets from the vertical, not exceeding 45°, are
allowed per Section 905(a) of the Uniform Mechanical
Code (UMC). Offsets greater than 45° are considered
horizontal and are also allowed, providing the horizontal
run does not exceed 75% of the vertical height of the
vent. Construction, clearance and termination must be
in compliance with the UMC Table 9C. This installation
must also comply with NFPA 211.NOTE: Top sections of
chimney must be removable to allow maximum clearance
of 1.5 feet (411cm) from ground level for transportation
purposes.
10. Burn wood only. Other types of fuels may generate
poisonous gases (e.g., carbon monoxide).
11. If unit burns poorly while an exhaust blower is on in
home, (i.e., range hood), increase combustion air.
12. Installation shall be in accordance with the Manufacturers
