Location of the Pellet Fire
Installation of the EcoChoice PS35 Freestanding Wood Pellet Burning Heater should be
undertaken by an experienced installer. Please read the EcoChoice PS35 Owner’s/Installation
Manual thoroughly before commencing installation as failure to follow the instruction could
cause damage to the pellet fire or property.
Positioning the fire:
Generally the EcoChoice PS35 should be installed in a centrally located position within the
home. When deciding where to position the appliance in your room you need to consider the
following:
•
Location of a power source.
•
The EcoChoice PS35 has a convection fan which blows air in the direction that the fire
faces, for optimum performance this location should be in a large room centrally located.
•
The EcoChoice PS35 must be installed on a non-combustible surface. This surface
must protrude 150mm from the front of the closed pellet fire door.
•
The EcoChoice PS35 has been Safety Tested to AS/NZS 2918 using the Davins
manufactured flue. Test Report ARS 05/1185. Installation is not exclusive to these
nominated kits, though alternative flue should only be considered following consultation
with your local council.
•
Please consult page 2 for the required clearances to combustible material also ensure
the position of structural elements near the proposed flue.
•
Because of the positive pressure in the flue, sealing of all 75mm stainless joints is
mandatory – use high temperature sealant. Both inner and outer flue joints must be
riveted.
