Recommendation: Chimney installation in a windy area must rise above the roof.
It may be normal for ice build-up around the cap during cold or windy days.
Chimney types (continued)
7
Mobile home installation
Use PL type chimney for immediate evacuation outside the mobile home. Refer to the chimney diagram for proper
exhaust installation. The space heater is to be connected to a factory-built chimney conforming to CAN/ULC-S629,
standard for 650 degrees F. For proper clearances, remove outside sections of the chimney when displacing the
mobile home. Outside air inlet must be provided for combustion and be unrestricted while unit is in use. Refer to
ouside inlet installation on page 8. The stove must be securely fastened to the floor by using one bolt in the front
and two bolts in the back of the unit.
Since this is a multi-fuel stove, it is recommended to choose an approved venting system. If you choose wood pel-
lets, a double wall 3’’ or 7.6 cm stainless steel pipes are recommended. For agriculture fuel, it is recommended to
use double wall PL type 3’’ or 7.6 cm stainless with higher quality durability. Refer to the vent pipe manufacturer for
more details.
Do not use a non-approved pipe for your vent system. i.e., Dryer vent, “B” vent for gas vent, PVC/plastic pipe or
single wall chimney system.
Please note that the length of a horizontal venting system shall not exceed 24’’.
Always vent to the outside atmosphere and never into enclosed spaces, i.e. garage, car port etc. Venting systems
can generate heat and smoke.
High elevation
High altitude reduces air capacity to the burner. To help increase the air speed, a vertical chimney above the roof is
recommended to create a natural air flow. Refer to the chimneys diagrams on page 11 and 12.
Negative pressure in the house or starvation air
The use of a bathroom fan, dryer, kitchen hood fan, etc., can create negative pressure, especially in new air tight
homes. Combined, these fans consume three times more powerful than the combustion fan on the RAFAEL, and
may create a significant drop of pressure therefore a lack of air to the burner that may cause a fire extinguish
-
ing. Paromax suggest you take a gauge reading before, during and after the use of your appliances and/or fans
to check the pressure variations. If the pressure changes, Paromax recommends installing an outside air intake.
Refer to fresh air installation for more information.
