• CAUTION! - The structural integrity of the mobile
home floor, wall, and ceiling/roof must be
maintained.
NOTE: Installation should be in accordance with the
Manufactured Home and Safety Standard (HUD), CFR
3280, Part 24.
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 through the two holes in the
rear of the stove using 2, ¼” 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.
• Vent must be 3 or 4-inch “PL” Vent and must extend
a minimum or 36 in.(914mm) above the roof line of the mobile home and must be installed using a UL listed ceiling
fire stop and rain cap.
•
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 Outside Air Supply section and your dealer for purchasing.
•
Check with your local building officials as other codes may apply.

OUTSIDE AIR SUPPLY (OPTIONAL, UNLESS INSTALLING IN A MOBILE HOME)
Adequate ventilation air is required to operate this heater. During operation, the heater draws air for combustion which
can be assisted by the installation of outside combustion air inlets. However, certain weather conditions such as icing
or use of kitchen exhaust fans may impact and reduce the effectiveness of vents. It is important to note that room air
starvation will negatively impact the operation of the heater.
Depending on your location and home construction, outside air may be necessary for optimal performance. Metal pipe
(solid or flexible) must be used for the outside air installation. PVC pipe is NOT approved and should NEVER be used. A
wind shield over the termination of the outside air pipe or a 90-degree elbow or bend away from the prevailing winds
MUST be used when an outside air pipe is installed through the side of a building. The outside air termination MUST be at
least 1ft (0.305m) away from the exhaust system termination.
The outside air pipe on your heater is 2” (50.8mm) OD. The outside air connecting pipe must be at least 2” (50.8mm) ID.
The outside air connection used MUST NOT restrict the amount of air available to your heater. The outside air connecting
pipe must be as short and free of bends as possible, and it must fit over, not inside, the outside air connection to the
heater.
