veNTINg

Consult vent manufacturer's specifications and
recommendations for all venting installations.
The following installation guidelines must be followed to
ensure conformity with both the safety listing of this stove
and to local building codes.
Note: where passage through a wall, or partition
of combustible construction is desired, the instal-
lation shall conform to caN/csa -8365.

Type Of veNT

The pellet venting pipe (also known as L vent) is
constructed of two layers with air space between the
layers. This air space acts as an insulator and reduces
outside surface temperature of pipe to allow a clearance
to combustibles.
A UL listed " or " type L pellet vent exhaust system must
be used for installation and attached to the pipe connector
provided on the back of the stove. Use a " to " adapter
for " pipe. A cap must be used at the termination of type
L vent chimneys. For elevations above ,00 feet above
sea level, a " L is required.

pelleT veNT INSTAllATION

Termination muST exhaust above air inlet elevation.
It is recommended to install at least three feet of vertical
pellet vent pipe. This vertical pipe will create some natural
draft to prevent the possibility of smoke or odor during
appliance shutdown.
The installation must include a clean out tee to enable
collection of fly ash and to permit periodic cleaning of
the exhaust system.
Total length of horizontal vent must not exceed 10 feet.
The maximum recommended vertical venting height is 1
feet. All joints for pellet vent are required to be fastened
with at least three screws and all pellet vent connections
must be sealed according to the vent manufacturer's
recommendations.
The area where the vent pipe goes through to the exterior
of the home must be sealed with silicone or other means
to maintain the vapor barrier between the exterior and
the interior of the home.
