A. Chimney and Exhaust Connection

1.Chimney & Connector: Use 3 or 4 inch (76-102mm) diameter type "L" or "PL" venting system. It can be vented vertically or horizontally.

2.Mobile Home: Approved for all Listed pellet vent. If using the 3 inch (76mm) vertical Top Vent Adapter Kit or the 3 to 6 inch (76-152mm) Top Vent Offset Adapter, use Listed double wall flue connector. A Quadra-Fire Outside Air Kit must be used with manufactured home installations.

3.Residential: The 3 inch (76mm) vertical Top Vent Adapter Kit and the 3 to 6 inch (76-152mm) Top Vent Offset Adapter are tested to use 24 gauge single wall flue connector or Listed double wall flue connector to Class A Listed metal chimneys, or masonry chimneys meeting International Conference of Building Officials (ICBO) standards for solid fuel appliances.

4.Install vent at clearances specified by the vent manufacturer.

5. Secure exhaust venting system to the appliance with at least 3 screws. Also secure all connector pipe joints with at least 3 screws through each joint.

6.DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.

7.DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.

NOTE: All pipe must be welded seam pipe whenever pos- sible. Seal pipe joints with high temperature silicone (500°F [260°C] minimum rated only). Do not put silicone inside of pipe.

NOTE: If burning shelled field corn, you must use approved venting specifically designed for corn. Follow the instruc- tions from the venting manufacturer.

WARNING

Fire Hazard.

•Only LISTED venting components may be used.

•NO OTHER vent components may be used. Substitute or damaged vent components may impair safe operation.

B. Venting Termination Requirements

CAUTION

Do not terminate vent in any enclosed or semi-enclosed area such as a carport, garage, attic, crawl space, under a sun deck or porch, narrow walkway or closely fenced area, or any location that can build up a concentration of fumes such as a stairwell, covered breezeway, etc.

1. Termination must exhaust above air inlet elevation. It is recommended that at least 60 inches (1.5m) of verti- cal pipe be installed when appliance is vented directly through a wall. This will create a natural draft, which will help prevent the possibility of smoke or odor venting into the home during a power outage. It will also keep exhaust from causing a nuisance or hazard by exposing people or shrubs to high temperatures. The safest and preferred venting method is to extend the vent vertically through the roof.

2. Distance from doors and opening windows, or gravity or ventilation air inlets into building:

a.Not less than 48 inches (1.2m) below;

b.Not less than 48 inches (1.2m) horizontally from;

c.Not less than 12 inches (305mm) above.

3.Distance from permanently closed windows:

a.Not less than 12 inches (305mm) below, horizontally from or above.

4. Distance between bottom of termination and grade should be 12 inches (305mm) minimum. This is con- ditional upon plants in the area, and nature of grade surface. The grade surface must be a non-combustible material (i.e., rock, dirt). The grade surface must not be lawn. Distance between bottom of termination and public walkway should be 84 inches (2.1m) minimum.

5. Distance to combustible materials must be 24 inches (610mm) minimum. This includes adjacent buildings, fences, protruding parts of the structure, roof overhang, plants and shrubs, etc.

6.Termination Cap Location (Home Electrical Service)

•Side-to-side clearance is to be the same as minimum clearance to vinyl inside corners.

•Clearance of a termination cap below electrical service shall be the same as minimum clearance to vinyl soffits.

WARNING

Vent surfaces get HOT, can cause burns if touched. Noncombustible shielding or guards may be required.

•Clearance of a termination cap above electrical service will be 12 inches (305mm) minimum.

•Location of the vent termination must not obstruct or interfere with access to the electrical service.
