Outside air for combustion can be brought in either through the bottom of the pedestal or through the rear plate of the pedestal.

Before leaving this unit with the customer, the installer must ensure that the appliance is firing correctly and operation fully explained to cus- tomer.

This includes:

1)Clocking the appliance to ensure the cor- rect firing rate (rate noted on label) after burning appliance for 15 minutes.

2)If required, adjusting the primary air to ensure that the flame does not carbon. First allow the unit to burn for 15-20 min. to stabilize.

CAUTION: Any alteration to the product that causes sooting or carboning or that results in damage is not the responsibility of the manu- facturer.

Outside Air Through

Pedestal Bottom

Once you have properly marked the position of your unit as outlined in "General Information" and "Clearances to Combustibles", cut a prop- erly sized hole though the floor directly under your pedestal base to the outside. Pipe fresh air into the pedestal area by using appropriate metallic duct pipe with a mesh grill at the outside termination. Do not remove the knockout.

CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES

The clearances listed below are MINIMUM dis- tances. Measure the clearance to both the appliance and the chimney connector. (The farthest distance is correct if the two clearances do not coincide.)For example, if the appliance is set as indicated in one of the figures but the connector is too close, move the stove until the correct clearance to the connec- tor is obtained.

This unit can be installed on a solid combustible surface like a wood floor. This unit can also be installed directly on carpeting or vinyl when the bottom pedestal cover plate (provided with unit) is installed.

This appliance may be installed only with the clearances as shown in the situations pictured. Do not combine clearances from one type of installation with another in order to achieve closer clearances.

Use the minimum clearances shown in the diagrams below for installation with "B" vent.

If further reduced clearances are needed, ob- tain requirements for construction of a protect- ed wall from your local building authorities and their allowable reductions of the listed clear- ances.
