INSTALLATION
Equivalent Vent Length (EVL)
The longer the run of pipe in your installation (both with insert and freestanding models), the more restriction there is in the system. Therefore, larger diameter pipe should be used.
∙Use 4” pipe if you have more than 15 feet of equivalent vent length.
∙Horizontal runs shall not exceed 10 feet of EVL.
∙Recommended vertical runs to be a minimum of 8 feet.
∙To calculate EVL, use the following conversions:
90º elbow or “T” | = 5 equivalent feet |
45º elbow | = 3 equivalent feet |
Horizontal Pipe Run | = 1 equivalent foot per actual foot |
Vertical Pipe Run | = 0.5 equivalent foot per actual foot |
NOTE: At altitudes above 3,000 feet, we suggest the use of 4” diameter vent at an EVL of 7 feet or more.
FREESTANDING INSTALLATIONS
A.ASSEMBLING PEDESTAL OR LEG SET
If using a pedestal, follow the instructions inside the Breckwell P23 Pedestal w/ Ashpan Part #
(Refer to figure 8).
If using cast legs, follow the instructions inside the Breckwell P23
Leg Set w/ Ashpan Part #
Legs are installed by using the four bolts provided in the kit into the four holes under the stove at each corner, thread on nuts from the top and tighten. Make sure to save the hole plugs.
NOTE: If converting from legs to pedestal the hole plugs must be installed in the unused holes.
