INSTALLATION

7

Equivalent Vent Length (EVL)

The longer the run of pipe in your installation (both with insert and freestanding), 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’ of EVL.

∙Recommended vertical runs to be minimum of 8’.

∙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 INSTALLATION

A.HORIZONTALLY THROUGH WALL (refer to Figure 8) NOTE: Follow L-Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions.

1.Position stove, adhering to clearances shown in Figures 1 & 2.

2.Locate position of hole in wall; directly behind stove exhaust vent (refer to figure 5).

3.Always maintain 3” clearance from combustible materials.

4.Install L-Vent wall thimble per L-Vent manufacturer’s instructions.

5.Attach enough piping to penetrate and extend at least 6” beyond exterior walls. An 8-foot vertical pipe run is suggested where possible to reduce the possibility of smoke spillage in the event of a loss of negative pressure.

6.Attach cap and seal outside wall thimbles with non-hardening waterproof mastic.

7.Termination should not be located so that hot exhaust gases

can ignite trees, shrubs, or grasses or be a hazard to children.

 

FIGURE 8

Exhaust gases can reach temperatures of 500ºF and cause

 

 

 

serious burns if touched.

Locate terminations: a) not less than 3 feet above any

 

 

forced air inlet located within 10 feet; b) not less than 4

 

feet below or horizontally from, or one foot above, any

 

door, window or gravity air inlet into any building; c) not

 

less than two feet from an adjacent building and not

 

less than 7 feet above grade when located adjacent to

 

a public walkway. Mobile home installations must use

 

a spark arrester.
