INSTALLATION
COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY
For a mobile home installation the stove must be connected to an outside source of combustion air. A 2” inside diameter metallic pipe, either flexible or rigid, may be attached to the inlet at the stove’s rear (refer to figures 5 & 6). A rodent guard (minimum ¼” wire mesh)/wind hood must be used at the terminus (refer to figure 7). All connections must be secured and airtight by either using the appropriately sized hose clamp and/or
For mobile home installations only: 2” inside diameter pipe may be used for the first 5 feet of combustion air supply run. From 5 to 10 feet use 2 ¾” inside diameter pipe. No combustion air supply may exceed 10 feet.
Sources of Outside Combustion Air
a.In fireplaces
•Chimney top.
•Ash clean out door.
b.For freestanding installations
•A hole in floor near stove rear terminating only in a ventilated crawl space.
•A hole in the wall behind the stove.
WHEN OUTSIDE AIR IS NOT USED
If outside air is not used, it is important that combustion air is easily available to the air inlet. A closeable outside air register can be used in tightly insulated homes. In insert installations, flashing vents should not be restricted. The flashing should not necessarily seal the fireplace face.
VENTING
The Breckwell P4000 Vermont is certified for use with listed TYPE L- Vent, 3” or 4” diameter in size. The stove was tested with Simpson Duravent brand. Class “A” chimney is not required. Refer to the instructions provided by the vent manufacturer, especially when passing through a wall, ceiling or roof.
This is a pressurized exhaust system. We suggest sealing all vent connector joints with 500°F (260°C) RTV silicone sealant to ensure consistent performance and to avoid smoke spillage. We also suggest that all horizontal connector joints be sealed with
