Special Mobile Home Requirements
WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM.
For installation in a mobile home, the outside air connection (fresh air) must be used.
The Breckwell SP 6000 Multi-fuel must be grounded to the steel chassis of the home with 8 Ga. copper wire using a
serrated or star washer to penetrate paint or protective coating to ensure grounding.
The Breckwell SP 6000 Multi-fuel must be securely fastened to the floor of the mobile home through the holes in the side
of the pedestal of the stove using 2, ¼” lag bolts that are long enough to go through both a hearth pad, if used, and the
floor of the home.
NOTE: INSTALLATION OF THIS UNIT INTO A MOBILE HOME MUST BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE “MANUFACTURED HOME & SAFETY
STANDARD (HUD), CFR 3280, PART 24.
THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MOBILE HOME FLOOR, WALL AND CEILING/ROOF MUST BE
MAINTAINED.
Examples of Proper Installation
Horizontally Through Wall
NOTE: FOLLOW L-VENT CHIMNEY MANUFACTURERS INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Position stove, adhering to clearances shown in Figure 1.
2. Locate position of hole in wall directly behind stove exhaust vent
(refer to figure 3).
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 beyond exterior walls.
Attach an elbow or cleanout Tee and take the pipe vertical. A
MINIMUM OF 5-FOOT VERTICAL RUN OF PIPE IS REQUIRED, AND 7-FOOT
OR MORE IS HIGHLY ENCOURAGED. This will generate natural draft
and greatly reduce or eliminate the amount of smoke that enters the
home during a power outage or combustion blower failure.
6. Attach cap and seal outside wall thimbles with non-hardening
waterproof mastic.
7. All joints in the exhaust pipe, including where it attaches to the stove
should be sealed with RTV silicone and UL-181 foil tape.
8. Termination should not be located so that hot exhaust gases can ignite trees, shrubs, or grasses or be a hazard to
children. Exhaust gases can reach temperatures of 500ºF and cause serious burns if touched.
Locate terminations: a) not less then 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.
NOTE: THIS UNIT IS NOT APPROVED FOR USE WITH A DIRECT-VENT TYPE OF
VENTING WHICH HAS NO VERTICAL PIPE. A MINIMUM OF 5’ OF VERTICAL PIPE IS
REQUIRED.
