Outside Air

Although strongly recommended, the use of outside air is optional, except where required by local building codes. To install outside air, use metal flex pipe, part

#1-00-08543 (25’ roll) See Fig. 6. There is a break- away hole on either rear panel which must be removed before connecting the flex pipe. See Fig. 7. The pipe should be run outside and terminate 3 feet or more below or 1 foot or more to the side of the vent pipe outlet. Never terminate the outside air above the vent pipe outlet. The maximum length of this pipe is 15 feet. Inlet cover part number 1-10-08542 should be used to keep birds, rodents etc.out of the inlet pipe. See Fig.6.

NOTE: If outside air is installed, the inlet cover should not be placed in an area where drifting of snow or ice will build up, blocking the intake air supply.

Hearth & Home Technologies strongly recommends the use of outside air for all pellet boiler applications.

Per national building codes, consideration must be given to combustion air supply for all appliances in the vicinity of the pellet boiler. Failure to supply adequate combustion air for all appliance demands may lead to backdrafting of those appliances. Consult with your HVAC Professional to determine that all combustion air requirements are met.

When the appliance is side-wall vented: The air intake is best located on the same exterior wall as, and lower than the exhaust vent outlet.

When the appliance is roof vented: The air intake is best located on the exterior wall oriented towards the prevailing wind direction, during the heating season.

The Outside Air Intake Pipe is inside the Rear Cover and to the right of the feeder motor. The flex pipe is made to slide inside the Air Intake Pipe. See Fig. 8. It should be held into place with silicone, foil tape, or a hose clamp. (not supplied)

Negative Pressure and Electrical Power Failure

To reduce the probability of back-drafting or burn-back in the pellet appliance during a power failure, the appliance must be able to draft naturally without exhaust blower operation. Negative pressure in the house will resist this natural draft if not accounted for in the pellet appliance installation.

Heat rises in the house and leaks out at upper levels. This air must be replaced with cold air from outdoors which flows into lower levels of the house. Vents and chimneys into basements and lower levels can become the conduit for air supply and reverse under these conditions.

The outside air supply will supply most of the demands of the pellet appliance to resist back-drafting, but consideration must be given to the total house demand. It may be necessary to add additional ventilation to the space in which the pellet appliance is located. Consult with your HVAC professional to determine the ventilation demands for your house.

During a loss of electrical power the hopper lid must be kept in a closed and latched position. Opening the lid while the combustion blower is non-operational will allow smoke into the home and potential overheating of the hopper and fuel. This can lead to a fire in the hopper.
