SECURING THE STOVE TO THE FLOOR

INSTALLATION

SECURING THE STOVE TO THE FLOOR

Manufactured (Mobile) Homes Only

Once the outside air floor duct is in position, replace the floor protector. Make sure that the floor protector's hole is aligned with the outside air opening. Next position and align the stove on the hearth pad. Manufactured (mobile) home installations require that the stove be secured to the floor. This ensures that the stove will not shift when the manufactured (mobile) home is moved. To do this, mark where the holes are to be drilled using a marking instrument long enough and small enough to fit through the (4) four holes in the stove base. Mark holes, then remove the stove. Drill the (4) four holes, with a ¼” (7

mm)drill bit. Drill down through the floor protector and the manufactured (mobile) home floor. Use ¼” (7 mm) lag bolts and secure to the manufactured (mobile) home floor.

NOTE: If the composition of the manufactured (mobile) home floor is of light particleboard construction, you will be required to secure the stove with regular hex head bolts and nuts. This will ensure that the bolts will not rip out of the floor when the manufactured (mobile) home is being moved.

GROUNDING STOVE

Manufactured (Mobile) Homes Only

Regulations require that all stoves installed in manufac- tured (mobile) homes must be grounded. To do this sim- ply attach a piece of No. 8 copper wire, at least 18” (457

mm)in length from the stove to the chassis of the manu- factured (mobile) home.

INSTALLING CATALYTIC TEMPERATURE PROBE Locate the temperature probe with sleeve in the literature packet. Insert sleeve, then temperature probe into the ¼” (7 mm) diameter hole on the stove top.

REMOVE ASH DRAWER CLIP

The ash drawer is secured for shipping with a small re- taining screw at the top of drawer. Remove and discard this screw.

TYPES OF CHIMNEYS

The chimney is a vital part of your stove installation. A properly built masonry chimney or a properly installed factory built chimney will assure a consistent draft under a variety of weather conditions (a smoking stove is usu- ally caused by a chimney problem). The stove flue size is 6” (152 mm) diameter, which is approximately 28 square inches (712 square millimeters) minimum. The maximum flue size should be no more than (3)-three times the cross sectional area of the size of the stove flue collar. In this case, that would be no larger than a 10“ (254 mm) diameter stack, or approximately 85 square inches (216 square centimeters) maximum.

All chimneys must be installed as specified by local building codes and according to the chimney manufac- turer instructions (in the case of a factory built chimney). See the chimney manufacturer instructions for exact specifications. Factory built chimneys must comply with UL 103HT or ULC S629.

ACCEPTABLE CONNECTOR PIPE FOR INSTALLA- TIONS

For Standard Residential Clearances: Six 6 inch (152

mm)minimum, single wall, 25 gage minimum thickness, stove pipe is acceptable. Three (3) pre-drilled holes are provided in the flue collar for fastening the pipe securely to the stove. Use sheet metal screws to do this. Addi- tional sections of single wall pipe should be fastened to- gether with at least three (3) sheet metal screws each section. When connecting to the factory built ceiling sup- port package, use the manufacturer's transition piece, usually called a dripless connector, to join single wall pipe to their factory built chimney section.

Minimum Flue Size: The required minimum diameter and area required for the flue size is (respectively) 6 inches / 152 mm diameter, which is approximately 28 square inches / 711 square mm. The maximum flue size should be no more than (3) three times the cross sec- tional area of the size of the 6 inches / 152 mm diameter flue collar. In this case, that would be no larger than a 10 inch (254 mm) diameter (area = approx. 85 sq. inches [216 sq. cm]).

Connection To A Factory Built Chimney: This space heater is to be connected to a factory-built chimney con- forming to CAN / ULC – S629, Standard for 650°C Fac- tory-Built Chimneys.

For Reduced Residential Clearances: Type L and listed double wall connector pipe is acceptable. Install any factory built brand of pipe according to the manufac- turer's instructions.
