INSTALLATION
PAGE 9
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.
