Mobile home installation should be done in accordance with
the Manufactured Home and Safety Standard (HUD), CFR
3280, Part 24. Canadian installations require that the heater
must be connected to a 3 or 4 inch, factory-built chimney con-
forming to CAN/ULC-S629. See the installation illustrations
in this manual for minimum height above the roof. U.S. Stove
suggests the use of Selkirk’s Pellet Venting Products. Refer
to their installation instructions for proper installation of the
exhaust and combustion air intake. The chimney installation
must allow for removal in case of mobile home transporta-
tion, especially outside connections. You may contact your
local building authority or person having jurisdiction on height
restrictions.
In order for this unit to be installed in a mobile home the fol-
lowing criteria must be met:
•
The unit must be secured to the
fl
oor using lag bolts in
the holes provided in the pedestal base.
•
Ensure that the unit is permanently electrically grounded
to the chassis of your home with 18 gauge copper wire.
•
All exhaust systems must have a spark arrestor.
IT IS MANDATORY TO TAKE THE COMBUSTION AIR FROM
THE OUTSIDE WHEN INSTALLING THIS UNIT IN AIR TIGHT
OR MANUFACTURED/MOBILE HOMES.
CAUTION:
THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MANU-
FACTURED HOME FLOOR, WALL, AND CEILING/ROOF
MUST BE MAINTAINED. MAKE SURE TO MAINTAIN AN EF-
FECTIVE VAPOR BARRIER BY SEALING WITH SILICONE
WHERE THE CHIMNEY OR OTHER COMPONENTS PEN-
ETRATE TO THE EXTERIOR OF THE STRUCTURE. REFER
