Combustion Air

Intake or combustion air can be supplied to the stove 
in one of two ways.  Consult your local building code or 
Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and 
Equipment before proceeding.

1. 

Outside air supply 

- (Necessary for mobile home 

installation, optional for residential installation.) Out-
side air may be drawn from either underneath the 
stove or from behind.

To draw outside air through the fl oor, leave the 
100mmknockout or cover plate in place in the rear 
of the pedestal or leg kit ash box enclosure.

 Pedestal 

Model:

  Cut or drill a 100mm diameter hole 

in the fl oor anywhere inside the perimeter of the ped-
estal.  Cover the hole with a 100mm x 100mm rodent 
screen and staple/nail in place.

 Leg 

Model:

  Cut or drill a 100mm diameter hole di-

rectly below the bottom hole of the ash box enclosure.  
Connect enclosure to the fl oor with a short 100mmdi-
ameter pipe. If you wish to connect the outside air to 
the rear hole on the ash box, then remove the 100mm 
knockout or cover plate at the rear of the ash box.

This hole must get its air from a 

ventilated

 crawl 

space or be extended with duct to the outdoors (see 
Figure #4).  The use of outside combustion air for 
residential installation requires the unit to be secured 
to the structure to prevent dislodging of the air duct.  

To draw outside air from behind the stove cut or drill 
a 100mm hole through a wall behind the unit. Use an 
appropriate household 100mm inlet. You must remove 
the rear cover plate from the pedestal or move the 
cover plate at the rear of the leg kit ash box enclosure 
to cover the bottom hole.

Note:

  This unit is not designed to be operated with the 

fi ring door open. In addition to the obvious hazard of 
sparks landing on combustibles, an open fi re door 
will cause the heater to draw air from the living space 
and possibly cause suffocation.

2. 

Room air supply 

- Remove the cover plate from the 

rear of the pedestal or leg kit ash box enclosure.  The 
stove will now draw its air from the room through this 
opening and into the fi rebox intake.

Note:

  The living space around the heater must be well 

ventilated with good air circulation.  Anything that may 
cause a negative pressure can cause gases or fumes 
to be pulled into the living area.  During extremely cold 
weather, and especially when burning at very slow 
rates, the upper parts of the exposed chimney may 
ice up, partially blocking the fl ue gases.  If blockage 
occurs, fl ue gases may enter living space.

*  100mm diameter air inlet with rodent screen
*  If the crawl space is well ventilated it is not 
necessary to extend air inlet to outside
