Getting Started

A.  Design, Installation & Location Consider-

ations

Warning! Risk of Fire

 

Damaged parts could impair safe 

operation. Do NOT install damaged, incomplete or substitute 
components. 

1. Appliance Location

NOTICE: Check building codes prior to installation.

•  Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and 

national codes and regulations.

•  Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, fi re 

offi cials or authorities having jurisdiction over restrictions, 
installation inspection and permits.

It is a good idea to plan your installation on paper, using 
exact measurements for clearances and fl oor  protection, 
before actually beginning the installation

Consideration must be given to:

•  Safety, convenience, traffi c fl ow

•  Placement of the chimney and chimney connector.  

•  If you are not using an existing chimney, place the appli-

ance where there will be a clear passage for a factory-
built listed chimney through the ceiling and roof.  

•  Installing an optional outside air kit would affect the loca-

tion of the vent termination.

CAUTION!

   

If burning shelled fi eld corn, you must use ap-

proved venting specifi cally designed for corn to prevent corro-
sion or degradation.  Follow the instructions from the venting 
manufacturer.

Since pellet exhaust can contain ash, soot or sparks, you 
must consider the location of:

• Windows

• Air 

Intakes

• Air 

Conditioner

• Overhang, 

soffi ts, porch roofs, adjacent walls 

• Landscaping, 

vegetation

When locating vent and venting termination, vent above roof 
line when possible.
