POSITIONING, ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION 

Environment of use 

The positioning of the stove is decisive for a successful and equal heating of the room. Before deciding where to place the stove, the 

following must be taken into account:

- The stove must be installed on a floor with a sufficient carrying capacity. If the existing building does not meet this requisite, appro-

priate measures must be taken (i.e. load distribution plate).

- The combustion air cannot be obtained from a garage or from an area without ventilation or exchange of air, but from a free or 

external space

- The stove must not be installed in a bedroom, bathroom or shower, or where there is already another heating appliance without an 

autonomous air flow (chimney, stove etc.)

- A non-combustable Hearth board 6” from front of unit and 6” from the sides must be installed before unit is placed on the floor.

- Installation is better in a large and central room in the house to ensure maximum circulation of the heat;

- Connection to the main supply is recommended using a grounded outlet (if the cable supplied is not long enough to reach the near-

est outlet, use an extension cord with a surge protector);

- The stove must be placed in a position that receives the necessary level of air for appropriate combustion of the pellets (at least 

131.23 f

3

/h must be available), in accordance with installation regulation and local legislations;

- All joints for connector pipe is required to be fastened with at least three screws.

- If vented horizontally joint should be siliconed with hi-temp. silicone and screwed so they are gas tight. (RTU 500 silicone)

- the chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar conceald space, or a floor or ceiling. Where 

passage through a wal, or partition of combustible construction is desired, the installationshall conform to CAN/CSA-B365.

The stove must be installed and assembled by qualified personnel.

The room must be:

- Prepared for the environmental functioning conditions

- Prepared with an adequate system of evacuation of smoke

- Have a 120V 60 Hz electricity mains supply

- Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another appliance

- Use only UL Listed Type L Vent or Pellet Vent 3” in. I.D. venting system to exhaust.  Do not install flue damper in the exhaust system 

of this unit.

- The chimney connector and each other adjoining section must be firmly attached and secured to the stove.

- Do not install the chimney directly at the outlet of the appliance. A chimney connector (flue pipe) is required unless the appliance is 

specifically approved for that type of installation.

- It is important to use all the specified components, do not use other components.

- “In Canada, to comply with CSA B365, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment, any combustible cov-

ering beneath the appliance and/or within the area extending horizontally at least 450 mm (18 in) beyond the appliance on any side 

equipped with a door, and at least 200 mm (8 in) beyond the appliance on other sides, shall be protected by a continuous, durable, 

non-combustible pad that will provide ember protection. The 450 mm (18 in) ember protection required on any side with a door shall 

extend for the full width of the appliance plus the 200 mm (8 in) required on each side of the appliance without a door. Where an 

appliance is installed less than 200 mm (8 in) from a wall,

the ember pad need only extend to the base of the wall. An ember pad shall not be placed on top of a carpet unless the pad is struc-

turally supported to prevent displacement and distortion”.

- Specification of the chimney as a CAN/ULC-S609 listed.
