MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION
Once you have properly marked the position of
your unit and the floor protection as outlined in
the Residential Installation items #1 through #8, a
supply of fresh air has to be supplied to your unit.
See Optional Outside Air Kit instructions in this
manual.
Place your unit in position and secure it to the floor
using two lag bolts 3/8" (10mm) x 3-1/2" (89mm)
through the two holes inside the pedestal base.
It is important to maintain the structural integrity
of the Mobile Home floor, walls and roof when
installing your unit.
For Mobile Home units installed in the U.S. the unit
must be grounded using a #8 ground wire with
approved termination and star washer.
In addition to standard installation instructions
the following requirements are mandatory for
installation in a mobile home.
1.
The stove must be permanently bolted to
the floor of the Mobile Home using the floor
screws provided.
2.
The stove must have a permanent outside
air source for combustion.
3.
The stove must be electrically grounded to
the steel chassis of the Mobile Home.
4.
A listed double-wall connector chimney
system, roof thimble, spark arrestor and roof
flashing kit suitable for use in Mobile Homes
must be used.
5.
If the chimney exits the Mobile Home at a
location other than through the roof, and
exits at a point 7ft. (2130mm) or less above
the ground level on which the Mobile Home
is positioned a guard or method of enclosing
the chimney shall be fitted at the point of exit
for a height up to 7ft. (2130mm).
6.
The chimney shall be attached directly to the
room heater and shall extend at least 3 ft.
(914mm) above the part of the roof through
which it passes. The top of the chimney should
project at least 2ft. (610mm) above the high-
est elevation of any part of the Mobile Home
within 10 ft. (3048mm) of the chimney.
7.
The chimney system shall comply with Local
Requirements.
8.
Any openings in a chimney guard where
required must not permit the entrance of 3/4"
(19mm) diameter rod.
9. CAUTION: THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY
OF THE MOBILE HOME ROOF, FLOOR,
WALLS AND CEILING MUST BE MAIN-
TAINED.
10.
Check any other local building code as other
local codes may apply.
11.
WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEP-
ING ROOM OF A MOBILE HOME.
12.
Use silicone to create an effective vapour
barrier at the location where the chimney or
other component penetrates to the exterior
of the structure.
CAUTION: At no time use unlabelled
parts, or substitute parts made for another
chimney system.
Install as per chimney manufacturer's
installation instructions.
For Canadian Installations
: see Outside Air
Kit Blanking Plate - Part # 042-909
There are further requirements when installing
this unit into a mobile home in Canada Only.
WARNING: Operate only with door fully
closed - open feed door to feed fire only.
1.
Identify the position of the outside air damper by the orientation of the metal handle that rests outside
the galvanized pipe. The metal handle and the damper disc are in line with each other. This means
that if the metal handle is in a horizontal position, the damper is flat and fully open.
2.
Open the damper fully whenever you start a fire. This will allow the outside air to be drawn in the
pedestal base eliminating any potential smoke escaping the stove and entering the room. (Negative
air pressure)
