Installation
Note A: Double wall PL vent requires a minimum of three inch (3”) clearance to combustibles
and the use of a listed wall thimble, fire stop or roof flashing where applicable.
ATTENTION: We strongly recommend using a battery backup system if the pellet stove is
installed using horizontal venting only. This prevents any smoke from entering your home
in the event of a power failure.

1. PL vent may be installed directly through a combustible wall, ceiling or roof according to PL
vent manufacturer’s instructions. (See Figures 2 and 3).
2. The PL vent system must be properly sealed and secured as per PL vent manufacturer’s
specifications. An airtight seal is necessary in connecting the vent to the stove. Using a PL Vent
pipe adapter, secure the PL vent with at least three sheet metal screws and high temperature
silicone adhesive, (RTV), or metal tape at each joint.
