INSTALLATION



Installation Overview



Whenchoosingalocationforyournewstove,thereareamultitudeoffactorsthat

shouldbetakenintoaccountbeforebeginningtheinstallation.



1.TrafficPatterns–Tohelppreventaccidents,thestoveshouldbeplacedinalocation

whereitisoutofthewayofnormaltravelthroughthe home.



2.HeatFlow–Whendecidingonalocationforthestove,considerthewayheatmoves

throughoutyourhome.Installthestovewhereyouneedtheheat;basement

installationsoftendonotallowsufficientheattoflowtotheupperfloorsandatop

floorinstallationwillnotallow any heattoreachthefloorsbelow. Alwaysconsider

thatheatrisesandwilltakethepathofleastresistancewhileitisstillhot.



3.ExhaustLocation–Theenginewhichdrivesawoodstoveisthechimneysystem,so

itisimportanttoconsiderpreciselyhowthechimneysystemwillbeintegratedinto

thestoveinstallation. Ideally,awoodstovechimney willruncompletelyvertical

fromthefluecollaroftheunitallthewaytotheterminationpointabovetheroof

line. Keepingtheentirechimneysysteminsidetheheatedenvelopeofthehome

willensureastrong,easytoinitiatedraftinthechimney. Althoughexteriorchimney

systemsoftenfunctionproperly,theyaremorelikelytosufferfromcolddowndrafts

atstartuporprovideweakdrafttotheunit. Also,considerthecross‐sectionalarea

ofthechimney;althoughexistingmasonrychimneyscanoftenbeused,alarge

externalmasonrychimneywillresultinaunitthatisdifficultorimpossibleto

operateproperly. Inthatcase,aninsulatedchimneylinerwilloftenberequiredto

supplythenecessarydraft.



4.WallConstruction–Locatingthestovesothattheexhaustsystemcanpassbetween

studswillsimplifytheinstallationandeliminatetheneedtoreframeanysectionsof

INSTALLATION



INSTALLATION INTO A MASONRY FIREPLACE

Preparation

Measure your hearth to ensure it is large enough to accept the unit.

Unit must have a 36” clearance from the top of the stove to a mantel in accordance with NFPA 211

For the USA: Hearth must extend at least 16 in. from the front of the fuel opening.

For Canada: Hearth must extend at least 18 in (450.0 mm) from the front of the fuel opening.

Keep in mind that this type of a installation will make it difficult to change speeds on the

blower frequently. We recommend picking a blower speed and sticking with it, since

adjusting the blower will be difficult because of the tight installation.

WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADJUST BLOWER DURING OPERATION. SKIN BURNS

MAY OCCUR WHEN MAKING CONTACT WITH THE UNIT. WAIT FOR UNIT TO COMPLETELY

COOL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO ADJUST BLOWER.

Inspect your hearth to be sure it is constructed of a noncombustible material such as brick or

stone. Do not install this stove on a hearth that is constructed of wood framework that is covered

by brick or stone and do not install this unit in a zero (0) clearance fireplace. The manufacturer will

not be held responsible for an accident resulting from this stove being installed on a hearth

constructed of a combustible material.

Inspect your fireplace to ensure it is in proper working order and free of any obstructions.

Prior to installation, remove the existing damper or wire it to fasten it open.

Venting Your Stove - Direct Connect

When this unit is direct connected it will require six inch (6”) diameter 24 gauge pipe from the stove

through the damper opening. (NOTE: The chimney connector must be attached to the appliance

with a minimum of three (3) screws, and 3 screws should be used to attach each adjoining

section.)

We highly recommend having the chimney fully lined with a 6 inch liner to ensure proper draft. This

will make it necessary to block off the open area on both sides of the pipe that passes through the

damper opening, which can be done with sheet metal or by packing flame retardant fiberglass

insulation in the open areas (no paper or combustibles). You must be sure the draft from the

chimney is being pulled through the stove, and not around the connector pipe. .

We highly recommend you have this done by a professional. You should also contact your local

authorities to be sure you are following all codes.
