DT2010539-03 1.2 Fresh air intake To ensure trouble-free operation the stove must have the necessary air available for combustion and this is provided through the fresh air intake. Fig. 2 English The fresh air intake must: -- have a total free cross section at least equal to the size given in the paragraph “TECHNICAL DATA”; -- be protected by a grille or suitable guard provided it does not reduce the minimum recommended section; -- be in a position whereby it cannot be obstructed.
DT2010032-00 1.5 Capacity load of the floor Check the load-bearing capacity of the floor, referring to the weight of the product given in the paragraph “TECHNICAL DATA”. If the floor does not have a suitable load-bearing capacity, adequate countermeasures must be taken. DT2011553-02 Fig.
DT2010229-05 1.7 Flueway -- Dryer vent -- Gas appliance (Type B) vent -- PVC (plastic) pipe -- Single wall stove pipe. aaThe pellet stove is not the same as other stoves. It has a forced draught of flue gas by a fan, which keeps the firebox in a vacuum and the entire flueway slightly pressurised. For this reason the flue must be completely airtight and correctly installed to ensure both trouble-free operation and user safety.
Where 4” diameter pipe must be used, connect it to the stove flue outlet with a 3” union-tee then use a 3” – 4” adaptor (Fig. 8). Fig. 8 Ø 4" English Ø 3" PELLET STOVE TEE W/TEE CAP DT2033009-00 Union-tee The use of this type of fitting must allow for the collection of condensate mixed with soot, which builds up inside the pipe. It must also permit periodic cleaning of the flue without the need to disassemble the pipes. Single or double clean-out tees may be used.
DT2010230-03 1.8 Interior vent installation General vent layout is shown in figure and the procedure is as follows: -- Position the appliance in desired location according to appliance installation requirements. -- Use a plumb line to determine location of PL Vent penetration of ceiling. -- Cut hole in ceiling and frame to appropriate opening size. Framing material shall be the same as that of adjacent joist material. -- Install Black Ceiling Support from below joist level and fasten with 4 – 1.
DT2010232-02 1.9 Connecting to a conventional chimney English The stove may be connected to an existing Class A chimney or a masonry chimney which meets the minimum requirements of NFPA 211. Using this kind of installation the pellet stove is able to draft naturally without exhaust blower operation (failure), reducing the probability of burn-back and back-drafting. Fig. 12 aaCheck that the connection to the flueway is gas/smoke-tight, since the appliance operates in a vacuum.
DT2010232-02 1.10 Installing into an existing firebox chimney Fig. 15 English This kind of installation also provides natural draft in the event of a power failure. When installing as a hearth mount stove into a firebox the unit must either be relined, terminating above the chimney chase top, or positively connected to the existing chimney system using a block off plate (Fig. 15-16). An approved flex liner of PL vent must be used.
This configuration will help prevent blockage of vent by snow drifts. Also the minimum vertical run of 5 feet (1,5 m) ensures the ventilation of the exhaust in the event of a power failure, and allow for easier cleaning through cleanout on tee. English aaCertain local code restrictions may apply. Check with Local Officials first before installing. aaStrictly observe the PL Vent manufacturer’s safety specifications when using wall pass through.
The clearance to a door, window or cavity must be at least: -- 1.5’ (458 mm) below; -- 1.5’ (458 mm) horizontally; -- 9’’ (230 mm) above. • The exhaust termination location (Fig. 20) must be at least: -- 1’ (305 mm) above the ground level. Attention : the minimum vertical rise shall always be not less than 5’ (1.5 m). A flue at 1’ above ground is not enfant safe: we strongly reccomend that the exhaust termination of flue be raised another 4’ to avoid injury. -- 7’ (2.
