P43 Pellet Stove
This method provides excellent venting for 
normal operation. This method also provides natural 
draft in the event of a power failure. If the chimney 
condition is questionable* you may want to install a 
liner as in method #7. 
In some places in the US and Canada it is required 
that the vent pipe extend all the way to the top of the 
chimney.
*The chimney should be inspected and cleaned before 
installing your stove. If you discover that the chimney 
does not have a clay tile liner or has cracks or aking of 
the tile liner you will need to install a stainless steel liner 
within the chimney. In most cases the inside diameter 
of this liner should be 4".  Either exible or rigid liner 
may be used for this purpose. Refer to Method 6 & 7.
Be sure to design the venting so that it can be easily 
cleaned.

The chimney should be sealed at the damper us-
ing a steel plate. Kaowool, mineral wool or an equiva-
lent  non-combustible  insulation  is  recommended  to 
be installed on top of the sealing plate to reduce the 
possibility of condensation. The connector pipe should 
extend through the smoke chamber to the base or into 
the rst ue tile. 
Be sure  to  design  the venting so that it  can  be 
easily cleaned.
