P43 Pellet Stove
Place the stove on a noncombustible oor or on a oor protec-
tor that extends a minimum of 6 inches (152mm) to the front,
(measured from the glass) 6 inches (152mm) to the sides and
1 inch to the rear of the hopper. It is also recommended that
oor protection be installed under any horizontal venting and
extending 2 inches beyond the vent measurement. Material
used for oor protection must have a k-factor of 2.24 or lower.
Example: 1" thickness of Durock® is rated at 1.92 k per inch,
which would meet the requirement.
Place the stove away from combustible walls at least as far
as shown in Figures 3,4 and 5. Note the difference in side wall
clearance with and without side shields.
Connect the power cord to a 120 V.A.C. 60Hz grounded
receptacle. (A surge protector is recommended to protect the
circuit board.) Also be sure that the polarity of the outlet that
the stove is plugged into is correct.
Prior to installing the ue pipe, connect a draft meter. (The
draft meter must have a minimum range of 0 to -0.5 Inches
Water Column.) Record the rst reading. Connect ue pipe
to stove and be sure all doors and windows in the home are
closed. Record the second draft reading_______. If the second
reading is more than .05" lower than the rst reading, check for
possible restrictions in the venting conguration or the need
for outside air (see page 9). For more information on the draft
test procedure, refer to Page 21.
When installing this unit in a mobile home, several require-
ments must be followed:
1. The unit must be bolted to the oor. This can be done with
1/4" lag screws through the 2 holes in the base plate.
2. The unit must also be connected to outside air. See page
9.
3. Floor protection and clearances must be followed as
shown.
4. Unit must be grounded to the metal frame of the mobile
home.
Due to high temperatures, the stove should be placed out of
trafc and away from furniture and draperies.
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high
surface temperatures and should stay away to avoid burns to
skin and/or clothing.
Young children should be carefully supervised when they are
in the same room as the stove.
Clothing and other ammable materials should not be placed
on or near this unit.
