Install Guide
2 Getting Started
A. Design and Installation Considerations
Before installing, determine the following:
• Type of chimney connector to be used
- Single wall, 6 inch (152mm) diameter, stainless
steel, or
- Double wall, 6 inch (152mm) diameter, stainless
steel
• Consult page 28 for clearances to combustibles
• Power outlet located close by for optional blower
Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent appliances
successfully. When a appliance is drafting successfully, all
combustion byproducts are exiting the home through the
chimney.
Considerations for successful draft include:
• Preventing negative pressure
• Location of appliance and chimney
To be sure that your appliance burns properly:
• During a low burn, the chimney draft (static pressure)
should be approximately -.04 inch water column (W.C.)
• During a high burn the chimney draft should be
approximately -.10 inch (W.C.)
• Measure the W.C at 6 inches (152mm) above the top
of the appliance after one hour of operation at each
burn setting.
B. Draft
Check building codes prior to installation.
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state
and national codes and regulations.
• Consult insurance carrier, local building, re ofcials
or authorities having jurisdiction about restrictions,
installation inspection, and permits.
CAUTION
WARNING
Asphyxiation Risk.
• Do NOT connect this appliance to a
chimney ue servicing another appliance.
• Do NOT connect to any air distribution duct
or system.
May allow ue gases to enter the house.
NOTICE: Hearth & Home Technologies assumes no
responsibility for the improper performance of
the appliance system caused by:
• Inadequate draft due to environmental conditions
• Down drafts
• Tight sealing construction of the structure
• Mechanical exhausting devices
• Over drafting caused by excessive chimney heights
• Ideal performance is with height of chimney between
14-16 feet (4.26-4.88m) measured from the base of
the appliance.
