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.
Put attention:some areas require that a liner must be always installed
to the top of the flue, as shown in figure 16.
A chimney system with known drafting problems may require
a liner, which may also need to be insulated to keep vent
system warm in cold chimney environment.
A cap shall be installed on the chimney to keep out rain.
Strictly observe the PL Vent manufacturer's safety
specifications.
INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT
MANUFACTURER.
Strictly use listed pellet vent pipe fittings.
Ensure that all installation work is carried out to professional
standards
When terminating the exhaust system under the houses eaves, (Fig. 17)
the following requirements shall be fulfilled:
- in selecting locations for appliance and vent, take into consideration
the NPFA 211 6-3.5 rule for distance of exit terminal from window
and openings;
- run the ventvertically upthe wall,ensuring to maintain a minimum of
3"clearancebetweenthewallandvent;
- a wall band must be installed just above the tee and at least every 6'
of vent rise or,if the rise is inferior, at the end of the vertical run;
- after a rise of at least 5' (1.5 m), install a 90° elbow aimed out from
the building wall;
- attach a 45° elbow to the 90° elbow, aiming the second elbow down
toward the ground. Terminate the vent with a collar with screen
fastenedtothe45°elbow;
- the end of the vent pipe system must be at least twelve inches (12")
from the wall and 24" below the eave.
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.
-Certain local code restrictions may apply.
Check with Local Officials first before
installing.
