Soot inspection
We recommend that the flue must have a chamber for collecting solid matter and any
condensate located below the connection and which may be easily inspected by means of an
airtight door. (Fig. 1)
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.
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.

Outside combustion air
It is recommended that the stove be connected to an outside source of combustion air
under certain conditions (negative pressure).
To install outside air use any 2" (5 cm) I.D. flexible metal hose or rigid metal pipe (conduit).
It must be connected around (NOT INSIDE) the combustion air inlet tube (Fig. 3).
Increase the outside air pipe diameter to 3" (76 mm) for runs over 15 ft (4.5 m) and
elevation over 4 ft (1 m).
Long runs should be avoided.
Be careful not to pinch or bend the outside air pipe with too small a radius.
Outside Air Pipe may be terminated flush with the outside wall but should be protected from
wind and weather by a hood.
The outside air pipe must terminate above the maximum snow line and below the exhaust
vent outlet.
Take care not to draw cold air past water pipes that may freeze.
