A . Design, Installation & Location Considerations
1. Appliance Location
NOTICE: Check building codes prior to installation.
• InstallationMUSTcomplywithlocal,regional,stateand
nationalcodesandregulations.
• Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, re
ofcialsorauthoritieshavingjurisdictionoverrestrictions,
installationinspectionandpermits.
Itisagoodideatoplanyourinstallationonpaper,usingexact
measurements for clearances and oor protection, before
actuallybeginningtheinstallation.Locationoftheappliance
andchimneywillaffectperformance.
Considerationmustbegivento:
• Safety,convenience,trafcow
• Placementofthechimneyandchimneyconnectorandto
minimizetheuseofchimneyoffsets.
• Placetheappliancewheretherewillbeaclearpassage
foraListedchimneythroughtheceilingandroof(vertical)
orthroughexteriorwall(horizontal).
• Installingtherequiredoutsideairkitwillaffectthelocation
oftheventtermination.
Whenlocatingventandventingtermination,theidealloca-
tionistoventaboverooflinewhenpossible.Thisminimizes
theaffectsofwindloading.
Since pellet exhaust can contain ash, soot or sparks, you
mustconsiderthelocationof:
• Windows
• AirIntakes
• AirConditioner
• Overhang,softs,porchroofs,adjacentwalls
• Landscaping,vegetation
• Horizontalorverticalventtermination
2. Floor Support
The supporting oor under the appliance must be able to
handletheweightoftheappliance,fuelloadandtheweight
ofthechimney.
Ensure that your oor will support these weights prior to
installation. Add sufcient additional support to meet this
weightrequirementpriortoinstallation.
WARNING
Risk of Fire
Damagedpartscouldimpairsafeoperation.Do

CAUTION
Ifburningshelledeldcorn,youmustuseapprovedvent-
ing specically designed for corn to prevent corrosion
or degradation.  Follow the instructions from the venting
manufacturer.

B. Avoiding Smoke and Odors
Negative Pressure, Shut-Down and Electrical Power
Failure
To reduce the probability of back-drafting or burn-back in
thepelletapplianceduringpowerfailureorshutdowncon-
ditions, it must be able to draft naturally without exhaust
bloweroperation.
Negativepressureinthehousewillresistthisnaturaldraftif
notaccountedforinthepelletapplianceinstallation.
Heatrisesinthehouseandleaksoutatupperlevels.This
airmustbereplacedwithcoldairfromoutdoorswhichows
intolowerlevelsofthehouse.
Ventsandchimneysintobasementsandlowerlevelsofthe
house can become the conduit for air supply and reverse
undertheseconditions.
Outside Air
Anoutsideairkitis recommendedinallinstallations. The
OutsideAirKitmustbeorderedseparately.
Pernationalbuildingcodes,considerationmustbegivento
combustionairsupplytoallcombustionappliances.Failure
tosupplyadequatecombustionairforallappliancedemands
mayleadtobackdraftingofthoseandotherappliances.
Whentheapplianceisroofvented(stronglyrecommended):
Theairintakeisbestlocatedontheexteriorwalloriented
towardstheprevailingwinddirectionduringtheheating
season.
Whentheapplianceisside-wallvented:
Theairintakeisbestlocatedonthesameexteriorwallas
theexhaustventoutletandlocatedloweronthewallthan
theexhaustventoutlet.
Theoutsideairsupplykitcansupplymostofthedemandsof
thepelletappliance,butconsiderationmustbegiventothe
totalhousedemand.
Housedemandmayconsumetheairneededfortheappli-
ance.Itmaybenecessarytoaddadditionalventilationto
thespaceinwhichthepelletapplianceislocated.
ConsultwithyourlocalHVACprofessionaltodeterminethe
ventilationdemandsforyourhouse.
Vent Congurations
To reduce probability of reverse drafting during shut-down
conditions Hearth & Home Technologies strongly recom-
mends:
 • Installingthepelletventwithaminimumverticalrunof
5feet(1.52m).Preferablyterminatingabovetheroof
line.
 • Installingtheoutsideairkitatleast4feet(1.22m)below
theventtermination.
Topreventsootdamagetoexteriorwallsofthehouseandto
preventre-entryofsootorashintothehouse:
 • Maintain specied clearances to windows, doors and
airinlets,includingairconditioners.
 • Vents should not be placed below ventilated softs.
Runtheventabovetheroof.
 • Avoidventingintoalcovelocations.
 • Ventsshouldnotterminateunderoverhangs,decksor
ontocoveredporches.
 • Maintain minimum clearance of 12 inches (305mm)
from the vent termination to the exterior wall.  If you

C. Negative Pressure
Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air avail-
ablefortheappliancetooperateproperly.Itcanbestrongest
inlowerlevelsofthehouse.
Causesinclude:
• Exhaustfans(kitchen,bath,etc.)
• Rangehoods
• Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water
appliancesandothercombustionappliances
• Clothesdryers
• Locationofreturn-airventstofurnaceorairconditioning
• ImbalancesoftheHVACairhandlingsystem
• Upperlevelairleakssuchas:
 - Recessedlighting
 - Attichatch
 - Ductleaks
Tominimizetheeffectsofnegativeairpressure:
• Installtheoutsideairkitwiththeintakefacingprevailing
windsduringtheheatingseason
• Ensureadequateoutdoorairforallcombustionappliances
andexhaustequipment
• Ensurefurnaceandairconditioningreturnventsarenot
locatedintheimmediatevicinityoftheappliance
• Avoid installing the appliance near doors, walkways or

ingenvelope.Thishelpstoproducemoredraft,especially
duringlightinganddie-downofthere.
Considerationsforsuccessfuldraftinclude:
• Preventingnegativepressure
• Locationofapplianceandchimney
