NOTICE: Check building codes prior to installation.
1. Appliance Location
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations.
• Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, re
o󰀩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 a󰀨ect performance.
Consideration must be given to:
• Safety, convenience, tra󰀩c ow
• Placement of the chimney and chimney connector and to
minimize the use of chimney o󰀨sets.
• 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 a󰀨ect the location
of the vent termination.
When locating vent and venting termination, the ideal
location is to vent above roof line when possible. This
minimizes the a󰀨ects of wind loading.
22Getting Started
Since pellet exhaust can contain ash, soot or sparks, you
must consider the location of:
• Windows
• Air Intakes
• Air Conditioner
• Overhang, so󰀩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 su󰀩cient additional support to meet this
weight requirement prior to installation. The weight of the
appliance is 510 lbs with a full load of fuel the max weight
is 557 lbs
WARNING
Risk of Fire.
Damaged parts could impair safe operation.

- Channel Locks
- Hammer
- Phillips Screwdriver
- Tape Measure
- Plumb Line
- 1/4” Self-Tapping Screws
- Framing Material
- Hi-temp Caulking Material
- Gloves
