2Getting Started
A . Design, Installation & Location
Considerations
1. Appliance Location
Consideration must be given to safety, convenience, traffic
flow, and the fact that the appliance will need a chimney and
chimney connector. It is a good idea to plan your installation
on paper, using exact measurements for clearances and
floor protection, before actually beginning the installation. If
you are not using an existing chimney, place the appliance
where there will be a clear passage for a factory-built listed
chimney through the ceiling and roof.
Check with your local building code agency before you
begin your installation. Be sure local building codes do not
supersede UL specifications and always obtain a building
permit so that insurance protection benefits cannot be
unexpectedly cancelled. If any assistance is required during
installation, please contact your local dealer.
We recommend that a qualified building inspector and your
insurance company representative review your plans before
and after installation.
2. Thermostat Location
The thermostat’s location will have some effect on the
appliance’s operation. When the thermostat is located close
to the appliance, it may require a slightly higher temperature
setting to keep the rest of the house comfortable. If the
thermostat location is in an adjacent room or on a different
floor level, you will notice higher temperatures near the
appliance.
B. Fire Safety
Maintain the designated clearances to combustibles.
Insulation must not touch the chimney. You must maintain
the designated air space clearance around the chimney.
This space around a chimney is necessary to allow
natural heat removal from the area. Insulation in this
space will cause a heat buildup, which may ignite wood
framing. NOTE: Clearances may only be reduced by
means approved by the regulatory authority having
jurisdiction.
To provide reasonable fire safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
1. Install at least one smoke detector on each floor of
your home to ensure your safety. They should be
located away from the heating appliance and close
to the sleeping areas. Follow the smoke detector
manufacturer’s placement and installation instructions,
and be sure to maintain regularly.
2. A conveniently located Class A fire extinguisher
to contend with small fires resulting from burning
embers.
3. A practiced evacuation plan, consisting of at least
2 escape routes.
4. A plan to deal with a hopper fire as follows:
In the event of a hopper fire:
A. Notify fire department
B. Prepare occupants for immediate evacuation.
C. Close all openings into the appliance.
D. While awaiting fire department, watch for ignition
of adjacent combustibles from overheated vent
pipe, hot embers or sparks from the chimney.
E. Pour a bucket of water into the appliance
hopper.
CAUTION
• Do NOT connect this unit to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance.
• Do NOT connect to any air distributon duct or system. Fire Hazard.
WARNING
• Do not operate appliance before reading
and understanding operating instructions.
• Failure to operate appliance properly may
cause a house fire.

Do not terminate vent in any enclosed or semi-enclosed
area such as a carport, garage, attic, crawl space, under a
sun deck or porch, narrow walkway or closely fenced area,
or any location that can build up a concentration of fumes
such as a stairwell, covered breezeway, etc.
CAUTION
Vent surfaces get HOT, can cause burns if
touched. Noncombustible shielding or guards
may be required.
WARNING
A. Chimney and Exhaust Connection
1. Chimney & Connector: Use 3 or 4 inch (76-102mm)
diameter type "L" or "PL" venting system. It can be
vented vertically or horizontally.
2. Mobile Home: Approved for all listed pellet vent. If
using the 3 inch (76mm) vertical Top Vent Adapter Kit
or the 3 to 6 inch (76-152mm) Top Vent Offset Adapter,
use listed double wall flue connector. A Quadra-Fire
Outside Air Kit must be used with manufactured home
installations.
3. Residential: The 3 inch (76mm) vertical Top Vent
Adapter Kit and the 3 to 6 inch (76-152mm) Top Vent
Offset Adapter are tested to use 24 gauge single wall
flue connector or listed double wall flue connector to
Class A listed metal chimneys, or masonry chimneys
meeting Internationalt Conference of Building Officials
(ICBO )standards for solid fuel appliances.
4. INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE
VENT MANUFACTURER.
5. Secure exhaust venting system to the appliance with at
least 3 screws. Also secure all connector pipe joints with
at least 3 screws through each joint.
NOTE: All pipe must be welded seam pipe whenever
possible. Seal pipe joints with high temperature silicone
(500°F [260°C] minimum rated only).
NOTE: If burning shelled field corn, you must use
approved venting specifically designed for corn. Follow
the instructions from the venting manufacturer.
Fire Hazard.
• Only LISTED venting components may be
used.
• NO OTHER vent components may be used.
Substitute or damaged vent components may
impair safe operation.
WARNING
B. Venting Termination Requirements
1. Termination must exhaust above air inlet elevation. It is
recommended that at least 60 inches (1524mm) of verti-
cal pipe be installed when appliance is vented directly
through a wall. This will create a natural draft, which will
help prevent the possibility of smoke or odor venting into
the home during a power outage. It will also keep exhaust
from causing a nuisance or hazard by exposing people or
shrubs to high temperatures. The safest and preferred
venting method is to extend the vent vertically through the
roof.
2. Distance from doors and opening windows, or gravity or
ventilation air inlets into building:
a. Not less than 48 inches (1219mm) below;
b. Not less than 48 inches (1219mm) horizontally from;
c. Not less than 12 inches (305mm) above.
3. Distance from permanently closed windows:,
a. Not less than 12 inches (305) below; horizonatlly from
or above.
4. Distance between bottom of termination and grade should
be 24 inches (610mm) minimum. This is conditional upon
plants in the area, and nature of grade surface. The grade
surface must be a noncombustible material (i.e., rock, dirt).
The grade surface must not be lawn. Distance between
bottom of termination and public walkway should be 84
inches (2134mm) minimum.
5. Distance to combustible materials must be 24 inches
(610mm) minimum. This includes adjacent buildings,
fences, protruding parts of the structure, roof overhang,
plants and shrubs, etc.
6. Termination Cap Location (Home Electrical Service)
• Side-to-side clearance is to be the same as minimum
clearance to vinyl inside corners.
• Clearance of a termination cap below electrical service
shall be the same as minimum clearance to vinyl sof-
fits.
• Clearance of a termination cap above electrical service
will be 12 inches minimum.
• Location of the vent termination must not obstruct or
interfere with access to the electrical service.

The chart will help you in determing proper vent-
ing size according to the equivalent feet of pipe
calcuated above and the altitude above sea level
of this installation. See Figure 11.2.
Locate the calculated equivalent feet of pipe on
the vertical left side of the chart. Move to the
right horizontally on the chart until you reach
your altitude above sea level.
If you fall below the diagonal line, 3 or 4 inch (76
to 102mm) pipe may be used. If it is anywhere
above the diagonal line, a 4 inch (102mm) diam-
eter pipe is required.
The chart reveals that a 90° elbow is 5 times as
restrictive to the flow of exhaust gases under
positive pressure as 1 foot of horizontal pipe, and
a foot of horizontal pipe is twice as restrictive as
a foot of vertical pipe.

4 PIECE LOG SET INSTALLATION
OPTIONAL TOP LOG
Figure 19.2
Figure 19.3
CAUTION
Logs are FRAGILE. Use extreme care when handling or
cleaning logs.
NOTE:
Due to the abrasive nature of a pellet appliance fire, the
logs are not covered under warranty. Any placement varia-
tion other than shown here can cause excessive heat and
shall void the appliance warranty.
1. Place the right rear log as shown. There is a notch in the
bottom of the log for clearance for the thermocouple and
thermocouple cover (ceramic protection tube). Figure
19.1
2. Continue placing the last 3 logs around the firepot as
show in Figures 19.2, 19.3 and 19.4. Be careful not to
block the drop tube in the back of the firebox where pel-
lets feed into the firepot.
Place the top log over the firepot. It will be about 2-
1/2 inches (64mm) above the firepot when in place.
Notice the position of the top log as it rests on the 3
logs in a stable position to prevent it from falling into
the firepot. The charred area on the back of the top
log faces the back, not the front. Figure 19.5
