Mountain Series Installation and Operation Manual
oVen VentinG
The following are the manufacturer’s recommendations for venting the Wood Stone MS (Mountain Series) RFG-IR-W
ovens. It is never appropriate to use “B vent” in any part of an exhaust system connected to a Wood Stone oven. All duct
material must be manufactured to the specifications of a grease duct. This is a wood/gas combination oven and must be
vented as a solid fuel piece of equipment. Due to the possibility of sparks entering the system, exhaust systems serving
solid fuel equipment must be vented separately from other non-solid fuel equipment. The duct serving this oven should
be inspected at least twice a month during the first two months of operation, to establish rate of creosote buildup and
necessary cleaning schedule. Typically, we recommend monthly cleaning for all solid fuel ovens. Submit your venting plans
to your local authorities before proceeding with your installation, as there may be additional requirements in your area.
Direct Connection:1. A listed building heating appliance chimney, also listed as a grease duct as described in NFPA
96, connected directly to the oven flue collar and provided with a power ventilator listed for restaurant appliance
exhaust. The power ventilator should be rated for a minimum of 450° F. Wood Stone does not recommend the
use of an in-line fan. A field built grease duct, constructed and installed to the specifications of a grease duct as
detailed in NFPA 96 or the International Mechanical Code, may also be used.
A static pressure of -0.14 inches water column is necessary at the oven flue collar to ensure that flue gas
temperatures do not exceed 450° Fahrenheit at the fan inlet. This measurement may be taken by inserting the
probe of the magnahelic gauge through the oven doorway, upwards to the oven flue collar.
The CFM required to attain this static pressure will depend on the configuration of your particular installation
but will probably be between 500 and 700 CFM. NOTE: Double door ovens (Models ending in DD), have two flue
collars, both must be connected and a static pressure of -0.14 inches must be maintained at each collar. Solid fuel
burning ovens must be vented separately from non-solid fuel burning equipment.
NOTE: If your MS-5, MS-6, or MS-7 oven is ordered from Wood Stone without a hood, it will have a round flue
adapter installed to facilitate direct connection to a round duct. If the oven is to be installed under a hood, it MAY
be necessary to remove the round adapter to properly position the hood. This is done by removing the screws that
attach the adapter to the oven. Please contact Wood Stone if you have any questions.
NOTE: MS-4 ovens come standard with a round 8" O.D. collar and do not
require the flue adapter for a direct connection.
Install venting system in accordance with the duct manufacturer's instructions and in accordance with all local
codes. All field built components should be built to the applicable codes and standards and are subject to the
approval of the authority having jurisdiction.
