Black Background with bare metal for print-adhesive backed, metal plate.
Floor protector
The P43 Pellet Stove has huge features in a small package, giving you 0 to 43,000 BTU when you need it,
automatically. You basically need to set your desired room temperature and ll the hopper. With the P43 you will
notice even heat throughout your zone and a level of convenience you never thought possible.
The P43 epitomizes the capability of Harman Pellet Stoves, taking advantage of Harman’s 20+ years of pellet
stove design, technology and manufacturing. This 43,000 BTU stove has the smartest controls coupled with
minimal maintenance. The P43's output is managed by a microprocessor that senses the room temperature and
the re temperature with tiny thermistor probes and then determines the best feed rate for your heating demand.
This improved and smarter control also has a diagnostic port which allows a service representative to attach an
external display showing live working data for ease in troubleshooting.
The platinum combination is Harman’s Patented Feeder & Burn Pot, and ESP Control which have been developed
to their highest state. These features work together to allow amazing heat output with little regard for fuel quality.

Installation
Installing
Place the stove on a noncombustible type oor or oor protector
that extends a minimum of 6 inches (152mm) to the front of the
load door opening, 6 inches (152mm) to the sides of the door
opening, and 6 inches to the rear. Floor protection must also
extend 2 inches (51mm) beyond each side of any horizontal ue
pipe. The minimum oor protector material is 20 gauge sheet
metal. Other oor protector materials are ceramic tile, stone,
brick, etc.
NOTE for Canadian installation only: Per ULC-S627-00,
If installed on a combustible floor, the need to provide a
noncombustible oor protector covering the area beneath the
space heater and extending at least 17.72" (450mm) on the ring
side and at least 7.87" (200mm) on the other sides.
In Canada, you may follow smaller U.S. oor protection
requirements ONLY if the user agrees to completely shut-
down the appliance, and allow it to cool to where all re is
extinguished and the combustion blower and its indicator
light shuts off, prior to opening the rebox door or ash door.
Place the stove away from combustible walls at least as far as
shown in Figures 3 and 4. Please note the difference in side wall
clearance with and without side shields.
Note that the clearances shown are minimum for safety but
do not leave much room for access when cleaning or servicing.
Please take this into account when placing the stove.
Connect the power cord to a 120 V.A.C. 60Hz grounded
receptacle. (A surge protector is recommended to protect the
circuit board.) Also be sure that the polarity of the outlet that the
stove is plugged into is correct.
Prior to installing the ue pipe, connect a draft meter. (The
draft meter must have a minimum range of 0 - .5") Record the
rst reading. Connect ue pipe to stove and be sure all doors
and windows in the home are closed. Record the second draft
reading_______. If the second reading is more than .05" lower
than the rst reading, check for possible restrictions or the need
for outside air (see page 10). For more information on the draft
test procedure, refer to Page 21.
Mobile Home Installation
When installing this unit in a mobile home, several requirements
must be followed:
1. The unit must be bolted to the oor. This can be done with 1/4"
lag screws through the 2 holes in the base plate.
2. The unit must also be connected to outside air. See page 10.
3. Floor protection and clearances must be followed as shown.
4. Unit must be grounded to the metal frame of the mobile home.
CAUTION: This appliance must be vented to the outside.
Due to high temperatures, the stove should be placed out of
trafc and away from furniture and draperies.
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high
surface temperatures and should stay away to avoid burns to
skin and/or clothing.
Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in
the same room as the stove.
Clothing and other ammable materials should not be placed
on or near this unit.

Vent Pipe
Pellet venting pipe (known as PL vent) is constructed of two
layers with air space between the layers. This air space acts
as an insulator and reduces the outside surface temperature
to allow a clearance to combustibles of 1 to 3 inches. The
sections of pipe lock together to form an air tight seal in
most cases. However, in some cases a perfect seal is not
achieved. For this reason and the fact that the unit operates
with a positive vent pressure we specify that the joints
also be sealed with high temp (RTV) silicone. Aluminum
tape can also be used for any joint that is 1ft. or more from
the outlet of the stove.

Venting
A combustion blower is used to extract the combustion
gases from the rebox. This causes a negative pressure in
the rebox and a positive pressure in the venting system as
shown in Fig. 7. The longer the vent pipe and more elbows
used in the system, the greater the ow resistance. Because
of these facts we recommend using as few elbows as possible
and 15 feet or less of vent pipe. The maximum horizontal
run should not exceed 48". If more than 15 feet of pipe is
needed, the interior diameter should be increased from 3" to
4" because a larger pipe causes less ow resistance. Be sure
to use approved pellet vent pipe wall and ceiling pass-
through ttings to go through combustible walls and
ceilings. All joints for connector pipe must be fastened
with a minimum of three screws and a termination cap
must be installed. Follow pellet vent manufacturer
instructions for properly securing each pellet vent joint.
The pellet starting collar must be secured to the unit's
ue collar.
NOTE: Simpson DuraVent PelletVent Pro Harman Adapter
Part #3PVP-ADHB and PelletVent Pro Harman Adapter
Increaser Part #3PVP-X4ADHB are highly recommended
to be installed on the starter collar to insure a proper
pipe connection to the unit.

DAMAGE AND/OR INJURY MAY RESULT.
Avoiding Smoke and Odors
Negative Pressure, Shut-down, and Power Failure:
To reduce the probability of back-drafting or burn-back in
the pellet burning appliance during power failure or shutdown conditions, the stove 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:
Hearth & Home Technologies strongly recommends
attaching outside air in all installations, especially lower
level and main oor locations.

Venting
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 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.
When the appliance is roof vented: The air intake is
best located on the exterior wall oriented towards the
prevailing wind direction during the heating season.
The outside air connection will supply the demands of
the pellet appliance, but consideration must be given to
the total house demand. House demand may consume
some air needed for the stove, especially during a power
failure. 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.
To install outside air use 2 3/8" I.D. non-combustible
ex pipe. There is a break-away hole on the rear
Direct Vent Wall Passthrough Kit
(part #1-00-677077)
panel of the P43 stove which must be removed before
connecting the ex pipe. The pipe should be run outside
and terminate to the side or below the vent pipe outlet
so the ue outlet is more than 12" from the inlet cover.
The maximum length run of this pipe is 15 feet. If a
longer run is needed the size must be increased to 3".
Inlet cover, part number 1-10-08542 should be used to
keep birds, rodents, etc.out of the pipe.
You may choose to use the optional Direct Vent Wall
Passthrough Kit (part #1-00-677077) which incorporates
the venting passthrough and outside air inlet into one
component.
Vent Congurations:
To reduce probability of reverse drafting during shut-down conditions, Hearth & Home Technologies strongly
recommends:
• Installing the pellet vent with a minimum vertical run of ve feet, preferably terminating above the roof line.
• Installing the outside air intake at least four feet 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 specied clearances to windows, doors, and air inlets, including air conditioners.
• Vents should not be placed below ventilated softs. 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 from the vent termination to the exterior wall. If you see deposits
developing on the wall, you may need to extend this distance to accommodate your installation conditions.
Hearth & Home Technologies assumes no responsibility for, nor does the warranty extend to, smoke
damage caused by reverse drafting of pellet appliances under shut-down or power failure conditions.

#1 Preferred method
This method provides excellent venting for normal
operation and allows the stove to be installed closest
to the wall. Two inches from the wall is safe; however,
four inches allows better access to remove the rear
panel. The vertical portion of the vent should be three
to ve feet high. This vertical section will help provide
natural draft in the event of a power failure.
Note: Do not place joints within wall pass-throughs.

#2 Preferred method
This method also provides excellent venting for normal
operation but requires the stove to be installed farther
from the wall. The vertical portion of the vent should
be three to ve feet high and at least three inches from
a combustible wall. This vertical section will provide
natural draft in the event of a power failure.
If the stove is installed below grade be sure the vent
termination is at least 18" above grade. The outlet must
also be 1 foot from the house/building.
Note: Do not place joints within wall pass-throughs.
CAUTION
Keep combustible materials (such as grass,
leaves, etc.) at least 3 feet away from the ue
outlet on the outside of the building.

#4 Installing into an existing chimney
This method provides excellent venting for normal
operation. This method also provides natural draft in
the event of a power failure. If the chimney condition
is questionable* you may want to install a liner as in
method #7.
In some places in the US and Canada it is required
that the vent pipe extend all the way to the top of the
chimney.
*The chimney should be inspected and cleaned before
installing your stove. If you discover that the chimney
does not have a clay tile liner or has cracks or aking of
the tile liner you will need to install a stainless steel liner
within the chimney. In most cases the inside diameter
of this liner should be 4". Either exible or rigid liner
may be used for this purpose. Refer to Method 6 & 7.
Be sure to design the venting so that it can be easily
cleaned.

The chimney should be sealed at the damper using a
steel plate. Kaowool, mineral wool or an equivalent noncombustible insulation is recommended to be installed
on top of the sealing plate to reduce the possibility
of condensation. The connector pipe should extend
through the smoke chamber to the base or into the
rst ue tile.
Be sure to design the venting so that it can be easily
cleaned.
