. Design, Installation & Location
Getting Started
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
in a location to maintain a clear passage for the installation
of any listed and approved pellet venting system. This appliance may be vented vertically or horizontally.
Maintain specified vent clearance to comubstible requirements listed by the pellet manufactures venting instructions
and all clearance to combustivles listed in this manual.
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. Evacuate the house immediately.
b. Notify fire department.
CAUTION
• Do NOT connect this unit to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance.
• Do NOT connect to any air distribution duct or system.

F. Floor Protection
1. Zero Clearance Installations*
It is necessary to install a floor protection of non-combustible material with a R value of 3.0 (1 inch [25mm] minimum
thickness with a “k” value of 0.58) or a 1 inch (25mm) air
space between insert base and hearth.
2. Non-Zero Clearance Installations*
A non-combustible floor protector is required with a minimum R value of 3.0 (1 inch [25mm] minimum thickness with
a “k” value of 0.58) extending 6 inches (153mm) in front of
the insert and 8 inches (203mm) to each side of the door
opening.
* See alternate floor protection worksheet.
G. Calculating Alternate Floor Protection Material
Thermal Conductivity: k value
The k value indicates the amount of heat (in BTU’s) that will flow
in 1 hour through 1 square foot of a uniform material 1 inch thick
for each degree (F) of temperature difference from one side of
the material to the other. The LOWER the k factor means less
heat is being conducted through the non-combustible material to
the combustible material beneath it. The k value of a material
must be equal or smaller then the required k value to be acceptable.
(BTU) (inch)
(foot
Thermal Resistance: R value
The R value is a measure of a material’s resistance to heat
transfer. R value is convenient when more than one material is used since you can add the R values together, whereas
you can not do this for k value. The HIGHER the R factor
means less heat is being conducted through the non-combustible material to the combustible material beneath it. The
R value of a material must be equal or larger then the required R value to be acceptable.
Converting k to R:
Divide 1 by k and multiply the results times the thickness in inches of the material.
R = 1/k x inches of thickness
Converting R to k:
Divide the inches of thickness by R.
k = inches of thickness/R
Calculations:
Example: Floor protection requires k value of 0.84 and 3/4 inch
thick.
Alternative material has a k value of 0.6 and is 3/4 inch thick.
Divide 0.6 by .75 = k value of 0.80. This k value is smaller than
0.84 and therefore is acceptable.

H. Removing Metal Floor of Factory-Built
Firebox
• The firebrick (refractory), glass doors, screen rails,
screen mesh and log grates can be removed from a
factory-built firebox in order to gain minimum insert
opening requirements.
• Any smoke shelves, shields and baffles may be
removed from a factory-built firebox if attached with
mechanical fasteners.
• The metal floor of the factory-built firebox may be
removed to facilitate the installation of the insert only
when a 1 inch (25mm) airspace is provided between
the insert and the floor of outer wrap.
• If the floor is made of thin metal, we recommend using
a Quarda-Fire floor protector, Part 811-0730, which is
available through your dealer.

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.
1. Termination must exhaust above air inlet elevation. It is
recommended that at least 60 inches (1524mm) of vertical 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 (305mm) below, horizontally
from or above.
4. Distance between bottom of termination and grade
should be 12 inches (305mm) minimum. This is conditional upon plants in the area, and nature of grade
surface. The grade surface must be a non-combustible
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 soffits.
• Clearance of a termination cap above electrical service
will be 12 inches (305mm) minimum.
• Location of the vent termination must not obstruct or
interfere with access to the electrical service.

C. Equivalent Feet of Pipe
The table below can help you calculate the equivalent feet of
pipe which is a method used to determine pellet vent size. See
Figure 13.1.

D. Pipe Selection Chart
The chart will help you in determing proper venting
size according to the equivalent feet of pipe calcuated
above and the altitude above sea level of this installation. See Figure 13.2.
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) diameter pipe is
requried.
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.

Example 1: If the equivalent length of pipe is 23 feet with altitude of
8,000 feet you must use 4 inch (102mm) diameter type “L” or “PL”
vent.
Example 2: If the equivalent length of pipe is 12 feet with altitude of
6,000 feet you may use 3 or 4 inch (76 to 102mm) diameter type “L”
or “PL” vent
