INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the HYBRID-35 pellet stove & insert. You are now prepared to burn wood in the most efficient, convenient way possible. To achieve the safest, most efficient and most enjoyable performance from your stove, you must do three things: 1) Install it properly; 2) Operate it correctly; and 3) Maintain it regularly. The purpose of this manual is to help you do all three.
PLEASE read this entire manual before installation and use of this pellet fuel-burning room heater. Failure to follow these instructions could result in property damage, bodily injury or even death.
Keep this manual handy for future reference.
Your HYBRID-35 has been independently tested to ASTM E1509-04 Standard Specification for room heaters, pellet fuel burning type 1 and the HYBRID-35 insert has been independently tested to ASTM E1509-04 Standard Specification for room heaters, pellet fuel burning type 1, UL 1482-1998 Standard for solid fuel room heaters and ULC-S628-93 Standard for fireplace inserts.
This pellet stove, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and
This appliance is designed for use with pelletized wood only. Do not burn coal of any type in this appliance. It is designed for residential installation according to current national and local building codes as a freestanding or insert room heater. It is also approved as a mobile home heater which is designed for connection to an outside combustion air source.
The stove will not operate using natural draft or without a power source for the blowers and fuel feed system.
This stove is designed to provide the optimum proportions of fuel and air to the fire in order to burn free of smoke and soot. Any blockage of the air supply to or from the stove will seriously degrade its performance and will be evidenced by a smoking exhaust and a sooting window. For best operation, the ash content of the pellet fuel should be less than 1% and the calorific value approximately 8,200 BTU/LB. Avoid burning high ash content fuels because this will rapidly fill up the burn pot and eventually cut off the combustion air supply.
The HYBRID-35 should not be used for commercial or industrial applications since operational control is often not well managed in these settings
CSA-C22.1.

COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY

For a mobile home installation the stove must be connected to an outside source of combustion air. A 3” inside diameter metallic pipe, either flexible or rigid, may be attached to the inlet at the stove’s rear (refer to figures 4, 5 & 6). A rodent guard (minimum 1/4” wire mesh) must be used at the terminus (refer to figure 5). All connections must be secured and airtight by either using the appropriately sized hose clamp and/or UL-181-AP foil tape.
For mobile home installations only: combustion air supply conduit may not exceed 10 feet.

EQUIVALENT VENT LENGHT (EVL)

The longer the run of pipe in your installation, the more restriction there is in the system. Therefore, larger diameter pipe should be used for longer runs.
Use 4” pipe if you have more than 15 feet of Equivalent Vent Length (EVL).
Horizontal runs shall not exceed 10 feet of EVL.
To calculate EVL, use the following conversions table:
Qty Type of pipe EVL equivalent(ft)
1 90° elbow or “T” 5
1 45° elbow 3
1 ft Horizontal pipe run 1
1 ft Vertical pipe run 0.5
NOTE: At altitudes above 3,000 feet, we suggest the use of 4” diameter vent at an EVL of 7 feet or more.
Here is an example on how to calculate the EVL of your installation. (See Figure 16)
(3 x 4’ of vertical length = 12’ x 0.5 = 6 EVL) + (1 x elbow or "T" = 5 EVL) + (2 x 1’ of horizontal length = 2 EVL)
Total EVL = (6 + 5 +2) = 13. So 3” diameter vent is allowed

INSTALLATION CONFIGURATIONS

HORIZONTALLY THROUGH WALL

(refer to Figure 7 & 8)
NOTE: Follow L-Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions.
1. Position stove, adhering to clearances shown in Figures 1 & 2.
2. Determine position of hole in wall; directly behind stove exhaust vent (refer to figure 4).
3. Always maintain 3” clearance from combustible materials.
4. Install L-Vent wall thimble per L-Vent manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Attach enough piping to go through and extend at least 6” beyond exterior wall. An 8-foot vertical pipe run is suggested where possible to reduce the possibility of smoke spillage caused by negative pressure.
6. Attach cap and seal outside wall thimbles with non-hardening waterproof mastic.
Termination should not be located so that hot exhaust gases can ignite trees, shrubs, or grasses or be a hazard to children. Exhaust gases can reach temperatures of 500ºF and cause serious burns if touched.

N
(Refer to Figure 18 & 19 for basement installation)
NOTE: Follow L-Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions.
OPTION: To achieve a centered vertical installation, a 45º elbow and a
clean-out tee can be used to offset the pipe from the exhaust outlet to the rear center of the stove.
OPTION: Install L-Vent elbow in place of clean-out tee. Locate stove. Drop plumb bob to center of tee outlet, mark point on ceiling. Install ceiling support and L-Vent pipe per L-Vent manufacturer’s instructions.
1. Always maintain 3” clearance from combustible materials. When passing through additional floors or ceilings, always install firestop spacer.
2. After lining up for hole in roof, cut either a round or square hole in roof, always 3” larger all the way around pipe. Install upper edge and sides of flashing under roofing materials, nail to the roof along upper edge. Do not nail lower edge. Seal nail heads with flexible waterproof sealant.
3. Apply flexible, waterproof sealant where the storm collar meets the vent. Slide storm collar down until it sits on the flashing. Seal and install cap. Mobile home installations must use a spark arrester.

VERTICALLY INTO EXISTING CHIMNEY SYSTEM

As an alternative, 3” or 4” L-Vent can be run inside existing chimney to termination(Figure 19). This is the preferred method.
Follow guidelines for equivalent vent length.
