ations
1. Appliance Location
NOTICE: Check
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations.
Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, re
•
ofcials or authorities having jurisdiction over restrictions,
installation inspection and permits.
It is a good idea to plan your installation on paper, using
exact measurements for clearances and oor protection,
before actually beginning the installation
Consideration must be given to:
• Safety, convenience, trafc ow
• Placement of the chimney and chimney connector.
• If you are not using an existing chimney, place the appli-
ance where there will be a clear passage for a factorybuilt listed chimney through the ceiling and roof.
• Installing an optional outside air kit would affect the loca-
tion of the vent termination.
building codes prior to installation.
Since pellet exhaust can contain ash, soot or sparks, you
must consider the location of:
• Windows
• Air Intakes
• Air Conditioner
• Overhang, softs, porch roofs, adjacent walls
• Landscaping, vegetation
When locating vent and venting termination, vent above roof
line when possible.
Warning! Risk of Fire Damaged parts could impair safe
operation. Do NOT install damaged, incomplete or substitute
components.
CAUTION!
Ifburningshelledeldcorn,youmustuse ap-
provedventingspecicallydesignedforcorntopreventcorrosion or degradation. Follow the instructions from the venting
manufacturer.
NOTICE: Locating the appliance in a location of
considerable air movement can cause intermittent smoke
spillage from appliance. Do not locate appliance near:
• Frequently open doors
• Central heat outlets or returns

B. Locating Your Appliance & Chimney
Loc a tion of the appli a nce and chimn e y will affe c t
performance.
• Install through the warm airspace enclosed by the building
envelope. This helps to produce more draft, especially
during lighting and die-down of the re.
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes the
effects of wind loading.
• Locate termination cap away from trees, adjacent
structures, uneven roof lines and other obstructions.
• Minimize the use of chimney offsets.
• Consider the appliance location relative to oor and ceiling
and attic joists.
• Take into consideration the termination requirements on
Page 11.
CAUTION
• DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE
SERVICING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
• DO NOT CONNECT TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTON DUCT
OR SYSTEM.
C. 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
oor level, you will notice higher temperatures near the
appliance.
D. Draft
Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent appliances
successfully. When an appliance is drafting successfully, all
combustion byproducts are exiting the home through the
chimney.
Considerations for successful draft include:
• Preventing negative pressure
• Location of appliance and chimney
NOTICE: Hearth & Home Technologies assumes no
responsibility for the improper performance of the chimney
system caused by:
• Inadequate draft due to environmental conditions
• Downdrafts
Tight sealing construction of the structure
•
• Mechanical exhausting devices
E. Negative Pressure
WARNING! Risk of Asphyxiation! Negative pressure can
cause spillage of combustion fumes and soot.
Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air available for the appliance to operate properly. It can be stron-
gest in lower levels of the house.
Causes include:
• Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.)
Range hoods
•
• Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water heaters
and other combustion appliances
• Clothes dryers
•
Location of return-air vents to furnace or air conditioning
• Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system
• Upper level air leaks such as:
- Recessed lighting
- Attic hatch
- Duct leaks
To minimize the effects of negative air pressure:
• Install the outside air kit with the intake facing prevailing
winds during the heating season
• Ensure adequate outdoor air for all combustion appliances
and exhaust equipment
• Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are not
located in the immediate vicinity of the appliance
• Avoid installing the appliance near doors, walkways or
small isolated spaces
• Recessed lighting should be a “sealed can” design
• Attic hatches weather stripped or sealed
• Attic mounted duct work and air handler joints and seams
taped or sealed
WARNING
Fire Hazard.
• Do not operate appliance before reading
and understanding operating instructions.
• Failure to operate appliance properly may
cause a house re.

To provide reasonable re safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
• Install at least one smoke detector on each oor of your
home.
• Locate smoke detector away from the heating appliance
and close to the sleeping areas.
• Follow the smoke detector manufacturer’s placement and
installation instructions and maintain regularly.
• Conveniently locate a Class A re extinguisher to contend
with small res.
• In the event of a hopper re:
• Evacute the house immediately.
• Notify re department.
WARNING
Inspect appliance and components for
damage. Damaged parts may impair safe
operation.
• Do NOT install damaged components.
• Do NOT install incomplete components.
• Do NOT install substitute components.
Report damaged parts to dealer.

G. Calculating Alternate Floor Protection Material
Thermal Conductivity: k value
The k value indicates the amount of heat (in BTU’s) that will ow
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 accept-
able.
(BTU) (inch)
(foot2 (hour) (oF)
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 materi-
al 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-com-
bustible material to the combustible material beneath it. The
R value of a material must be equal or larger then the re-
quired R value to be acceptable.
Converting k to R:
Divide 1 by k and multiply the results times the thickness in inch-
es 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. Prefabricated Metal Chimney
The chimney can be new or existing, masonry or prefabricated
and must meet the following minimum requirements:
• Must be minimum 6 inch (152mm) inside diameter of
high temperature chimney listed to UL 103 HT (2100oF)
or ULC-S628.
• Must use components required by the manufacturer for
installation.
• Must maintain clearances required by the manufacturer
for installation.
• Refer to manufacturers instructions for installation
•This insert is listed to UL 1482 Standard and is approved
for installation into listed factory-built zero
places listed to UL 127 conforming to the following speci-
cations and instructions:
•The original factory-built clearance replace chimney
cap must be re-installed after installing the approved
chimney liner meeting type UL 103 HT requirements
(2100°F) per UL 1777.
•If the chimney is not listed as meeting HT requirements,
or if the factory built replace was tested prior to 1998, a
full height listed chimney liner must be installed from the
appliance ue collar to the chimney top.
•The liner must be securely attached to the insert ue collar
and the chimney top.
•The air ow of the factory-built zero-clearance replace
system must not be altered. The ue liner top support
attachment must not reduce the air ow for the existing
air-cooled chimney system.
•No dilution air is allowed to enter the chimney.
1. Secure the replace damper in the open position. If
this cannot be accomplished, it will be necessary to
remove the damper

I. Removing Metal Floor of Factory-Built
Firebox
• The rebrick (refractory), glass doors, screen rails, screen
mesh and log grates can be removed from a factory-built
rebox in order to gain minimum insert opening require-
ments.
• Any smoke shelves, shields and bafes may be removed
from a factory-built rebox if attached with mechanical fas-
teners.
The metal oor of the factory-built rebox may be removed
•
to facilitate the installation of the insert only when a 1 inch
(25mm) airspace is provided between the insert and the
oor of outer wrap.
If the oor is made of thin metal, we recommend using a
•
Quarda-Fire oor protector, Part 811-0730, which is avail-
able through your dealer.
Figure 12.1. Measure and mark the metal oor for cutting.
With a drill, make a starter hole in each corner.
J. Altering the Factory-Built Fireplace
• The fireplace must not be altered, except for the
exceptions listed below. Do not removal the bricks and
mortar from the existing replace.
The following modications are premissible:
• Removal of damper or locked in open position
• Removal of smoke shelf or bafe
• Removal of ember catches
• Removel of re grate
• Removal of view screen/curtain
• Removal of doors
• External trim pieces which do not affect the operation
of the replace may be removed providing they can be
stored on or within the replace for reassembly if the insert
is removed.
• The permanent metal warning label provided must be
attached to the back of the replace, with screws or
nails, stating that the replace may have been altered to
accommodate the insert, and must be returned to original
condition for use as a conventional replace. Figure
12.4.
• If the hearth extension is lower than the replace opening,
the portion of the insert extending onto the hearth must
be supported.
• Manufacturer designed adjustable support kit can be
ordered from your dealer.
• Final approval of this installation type is contingent upon
the authority having jurisdiction.
Figure 12.2. Using a saws-all, cut out the oor.
Figure 12.3. Place the insert into the factory-built rebox.
Ensure that the power cord can not be damaged by the sharp
metal edge. You may need to cut out a notch to accommo-
date the cord.

NOTE: Refer to chimney liner manufacturer for recommendations on supporting the liner. Installation into
replaces without a permit will void the listing
WARNING! Risk of Fire!
Follow venting manufacturer’s clearances and instructions
when installing venting system.
NOTICE: In Canada when using a factory-built chim-
ney it must be safety listed, Type UL103 HT (2100oF)

A. Chimney and Exhaust Connection
CB1200-I Pellet Insert
B. Venting Termination Requirements
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 ue 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 ue connector or
Listed double wall ue connector to Class A Listed metal
chimneys, or masonry chimneys meeting International
Conference of Building Ofcials (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.
6. DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST
VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.
7. DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE
SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
NOTE: All pipe must be welded seam pipe whenever possible. Seal pipe joints with high temperature silicone (500°F
[260°C] minimum rated only). Do not put silicone inside
of pipe.
NOTE: If burning shelled eld corn, you must use approved
venting specically designed for corn. Follow the instruc-
tions from the venting manufacturer.
WARNING
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
Vent surfaces get HOT, can cause burns if
touched. Noncombustible shielding or guards
may be required.
CAUTION
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.
1. Termination must exhaust above air inlet elevation. It
is recommended that at least 60 inches (1.5m) 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 (1.2m) below;
b. Not less than 48 inches (1.2m) 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 con-
ditional 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 (2.1m) 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 softs.
• 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.

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 14.2.
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 ow 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.

Fire Risk.
Do NOT pack insulation or other combustibles between restops.
• ALWAYS maintain specied clearances around venting and restop systems.
• Install restops as specied.
Failure to keep insulation or other material away from vent pipe may cause re.
Figure 14.2
Example 1: If the equivalent length of pipe is 23 feet (7m)with altitude
of 8,000 feet (2438m) you must use 4 inch (102mm) diameter type “L”
or “PL” vent.
Example 2: If the equivalent length of pipe is 12 feet (3.7m) with al-
titude of 6,000 feet (1829m) you may use 3 or 4 inch (76 to 102mm)
diameter type “L” or “PL” vent
