OUTSIDE AIR CONNECTION

This stove may be connected direct to the outside of
the house for its combustion air supply.

The primary air inlet (item 55) located at the bottom
of the back panel (item 31) may be connected to
outside air.

To connect this stove to an outside air supply use
either 4” rigid of flexible stainless steel pipes or non­combustible corrosion-resistant materials not more
than 54” in length and having no sharp bends or
corners other than the down turn at the terminus.
The outside air inlet terminus must be fitted with a

1

/4” x 1/4” corrosion-resistant wire mesh to prevent

leaves, and rodents entering from the outside.
Air inlets traversing cavity walls should include a

continuous duct across the cavity. The duct should
be installed in such a manner as not to impair the
weather resistance of the cavity.

Joints between air vents and outside walls should be
sealed to prevent ingress of moisture.

FLOOR PROTECTION

When installing this heater on a combustible floor, a
floor protector, consisting of a layer of non­combustible material at least 3/8” thick or 1/4” thick
covered with 1/8” sheet metal is required to cover
the area under the heater and to extend to at least
18” at the front and 8” to the sides. This will provide
protection from sparks and embers which may fall
out from the door when stoking or fuelling.

If the side door is to be used the floor protector must
extend at least 18” from the right side of the stove
when looking from the front.

LOCATION

There are several conditions to be considered when
selecting a location for your Waterford Trinity MK II
Wood Stove.

(a) Distance from a safe chimney.
(b) Position in the area to be heated - central

locations are usually best.

(c) Allowances for proper clearances to

combustibles.

(d) Obstruction in the ceiling, upper floor or roof, for

example, ducting, plumbing, electrical fittings
and wiring, overhead fixed furnishings etc.

WARNING:
DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE IN

CONJUNCTION WITH ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION
DUCTWORK UNLESS SPECIFICALLY
APPROVED FOR SUCH INSTALLATION

DO NOT OBSTRUCT FREE AIR SUPPLY TO THE
AIR INLET DUCT LOCATED AT THE BACK OF
THE STOVE.

MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

In addition to standard installation instructions the
following requirements are mandatory for installation
in a mobile home.

CAUTION: Do not obstruct combustion air opening.

1. The stove must be permanently bolted to the
floor of the Mobile Home using the floor screws
provided.

2. The stove must have a permanent outside air
source for combustion.
