INSTALLATION
Venting Introduction
This pellet stove operates on a negative draft system, which pulls combustion air
through the burn pot and pushes the exhaust air through the vent pipe and out of the building.
This unit must be installed in accordance with the following detailed descriptions of venting
techniques; not installing the stove in accordance with the details listed here can result in poor
stove performance, property damage, bodily injury or death. England’s Stove Works is not
responsible for any damage incurred due to a poor or unsafe installation.
If questions arise pertaining to the safe installation of the stove, our Technical Support
line (800‐245‐6489) is available. Contact your local code official to be certain your installation
meets local and national fire codes and if you’re uncertain about how to safely install the stove,
we strongly recommend contacting a local NFI certified installer to perform the installation.
Venting Guidelines
 ALWAYS install vent pipe in strict adherence with the instructions and clearances
included with your venting system.
 DO NOT connect this pellet stove to a chimney flue which also serves another appliance.
 DO NOT install a flue pipe damper or any other restrictive device in the exhaust venting
system of this unit.
 USE an approved wall thimble when passing through a wall and a ceiling support/fire
stop when passing through a ceiling.
 ONLY use 3.0” or 4.0” Type L or Type PL pipe approved for pellet stove venting; DO NOT
use galvanized or B‐Vent pipe.
 SEAL each joint of pellet vent with high temperature silicone (Part # AC‐RTV3) to
prevent smoke spillage into the home.
 AVOID excessive horizontal runs and elbows, as both will reduce the draft of the venting
system and will result in poor stove performance.
 INCLUDE as much vertical pipe as possible to prevent smoke from the unit from entering
your home in the event of a power outage.
 INSPECT your venting system often, to be certain it is clear of fly‐ash and other
restrictions.
 CLEAN the venting system as detailed in the maintenance section of this manual.
WARNING: Venting system surfaces get HOT, and can cause burns if touched.
Noncombustible shielding or guards may be required.
WARNING
 INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT MANUFACTURER.
 HOT! Do not touch! Severe burns or clothing ignition may result.
 Glass and other surfaces are hot during operation.
