venting Installation
Chimneys taller than 20’ above the connection will
require a draft test to determine if the draft is too high.
Note: The high burn draft should not exceed .85 IWC.
Some form of a restrictor plate may be required at the
top of high chimneys to reduce the draft. See page 21
for the Draft Test procedure.
Creosote - Formation and Need for Removal - When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors,
which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue
of a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an
extremely hot fire. The pellet vent pipe should be inspected at least twice monthly during the heating season to determine
if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
Guidance on minimizing creosote formation and the need for periodic creosote removal: The chimney should be
inspected during the heating season to determine if a creosote build-up has occurred. If a significant layer of creosote has
accumulated (3mm or more) it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
This boiler may be used and installed into an existing
masonry or Class A metal chimney.
Certain Canadian and Local Codes may require that
the chimney be fully relined.
The venting Can Not be installed in a chimney serv-
ing another appliance.
The chimney should be cleaned and or inspected before
installation of the venting.
NOTE: All installation clearances and restrictions
must be adhered to.
NOTE: Read and follow all of the vent pipe
manufacturers’ instructions on the proper
installation and support of the vent pipe. Adhere
to all clearances.
DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE
EXHAUST VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A
CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER
APPLIANCE.

CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT
MANUFACTURER
INSTALLATION IS TO BE PERFORMED BY
A QUALIFIED INSTALLER.
NOTE: Use only 4” diameter approved pellet
venting system. Be sure to inspect and clean
exhaust venting system frequently.
KEEP COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS SUCH
AS GRASS, LEAVES, ETC. AT LEAST 3 FEET
AWAY FROM THE POINT DIRECTLY UNDER
THE VENT TERMINATION. (BETWEEN THE
VENT AND THE GROUND)
WARNING
KEEP COMBUSTIBLES AWAY
FROM FLUE OUTLET.
