After reading these instructions, if you have any doubt
about your ability to complete your installation in a pro-
fessional manner you should obtain the services of an
installer versed in all aspects as to the correct and safe
installation. Do not use temporary makeshift compro-
mises during installation.
BEFORE INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE
1. Check with the building inspector's office for
compliance with local codes; a permit may be
required.
2. Use 3" or 4" (76-102mm) diameter type "L" or
"PL" venting system. It can be vented vertically or
horizontally. Approved adaptors can be used to
connect the "L" or" PL" to approved wood stove
venting such as single wall or double wall venting
previously used to vent a wood burning appliance.
INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED
BY THE VENT MANUFACTURE.
3. Always connect this unit to an approved chim-
ney system and NEVER vent to another room or
inside a building.
4. DO NOT INSTALLA FLUE DAMPER IN THE
EXHAUST VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.
5. DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIM-
NEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
6. The connector pipe and chimney should be
inspected periodically and cleaned if necessary.
Review additional information located in the main-
tenance section of this Owner's Manual.
7. Remember the clearance distances when you
place furniture or other objects within the area.
This includes heat sensitive materials such as
candles, seasonal decorations or draperies. DO
NOT STORE WOOD, FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS
OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS TOO
CLOSE TO THE UNIT.
8. Be aware of the required clearances when
locating the unit. Refer to the label on the rear of
the unit for required clearances.
9. Contact your local municipal or provincial fire
authority for information of how to handle a chim-
ney fire. Have a clear understood plan to handle
a chimney fire. In the event of a chimney fire,
CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
10. Prior to burning the unit for the first time make
sure the hardware kit has been removed from the
firebox.
It is highly recommended that the pellet heater
and chimney be installed by a qualified installer. A
qualified installer is a person or entity who regularly
installs solid burning fuel products and chimneys in
the course of their ordinary business.
A WARNING

2 User Guide: General Information
A. Fire Safety
To provide reasonable fire safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
- Install at least one smoke detector on each floor 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 fire extinguisher to contend
with small fires.
. In the event of a hopper fire:
Evacute the house immediately.
Notify fire department.
B. Combustible/Non-Combustible Materials
• Combustible Material
Material made of or surfaced with wood, compressed
paper, plant fibers, plastics, or any material capable
of igniting and burning, whether flame -proofed or not,
plastered or unplastered.
• Non-combustible Material
Material which will not ignite and burn. Such materials are
those consisting entirely of steel, iron, brick, tile, slate,
glass or plasters, or any combination thereof.
• Non-combustible Sealant Material
Sealants which will not ignite and burn: Rutland, Inc.
Fireplace Mortar #63, Rutland 76R, Nuflex 304, GE
RTV106 or GE RTB116 (or equivalent).
C. Fuel Material and Fuel Storage
Pellet fuel quality can greatly fluctuate. We recommend that
you buy fuel in multi -ton lots whenever possible. However,
we do recommend trying various brands before purchasing
multi -ton lots to ensure your satisfaction.
Fuel Material
• Made from sawdust or wood by-products
• Depending on the source material it may have a high or
low ash content.
Higher Ash Content Material
• Hardwoods with a high mineral content
• Fuel that contains bark
• Standard grade pellets or high ash pellets
Lower Ash Content Material
• Most softwoods
• Fuels with low mineral content
• Most premium grade pellets
Clinkers
Minerals and other non-combustible materials such as sand
will turn into a hard, glass -like substance called a clinker when
heated in the firepot.
Trees from different areas will vary in mineral content. That
is why some fuels produce more clinkers than others.
Moisture
Always burn dry fuel. Burning fuel with high moisture content
takes heat from the fuel and tends to cool the appliance,
robbing heat from your home. Damp pellet fuel can clog the
feed system.
Size
• Pellets are either 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch (6 -8mm) in diameter
• Length should be no more that 1-1/2 inches (38mm)
• Pellet lengths can vary from lot to lot from the same
manufacturer
• Due to length variations, the feed rate may need adjusting
occasionally
Performance
• Higher ash content requires the firepot and the ash drawer
to be emptied more frequently
• Hardwoods require more air to burn properly
• Premium wood pellets produce the highest heat output
• Burning pellets longer than 1-1 /2 inches (38mm) can cause
an inconsistent fuel feed rate and/or missed ignitions
Storaae
• Wood pellets should be left in their original sealed bag until
using to prevent moisture absorption
• Do not store any pellet fuel within the clearance requirements
or in an area that would hinder routine cleaning and
maintenance
D. Before Your First Fire
1 . First, make sure your appliance has been properly
installed and that all safety requirements have been met.
Pay particular attention to the fire protection and venting.
2. Double check that the firebox is empty and the firepot is
in place!
3. Close and latch the door.

2 User Guide: General Operating Information
A. User Dial Control
The appliance has one dial control located on the side of
the unit used for daily operation. There are four primary
settings on this dial.
1 ) Off : When the dial indicator is in the off position
the unit will go into a shut down and remain off
until the dial is turned to one of the other three
settings. The LED will flash green once per
second when in the off position.
2) MIN : When the dial indicator is directed to the
MIN setting (small flame on the label) the unit
will burn on low until the hopper runs out of
pellets or the dial control is turned to a different
setting. When in this setting the LED will be
amber in color and continuously on. When
burning in this mode, the unit should be turned
off at least once daily for cleaning. If lower
quality fuels are used, additional daily shut
downs may be required for cleaning.
MAX: Similar to the MIN mode, the unit will
run continuously at the high burn rate until the
unit has run out of fuel or the dial is turned to a
different setting. To operate in this mode, turn the
dial clockwise until it stops. The dial
indicator will point to the large flame. When in
this setting the LED will be amber in color and
continuously on. Follow the daily cleaning
recommendations when operating in this mode. If
lower quality fuels are used, additional daily shut
downs may be required for cleaning.
4: AUTO : To burn in the Automatic mode, turn
the dial control clockwise to the desired comfort
level. When operating in the automatic mode, the
unit changes the burn setting based on the
difference between the room temperature and the
desired set point. In other words, the unit will
burn on High if the difference between the
desired and room temperature is greater than 8
degrees Fahrenheit. As the room heats up and
the gap closes, the unit will automatically reduce
the burn rate. When the desired temperature is
achieved the unit will shut down. As the room
cools, the unit will restart automatically. When
burning in this mode the LED will be blinking
green. The number of green flashes corresponds
to the current burn rate.
B. Filling the Hopper
Slowly open the hopper lid by lifting the handle. The
medium and large units have a locking latch that will
engage when the hopper lid is fully opened. The hopper
lid for the cabinet will open past ninety degrees and
stay open automatically. Fill the hopper with fuel. FOR
USE WITH ONLY WOOD PELLET FUEL. Slowly close
the hopper lid. See figure below for releasing the latch.
NOTE: The unit will not feed with the hopper lid open. If
left open, the fire will go out.

2 User Guide: General Operating Information
C. Priming the Feed Tube
If the hopper is being filled for the first time or the unit had
previously run out of pellets, the feed tube may need to
be primed. To do this, turn the dial control from the OFF
position to the MAX position two times. This will run the
feed motor continuously for two minutes without turning
the igniter on. When the auger is running continuously,
the LED will be a continuous green color. The system
will run the auger for 2 minutes. When pellets start to
drop into the firepot, the feed tube is primed; turn the dial
control to the desired position and the stove will begin its
ignition sequence. (The green LED will flash rapidly) DO
NOT OVERFILL FIREPOT FOR IGNITION. If there are
excessive pellets in the firepot the starts will be extremely
smokey and cause an unstable ignition that includes but
not limited to rumbling and whistling.
D. Firepot Purge Cycle
A feature of these pellet stoves is the firepot purge cycle.
The frequency of the purge cycle is once every hour the
unit is burning. During this purge, the feed is reduced to
a minimum setting and the exhaust blower ramps up to
the maximum setting. The purpose of the purge is to help
remove debris from the firepot and help the unit burn as
efficient as possible. The purge cycle lasts 99 seconds.
Please be aware that the purge cycle does not replace
daily cleaning activities but makes them easier.
E. Shutdown
To shut the appliance down, turn the dial control counter
clockwise to the OFF position. During the shutdown pro-
cess, the LED will flash green rapidly just like the ignition
sequence. The firepot purge cycle will begin but without
the feed motor running. The feed will be terminated
during this shutdown process. The exhaust and convec-
tion blowers will remain on during the shutdown process
until the exhaust has cooled.
If maintenance or daily cleaning is going to be conducted
immediately following a shutdown, please use caution as
components especially those inside the firebox may still
be hot.
Please note that if the dial control is turned to the off
position and back on even if by mistake, the unit will
go through the shutdown sequence.
F. Starting Your First Fire
1) Turn the dial control to "OFF".
2) Make sure the firepot is clean, inplace, and free of
debris.
3) Plug the unit into the wall and fill the hopper with
wood pellets. Shut the hopper lid.
4) Turn the dial control to the desired burn setting.
The unit will go into the ignition sequence followed by
start up (The green LED will flash rapidly). The igni-
tion sequence involves the exhaust blower turning on,
the igniter turning on, and the feed motor running in two
stages. The first stage involves the feed motor running
continuously for about a minute to preload pellets into the
firepot. Following the preload and a delay, the feed motor
will begin cycling on and off. When the pellets are warm-
ing up and on the verge of igniting, it is not uncommon
for the firebox to fill with smoke. Once ignition actually
happens, the smoke should evacuate quickly. During this
stage as well as any part during the burn process, the
front door should not be opened. This cycle continues
until the unit senses ignition by a rise in the exhaust tem-
perature or the unit times out. Following the ignition cycle
the unit begins to feed additional pellets gradually for a
few minutes to build up the fire. This is important to have
a controlled start up to keep the unit in balance.
G. Fire Characteristics
The overall height of the flame will vary throughout the
burn for a couple of reasons. First is that the flame will
vary based on type of fuel or even batch of fuel. Sen-
condly, the unit adjusts the burn rate according to the how
far away the room temperature is from the set tempera-
ture. This should not cause alarm. The third character-
istic that affects the fire relates to general maintenance
and cleaning. Infrequent or poor general maintenance
will result is poorer performance. Indicators of the need
for additional maintenance activities include a lazy flame,
black sooted glass, pellets not igniting, or pellets falling to
the side of the firepot. See the maintenance section for
additional information.
CAUTION
Odors and vapors released during initial operation.
• Curing of high temperature paint.
• Open windows for air circulation.
Odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.

With appliance door open.
Firepot floor open.
Do NOT store fuel:
Closer than required clearances to com-
bustibles to appliance
Within space required for loading or ash
removal.
2 User Guide: General Operating Information
J. Ignition Cycles
1. At the beginning of each ignition cycle, it is normal to see
some smoke in the firebox. The smoke will stop once
the fire starts.
2. The convection blower will automatically turn on after
your appliance has been burning for approximately 10
minutes.
This blower transfers heat from your appliance into the
room, and will continue to run even after the unit has
shutdown. It will turn off after the exhaust temperature
has cooled.
3. Occasionally the appliance may run out of fuel and shut
itself down. When this happens the empty hopper alarm
will be triggered.
K. Running in Minimum or Maximum
When the dial control is set to run on the minimum or
maximum setting, the appliance will continue to run
without regard to the actual temperature in the room.
The appliance will shut off only if the dial control is set to
a different setting or there is an error such as an empty
hopper.
When running on minimum or maximum it is important
to follow the daily cleaning activities especially cleaning
the firepot. Failure to do so will reduce the performance
of the appliance.
L. Running in the Automatic Mode
When the dial control is set to run in the automatic mode
the unit will adjust the actual burn rate based on the
difference between the room temperature as sensed by
the probe located in the rear of the unit and the desired
comfort level as set on the dial control.
The comfort level range is from 65 degrees Fahrenheit
to 82 degress Fahrenheit.
Once the desired comfort level is achieved the appliance
will automatically shut down and turn off. When the
temperature in the room drops 3 degrees below the
desired comfort level, the appliance will automatically
restart.
M. Clear Space
WARNING! RISK OF FIRE! Do NOT place combustible
objects in front or to the sides of the appliance. High tem-
peratures may ignite clothing, furniture or draperies.
Mantel: Avoid placing candies and other heat -sensitive
objects on mantel or hearth. Heat may damage these
objects.
NOTICE: Clearances may only be reduced by means ap-
proved by the regulatory authority having jurisdiction.
WARNING! RISK OF FIRE! Keep combustible materials,
gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids clear of
appliance.
• Do NOT store flammable materials in the appliance's
vicinity.
• Do NOT use gasoline, lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal
lighter fluid or similar liquids to start or "freshen up" a fire
in this heater.
Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in
use as combustible materials may ignite.
N. Trim Adjustment
The small dial located below the main dial
control is used to adjust the amount of combus-
tion air for the fire. You may need to adjust the
combustion air to the fire for:
Elevation
Venting/installation Configurations
Fuel Quality
If your fire is too large, lazy, or producing black
soot, you need MORE air. To increase the
amount of combustion air, rotate counterclock-
wise one level at a time and allow 15 minutes
for stabilization prior to making another adjust-
ment. If your fire is too small and sometimes
goes out when there are pellets in the hopper,
you may have too much air (too lean). To
decrease the amount of combustion air, rotate
clockwise one level at a time and allow 15
minutes for stabilization prior to making another
adjustment.

1. Types of Fuel
The type of fuel you are burning will dictate how often you
have to clean your firepot.
If the fuel you are burning has a high dirt or ash content, it may
be necessary to clean the firepot more than once a day.
Poor quality fuel will cause clinkers to form in the firepot. A
clinker is formed when dirt, ash or a non -burnable substance
is heated to 2000OF (1093'C) and becomes glass -like. See

Cleaninci the Hower
Frequency: Monthly or after burning 25 bags of fuel
By: Homeowner
After burning approximately 25 bags of fuel you will
need to clean the hopper to prevent sawdust build-up.
A combination of sawdust and pellets on the bottom
end of the auger reduces the amount of fuel supply to
the firepot. This can result in nuisance shutdowns and
mis-starts.
a. The appliance must be in complete shutdown.
Allow the appliance to completely run out of pellets
and cool down.
b. Empty the hopper of any remaining pellets.
c. Vacuum the hopper and feed tube. To access the
feed tube remove the four screws from the auger
cover located inside of the hopper.
Frequency: Monthly or every 25 bags or more fre-
quently depending on ash build-up.
By: Homeowner
a. Appliance must be completely cool.
b. Open the door and remove the center baffle first and
then the right and left baffles. Thoroughly vacuum the
exhaust path and drop tube and continue throughout
the rest of the firebox. Also vacuum the front and
back of the baffles.
c. Using a small brush, brush the inner walls of the
exhaust outlet from the access hole inside the firebox.
The access hole will be visible following the removal
of the left side baffle. After loosening up debris on
the inner walls of the outlet, vacuum out.
This is important as the exhaust temperature
probe is attached to the right side of the outlet.
If this is not maintained on a regular basis, the
appliance will experience nuisance shut downs
and/or missed ignitions.
d. Replace the right and left baffles and then the center
baffle and close and latch the door.

13. Soot and Fiv Ash: Formation & Need for Removal
in Exhaust Venting System,
Frequency: Yearly or more frequently depending on
ash build-up.
By: Qualified Service Technician/Homeowner
Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool, has been unplugged
and the exhaust blower is off.
The products of combustion will contain small particles of fly
ash. The fly ash will collect in the exhaust venting system
and restrict the flow of the flue gases.
At start-up if there is incomplete combustion, or if there is a
shutdown or incorrect operation of the appliance it will lead
to some soot formation. This will collect in the exhaust vent-
ing system.
The venting (chimney) system may need to be cleaned at
least once a year or more often depending upon the qual-
ity of your fuel or if there are any horizontal pipe sections.
Ash will build up more quickly in the horizontal sections and
elbows.

D. High Ash Fuel Content Maintenance
• Frequency: As needed
• By: Homeowner
Poor quality pellet fuel, lack of maintenance, or if the small
dial control is set to a less than optimum setting, poor com-
bustion conditions that make the firepot fill quickly with ashes
and clinkers.
This condition makes the appliance susceptible to overfilling
the firepot with pellets which may result in smoking, soot-
ing and possible hopper fires. The figure below shows an
example where the firepot overfills, pellets back up into the
feed tube and ash has accumulated in the firebox.
An inefficient and non -economical method of burning of fuel
caused by poor quality pellet fuel is shown below.
If the ash buildup exceeds the half way point in the firepot
IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND CLEANING IS REQUIRED.

E. Frequently Asked Questions
What causes my glass to become dirty?
If the glass has white ash build up it is normal and the
glass should be cleaned. If it is a black soot build up
airflow thru the unit may be restricted. The most often
cause is overdue maintenance and cleaning. See
"Maintaining and Servicing Appliance" in the owner's
manual and/or make adjustments to the trim control.
How can I get more heat out of the appliance?
The most often cause of diminished heat output is
overdue maintenance and cleaning . See "Maintaining
and Servicing Appliance" in the owner's manual.
What should I do if I smell smoke or there is ash/
soot coming from the appliance?
While there will always be some smoke smell from
wood burning appliances (including pellet) you should
investigate all venting to make sure it is sealed prop-
erly. Most venting requires silicone to seal the seams.
In addition most homes are built very tight today and
with exhaust systems can create negative pressure
in the home. See "Negative Pressure" under "Getting
Started" in the owner's manual if you have checked the
venting but still have smoke coming from the appli-
ance. For ash or soot check the above and the exhaust
blower housing and seals.
Why would my appliance run fine last winter but
not start this fall?
It is possible that the stove was not properly prepared
for the Non -burn season. See "Troubleshooting" in the
owner's manual.
Why would the metal on the inside of the appliance
begin to flake?
There are some pellet mills that get their raw materials
from lumber mills that purchase logs that are trans-
ported in sea water. These pellets can have a higher
salt content and cause the metals in the unit to corrode
prematurely and deteriorate. If you are seeing any
components inside the firebox deteriorate it is recom-
mended to change pellet brands immediately.
Is there a place to lubricate the blowers to quiet
them down?
The most often cause of noisy blowers is from the
impellers becoming dirty over time. See "General Main-
tenance & Cleaning" under "Maintaining & Servicing
Appliance" in the owner's manual. No form of lubrica-
tion should ever need applied to the blowers.
What is the metal object with the bend in it for that
came inside the plastic bag?
It is a clean-out tool used to help clean the firepot and
remove any jams in the rare event they occur in the
feed tube.
Why is there a black residue building up on the
outside of my home?
Wind can cause this to happen. If the appliance is
operating correctly very little soot should ever exit the
termination cap. Also check to be sure the venting is
installed per the owner's manual and local codes.
Do I need an outside air kit?
Outside air is required for mobile home installs and in
some jurisdictions. Refer to "Listing & Code Approv-
als"," Mobile Home Installation" and " Appliance Set-up"
owner's manual. Also refer to local building codes.
I am seeing sparks coming out of my pipe (termina-
tion cap) outside is this safe?
This is normal. As long as clearances to combustibles
were followed this is safe.
I have no power to anything. Does this unit have a
circuit breaker or fuse or a reset button?
This unit has one serviceable fuse on the control board
and a resetable snap switch mounted to the feed tube.
Can I burn corn in my unit?
NO, corn is not an approved fuel.
Where is the serial # of my unit is located?
The serial # is located on the back of the stove.

Getting Started
A. Design, Installation & Location Considerations B. Draft (Cont'd)
NOTICE: Check building codes prior to installation.
Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations.
Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, fire
officials or authorities having jurisdiction over restrictions,
installation inspection and permits.
Since pellet exhaust can contain ash, soot or sparks, you
must consider the location of:
• Windows
• Air Intakes
• Air Conditioner
• Overhang, soffits, porch roofs, adjacent walls
• Landscaping, vegetation
When locating vent and venting termination, vent above
roof line when possible.
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. Draft
Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent appliances
successfully. When an appliance is drafting successfully,
all combustion by products are exiting the home through
the chimney.
Considerations for successful draft include:
• Preventing negative pressure
• Location of appliance and chimney
To measure the draft or negative pressure on your appliance
use a magnahelic or a digital pressure gauge capable of
reading 0 - .25 inches of water column (W.C.).
The appliance should be running on high for at least 15
minutes for the test.
With the stove running on high you should have a negative
pressure equal to or greater than the number given in the
chart. If you have a lower reading than you find on the
chart, your stove does not have adequate draft to burn the
fuel properly.

Installer's Guide
Correct low draft or low vacuum problems by doing one of
the following:
• Thoroughly clean the exhaust path and venting. See
Maintenance Section.
• Inspect for worn or broken gaskets. Repair any gaskets
suspected of leaking, or adjust the trim.
NOTICE: GHP 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
C. Negative Pressure
WARNING! Risk of Asphyxiation! Negative pressure can
cause spillage of combustion fumes and soot.
Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air avail-
able 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 or open windows
- 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 ductwork and air handlerjoints and seams
taped or sealed

D. Locating Your Appliance & Chimney
Location of the appliance and chimney will affect
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 fire.
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes the
affects 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 floor and ceiling
and attic joists.
• Take into consideration the termination requirements.

7 Vent Information
A. Chimney and Exhaust Connection
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 OffsetAdapter, use Listed
double wall flue connector. An authorized Outside Air Kit
must be used with manufactured home installations.
3. Residential: The 3 inch (76mm) vertical Top VentAdapter
Kit and the 3 to 6 inch (76-152mm) Top Vent OffsetAdapter
are tested to use 24 gauge single wall flue connector or
Listed double wall flue connector to Class A Listed metal
chimneys, or masonry chimneys meeting International
Conference of Building Officials (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 or rivets per the pipe manufacturer's
instructions. 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 pos-
sible. Seal pipejoints with high temperature silicone (500*F
[260*C] minimum rated only). Do not put silicone inside

Fire Risk.
Follow Chimney Connector Manufacturer's
Instructions for Proper Installation.
ONLY use connector:
. Within the room, between appliance and ceiling or wall.
Connector shall NOT pass through:
• Attic or roof space
• Closet or similar concealed space
• Floor or ceiling
Maintain minimum clearances to combustibles
WARNING
Vent surfaces get HOT, can cause burns if
touched. Non-combustible shielding or guards
may be required.
B. Venting Termination Requirements
I CAUTION I
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
strongly recommended that at least 60 inches (1.5m)
of vertical 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 conditional
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 7 feet (2.13m) 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 sof-
fits.
• 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.

7 Vent Information
C. Pellet Venting Charts
The maximum horizontal venting allowed with no vertical vent-
ing attached is 48 inches (1219mm) including one 90* elbow
or two 45' elbows. This is our recommended horizontal vent-
ing installation. Addition of any horizontal venting beyond 48
inches (1219mm) requires a minimum 60 inches (1524mm) of
additional vertical vent. Horizontal sections of vent pipe should
have a 1/4 inch (6.35mm) rise per foot.
GHP recommends any installation requiring more than two 90*
elbows, or more than 15 feet (4.5m) of venting to use 4 inch
(102mm) vent.
45* elbow is equivalent to 1 foot
of straight pipe
90' elbow is equivalent to 3 feet
