Installation
10� The pipe must extend at least 12” (30 cm) away from the building� If necessary, bring another length
of pipe (PL type) to the outside of the home to connect to the first section� Do not forget to place
high temperature silicone around the pipe that passes through the thimble�
11� Install a vertical pipe, or if all requirements for direct venting are met, install vent termination� The
stainless steel cap termination manufactured by the vent manufacturer is recommended� However,
when the vent terminates several feet above ground level and there are no trees, plants, etc� within
several feet, a 45° elbow can be used as termination� The elbow must be turned down to prevent
rain from entering�
NOTE:
• It is recommended that horizontal through wall installations have 3 to 5 feet (91 to 152 cm) of vertical
pipe in the system to help naturally draft the unit in the event of extreme weather or a power outage�
• Some horizontal through wall installations may require a “T” and 3 to 5 feet (91 to 152 cm) of vertical
pipe outside the building to help draft the unit� This may be required if a proper burn cannot be
maintained, after the stove has been tested and the airflow set� This is due to the back pressure in the
exhaust caused by airflow around the structure�
• Follow vent manufacturer guidelines for installation of venting� High temp Sealant must be used when
connecting vent pipe to the units starter pipe� Improper seals at the vent joints may cause combustion
by-products to leak into the room where installed - seal as required.

A 45° elbow may be used in place of the termination cap (or stainless steel termination hood)�
Figure 24 is the recommended installation set up�
Figure 25 is the installation to use if there is a concrete or retaining wall in line with exhaust vent on
a pellet stove� The termination must be 12” (30 cm) from the outside wall and 12” (30 cm) above the
ground�
