69FAK OUTSIDE AIR SUPPLY (OPTIONAL, UNLESS INSTALLING IN A MOBILE HOME)
Depending on your location and home construction, outside air may be necessary for optimal performance.
1. With the stove in the operating position, mark and drill a hole to accommodate the 2” exible hose.
2. Insert the hose through the wall and attach the Outside Cover with one of the 2” hose clamps provided.
3. Then attach the Outside Cover to the outside wall.
4. Next, attach the Rodent Cover to the Outside Cover using four (4) of the #10 x 3/4 screws supplied.
5. On the inside of the home, slide the Inside Plate over the tube then attach to the wall with the four drywall
anchors and screws provided.
6. On the Air Inlet Tube coming out of the rebox, there is a cap that must have four (4), 5/32” (0.156) diameter
holes drilled in it for the fresh air installation. The cap is on the front side of the tube just under the burnpot.
Remove burnpot. Using a long screwdriver or equivalent, knock the cap off by inserting it from the back of
the stove and pecking with a hammer. Drill holes, then replace cap and burnpot.
7. Attach one of the 2” ex hoses to the backside of the rebox, then to air inlet pipe at the back of the stove
as shown.
8. Stretch the 2” ex hose to the air inlet on the back of the stove. Attach using the other 2” hose clamp. The
hose will extend up to 4 feet in length.
SPECIAL MOBILE HOME REQUIREMENTS
• WARNING! - Do not install in a sleeping room
• CAUTION! - The structural integrity of the mobile home oor, wall, and ceiling/roof must be maintained.
• A working smoke detector must be installed in the same room as this product.
• It must be installed at least 15 feet (4,57 m) from the appliance in order to prevent undue triggering of the
detector when reloading.
In addition to the previously detailed installation requirements, mobile home installations must meet the following
requirements:
• The heater must be permanently bolted to the oor through provided holes in the base.
• The heater must be electrically grounded to the steel chassis of the mobile home with 8 GA copper wire using
a serrated or star washer to penetrate paint or protective coating to ensure grounding.
• Vent must be 3 or 4-inch “PL” Vent and must extend a minimum or 36” (914mm) above the roof line of the
mobile home and must be installed using a certied ceiling re stop and rain cap.
• When moving your mobile home, all exterior venting must be removed while the mobile home is being
relocated. After relocation, all venting must be reinstalled and securely fastened.
• Outside Air is mandatory for mobile home installation. See your dealer for purchasing.
• Check with your local building ofcials as other codes may apply.
THROUGH THE ROOF/CEILING INSTALLATION
When venting the heater through the ceiling, the pipe is connected the same as through the wall, except the
clean-out tee is always on the inside of the house, and a 3”(76mm) adapter is added before the clean-out tee.
You must use the proper ceiling support anges and roof ashing (supplied by the pipe manufacturer; follow the
pipe manufacturer’s directions). It is important to note that if your vertical run of pipe is more than 15ft (4.57m),
the pellet vent pipe size should be increased to 4”(102mm) in diameter. Do not exceed more than 4ft (1.22m) of
pipe on a horizontal run and use as few elbows as possible. If an offset is required, it is better to install 45-degree
elbows rather than 90-degree elbows.
