PP38+ Pellet Stove
Place the stove on a noncombustible oor or on a oor
protector that extends a minimum of 6 inches (152mm) to
the front, (measured from the glass) 6 inches (152mm) to the
sides and 1 inch (25mm) to the rear of the hopper. It is also
recommended that oor protection be installed under any
horizontal venting and extending 2 inches (50mm)beyond the
vent measurement. Material used for oor protection must
have a k-factor of 2.24 or lower. Example: 1" thickness of
Durock® is rated at 1.92 k per inch, which would meet the
requirement.
Place the stove away from combustible walls at least as
far as shown in Figures 3,4 and 5. Note the difference in side
wall clearance with and without optional side shields.
Connect the power cord to a 120 V.A.C. 60Hz properly
grounded receptacle. (A surge protector is recommended to
protect the circuit board.)
Prior to installing the ue pipe, connect a draft meter. (The
draft meter must have a minimum range of 0 to -0.5 Inches
Water Column.) Record the rst reading. Connect ue pipe
to stove and be sure all doors and windows in the home are
closed. Record the second draft reading_______. If the
second reading is more than .05" lower than the rst reading,
check for possible restrictions in the venting conguration or
the need for outside air (see page 9). For more information
on the draft test procedure, refer to Page 19.
When installing this unit in a mobile home, several
requirements must be followed:
1. The unit must be bolted to the oor. This can be done with
1/4" lag screws through the 2 holes in the base plate.
2. The unit must also be connected to outside air. See page 9.
3. Floor protection and clearances must be followed as
shown.
4. Unit must be grounded to the metal frame of the mobile
home.
Due to high temperatures, the stove should be placed out
of trafc and away from furniture and draperies.
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high
surface temperatures and should stay away to avoid burns
to skin and/or clothing.
Young children should be carefully supervised when they
are in the same room as the stove.
Clothing and other ammable materials should not be placed
on or near this unit.
