Outside Air Connection; Mobile Home - CASTLE Serenity Instructions D'utilisation

Outside Air Connection

Connection from the intake pipe (2" diameter pipe in rear of stove,
See Figure 8) to the outside of the house is REQUIRED for mobile
home installation. It is recommended in tightly sealed homes
with exhaust fans such as kitchen or bathroom fans. This will
eliminate poor performance due to negative pressure.
Only noncombustible pipe 2" (or greater) in diameter is approved
to use for outside air connections (straight or flexible).
NOTE: PVC pipe is NOT approved and should NEVER be
connected to the stove.
HINT: A Castle Pellet Stove air inlet will accept
automotive exhaust pipes and couplers
If the air inlet is connected to the outside, it MUST be terminated
with a vertical 90 bend (down) or with a wind hood. Failure to do
º
so could result in a burn back during high winds blowing directly
up the air inlet during a simultaneous power failure.
Blockage, excessive length, or extra bends in the air intake pipe
will starve the stove of combustion air. A 90º bend is equivalent in
restriction to approximately 30" of straight inlet pipe.

Mobile Home

Installation in a mobile home should be in accordance with the
manufactured home and safety standard. Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD) CITE: 24CFR3280.707 stating
