Once you have properly marked the position 
of your unit and the fl oor protection as outlined 
in the Residential Installation items #1 through 
#8, a supply of fresh air has to be supplied to 
your unit. 

Place your unit in position and secure it to the 
fl oor using four lag bolts 1/4" through the four 
holes inside the legs.  It is important to maintain 
the structural integrity of the Mobile Home fl oor, 
walls and roof when installing your unit.

For Mobile Home units installed in the U.S. the 
unit must be grounded using a #8 ground wire 
with approved termination and star washer.

In addition to standard installation instructions 
the following requirements are mandatory for 
installation in a mobile home.

1)   The stove must be permanently bolted to 

the fl oor of the Mobile Home using the fl oor 
screws provided.

2)   The stove must have a permanent outside 

air source for combustion.

3)   The stove must be electrically grounded to 

the steel chassis of the Mobile Home. 

4)  A listed double-wall connector chimney 

system, roof thimble, spark arrestor and 
roof fl ashing kit suitable for use in Mobile 
Homes must be used.

5)   If the chimney exits the Mobile Home at a 

location other than through the roof, and exits 
at a point 7ft. (2130mm) or less above the 
ground level on which the Mobile Home is 
positioned a guard or method of enclosing 
the chimney shall be fi tted at the point of 
exit for a height up to 7ft. (2130mm).

6)   The chimney shall be attached directly to 

the room heater and shall extend at least 
3 ft. (914mm) above the part of the roof 
through which it passes. The top of the 
chimney should project at least 2ft. (610mm) 
above the highest elevation of any part of 
the Mobile Home within 10 ft. (3048mm) of 
the chimney.

7)    The chimney system shall comply with Local 

Requirements.

8)   Any openings in a chimney guard where 

required must not permit the entrance of 
3/4" (19mm) diameter rod.

10) Check any other local building code as other 

local codes may apply.

11) WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEP-

12) Use silicone to create an effective vapour 

barrier at the location where the chimney or 
other component penetrates to the exterior 
of the structure.

If desired, the air for combustion may be drawn 
directly from the outside of the house, as detailed 
below. It is not obligatory to do this, but it may 
help combustion in small or poorly ventilated 
house.

Connect a 4" (100 mm) diameter stainless steel, 
or other non-combustible corrosion resistant 
material, to the O.S.A hook-up box. In order to do 
this the O.S.A hook-up box must be connected to 
the base using 1/2" (12 mm) hex head bolts.

Run the pipe (up to 54" (1372 mm) long) to the 
outside avoiding sharp bends and joints within 
cavity walls. Turn the end down and fi t corrosion 
resistant mesh to prevent the entry of leaves 
and rodents. Seal the penetration of the outside 
wall with silicon.
