England's Stove Works 25-PDV User Manual

When venting the stove 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” adapter is added before 
the clean-out tee.  You must use the proper ceiling support flanges and roof flashing supplied by 
the pipe manufacturer -- follow the pipe manufacturer’s directions and Illustration 1in this 
manual. It is important to note that if your vertical runs of pipe are more than fifteen feet (15’) at 
this point, the pellet vent pipe should be increased to four inches (4”) in diameter. Do not exceed 
four feet (4’) of pipe on a horizontal run, and do attempt to use the least number of elbows in the 
flue system. If an offset is used it is better to install a 45-degree elbow whenever possible.  
Please remember, installing elbows may inhibit your draft by up to 15% per elbow. 

 

     If you are replacing a wood stove with a pellet unit the chimney or pipe should be thoroughly 
cleaned before proceeding with the installation. The flue system should be either masonry or a 
UL approved pre-manufactured Class A flue system. The flue thimble should be either six 
inches (6”) or eight inches (8”) and the proper reducer (6” to 3” or 8” to 3”) can be purchased at 
your local dealer. Connect a three inch (3”) tee with clean-out to the pipe adapter -- seal this 
with high temperature stove cement, then extend your pipe to the installed reducer at the 
thimble. If the thimble is in the ceiling, the pipe will go straight up, but if the thimble is in the wall 
another 90-degree elbow will be required to make the connection. 

 

     Outside air is mandatory for this unit to operate properly. This unit has been designed and 
tested with this connection, because so many homes are airtight and there is not adequate 
combustion air available inside the dwelling. The air intake pipe is located on the bottom side of 
the burn pot (from the rear) and measures 1 ½” inside diameter (I.D.). The connection can be 
made with a metal 1

 ” I.D. coupler and pipe (see “Important Information” section of manual), 

and should exit through the wall.  Be sure to secure the pipe to the unit with a clamp or 
aluminum tape.  The outside end of the pipe should be covered (screened) to prevent foreign 
matter from entering the system.  

Our Outside Air Kit (Part Number PU-OAK) can be used.  

 If the 

unit is located below ground level, you will need to run the pipe up and then outside the 
dwelling.  NOTE:  If the total run of the connection exceeds 6’, if more than 2 elbows are used, 
or if a basement installation, use 3” metal pipe (and coupler) instead.  Note:  If an older unit, 
measure the opening to determine what size pipe to use or couple to. 

     Secure the heater to the floor using the two holes in the pedestal.  If the unit is on a 
combustible surface, you will need to drill matching holes in the floor protection that you choose 
(see Floor Protection section).  Do not disturb the structural integrity of the home, and be sure 
the unit is permanently electrically grounded to the chassis of your home.  Remember that 
outside combustion air is mandatory, and not to install the unit in a sleeping room of the home.
