Breckwell P23FSA Owner's Manual

The longer the run of pipe in your installation (both with insert and 
freestanding models), the more restriction there is in the system. 
Therefore, larger diameter pipe should be used. 

•

 

Use 4” pipe if you have more than 15 feet of equivalent vent 
length. 

•

 

Horizontal runs shall not exceed 10 feet of EVL. 

•

 

Recommended vertical runs to be a minimum of 8 feet. 

•

 

To calculate EVL, use the following conversions: 

90º elbow or “T”  

= 5 equivalent feet 

45º elbow 

 

= 3 equivalent feet 

Horizontal Pipe Run 

= 1 equivalent foot per actual foot 

Vertical Pipe Run 

= 0.5 equivalent foot per actual foot 

NOTE: At altitudes above 3,000 feet, we suggest the use of 4” 
diameter vent at an EVL of 7 feet or more. 

If using a pedestal, follow the instructions inside the Breckwell P23 
Pedestal w/ Ashpan Part # A-P23-PNEW 
(Refer to figure 8). 

If using cast legs, follow the instructions inside the Breckwell P23 
Leg Set w/ Ashpan Part # A-CGL-NEW or # A-CL-NEW. 

Legs are installed by using the four bolts provided in the kit into the 
four holes under the stove at each corner, thread on nuts from the 
top and tighten. Make sure to save the hole plugs. 

NOTE: If converting from legs to pedestal the hole plugs must be 
installed in the unused holes.
