Breckwell sp1000pb Manual Do Proprietário

For a mobile home installation the stove must be connected to an 
outside source of combustion air. A 2” inside diameter metallic 
pipe, either flexible or rigid, may be attached to the inlet at the 
stove’s rear (refer to figure 3).  A rodent guard (minimum ¼” wire 
mesh)/wind hood must be used at the terminus (refer to figure 4). 
All connections must be secured and airtight by either using the 
appropriately sized hose clamp and/or UL-181-AP foil tape.  

For mobile home installations only: 2” inside diameter pipe 
may be used for the first 5 feet of combustion air supply run. From 
5 to 10 feet use 2 ¾” inside diameter pipe. No combustion air 
supply may exceed 10 feet. 

Sources of Outside Combustion Air 
a. 

In fireplaces 

•

 

Chimney top. 

•

 

Ash clean out door. 

b. 

For freestanding installations 

•

 

A hole in floor near stove rear terminating only in a 
ventilated crawl space. 

•

 

A hole in the wall behind the stove. 

If outside air is not used, it is important that combustion air is 
easily available to the air inlet. A closeable outside air register can 
be used in tightly insulated homes. 

The Big E is certified for use with listed TYPE L-Vent, 3” or 4” 
diameter in size. The stove was tested with Simpson Duravent 
brand. Class “A” chimney is not required. Refer to the instructions 
provided by the vent manufacturer, especially when passing 
through a wall, ceiling or roof. 

This is a pressurized exhaust system. All vent connector joints 
must be sealed with 500

°

F (260

°

C) RTV silicone sealant to 

ensure consistent performance and avoid smoke spillage. All 
horizontal connector joints must be sealed with UL-181-AP foil 
tape. We recommend that all vertical vent connector joints be 
secured with a minimum of 3 screws.
