Install question

[mellow]

This proposed install location for the pellet stove venting is a no go due to the door correct? That door is not used and is a secondary door to the front.

I would contact you local code inspection person and talk abot your installation. Where i live the door would have to be removed and wall rebuilt. Not to mention the window is close too

Possibly up through the ceiling & roof.

Thanks for the replies, that is what I figured, opening window within 4ft and the door is icing on the cake. Might have to look at a wiseway since it has a top exhaust.

Just curious....how does a top exhaust change anything?

Closer to the wall vs a rear exit and having to tee up.

And the wiseway has to go straight up through the roof. They dont like bends in the vent. So im missing something here

Going straight up in that corner install would be the only choice I have. I would have the clearances for going straight up and out and not have the stove in the middle of the room.

Stove clearance to combustibles varies from stove to stove. Usually around 16”. Venting is usually 1-3. A top vent stove will need to be the same distances from the walls as a rear vent. I still don’t understand your thinking.

Looking at doing a corner install something like this minus the dreaded magic heat.

My Wiseway non electric stove experience

Here are the minimum clearance requirements for the wiseway

Here’s my point. This is for a Serenity stove. Note the corner clearance is the same for a thru the wall, or vertical vent. Just because a stove is a top vent....doesn’t mean it will take up less floor space.

 

[Ssyko]

You would use the same if not a bit more floorspace with the wiseway
