Hello.

Can a pellet stove be safely vented to the outside beneath a deck? Turns out the best place for a pellet stove in my basement would put the vent beneath my front deck. Additionally, the exhaust would be a little less than 3' above mulch ground cover. Looking at the vent install information on the Harman site, 3' is the recommended (code required?) distance. Would love some feedback on this.

I've been debating wood vs. pellet, and want pellet for many reasons, and the desired spot in the basement puts the vent beneath the deck and the close to the mulch could be the deal breaker.

Thanks,

Chris
 
agree with pook......extend the vent to where it exits the underneath of the deack, also ensuring its greater than 3' above the ground as well.......
