pelpro pp60 anybody have one?

I sure hope so....

 

Yup I read that too... I have an igniter and a control board on the way already as backup. The board the previous owner had laying around for that reason. I ordered a backup igniter because it makes sense lol. I know there are smart gov employees however my county has very few inspectors and they pull multiple duties. As I said this inspector is a decent guy but very much by the book aka manual pics... I'll be honest I'm not even sure he will go by the video because it's not in the manual he's that strict. The last inspector literally spewed bonus facts at every turn! ( otherwise known as BS lol)

 

Um well no............ Lol I like my firewood A LOT! It's not broke more like we budget very tightly and I rarely go over.

I will look into the NFI certified person tomorrow! Thx for that. When you say top feeder what do you mean? It has augur that pulls the pellets an an upward angle and drops them down but the pellets pour into the top.

Ready for a shocker! Same parent co as harman that threw me off...

http://www.nehpba.com/Resources/Documents/Sponsor News/Hearth _ Home.pdf I've already had better service by 100000000000 times what I had with that disastrous tl300 we owned lol. That threw me for a loop I couldn't get a human on the other end for over a month with harman then when I did I was told your wrong over and over. Man that ticked me off. It's why we dumped that pos for our Jotul. I'm still guessing the pelpro sucks but time will tell....

 

Thanks for all the help guys id be totally lost without you....

 

Well he wouldnt go for the video manual only... So I made as short a run as possible straight out and up. Tomorrow ill finish the pipe and be done. I anchored the hearth and set the stove too so thats finished. Now I need to get the oak kit installed tomorrow as well. It shouldnt take too long I dont think. I purchased some snazy hole cutter bits. Pretty sure I need to move the phone lines ver too... I'm not done anchoring or caulking yet thats all tomorrow. Its gonna look like a pro job when I get done!

 

If I could make one suggestion. . My Quadrafire was that close in the corner. Not getting behind the stove to service it was a PITA. I would add a 1 ft section on the stove adapter and push that stove 1 ft further out on the Hearth.

You have more than enough room to accomplish it. Otherwise, disconnecting the pipe every year will be a Pain, and you will ad that extra foot next year.

I can get behind all my stoves now and work on them. Much easier to service/clean.

 

Other than that, it looks great Pete! Good job!

Make sure to get a good Surge protector.

Tripp-Lite makes a good one. It's called the UltraBlok. They are pretty cheap on eBay and have good protection. Comes in white or black. I have a black one downstairs and the white one upstairs.

 

Very good suggestions indeed I hadnt even thought about the extending pipe..... thanks bro!

 

Yeah its gonna cost more for another one foo section, but it is going to "save" you a lot of frustration.

That is one downfall for a pellet stove. You must have adequate space to work on it. The Manufacturer has minimum guidelines, but if you follow those (what I did on my first stove), you will be very unhappy when it comes time to clean..

The 45° piece will stay right there and your stove will still be centered on the Hearth. It will just move further out (you should still have Plenty of room for the front clearance).

 

Larry it's 3" exhaust. The stove can take 4 but with the run I have to make it won't need it.... Most of it is free from 343amc and what came with it. I did have to buy 2 90's and a clean out T. Tomorrow I'm gonna go get the last 24" section to get a ft above the window and a 1' to extend the stove out. I read somewhere to use RTV sealant on the pipe inside and out is that right?

 

They are not that much more in the long run. I have enough room to move forward a ft. barely but enough so I'm going for it. I do like a big hearth the one I built for my wood stove is enormous lol...

 

Only need to seal the vent on the inside. If the exterior leaks, it doesn't matter.

I wouldn't seal it at first. Check for leaks and smell for smoke.

What is your venting set up?

EVL chart is as follows

Each piece or foot has a number. You add those up and it equals your EVL.

1- 90° or Clean out T = 5'
1- 45° = 2.5'
1 ft of horizontal = 1'
1 ft of vertical = .5'


So 5 ft of vertical would equal 2.5'
Or 3 ft of horizontal would equal 3'
Two 90°'s would he 10'.

What I posted above is an EVL of 15.5'. Max EVL for 3" is 15'. Anything over needs to be 4" so the stove can breathe. Just because a pellet stove has a powered/pressured exhaust, doesn't mean it can be super long or have a lot of bends. Every bend puts extra strain on the stove to "push" it out.


Your vertical outside would be less restrictive if you used a 45° to angle out and not hit the gutter to go above it. Adding another 90° or two 90°'s will take you way over 15'.

 

Ummmm lets see here...

1- 3' peice
1-5' peice
1-45°peice
1- cleanout T
1-1' peice
And a 90 at the top

I think thats it. So 12.5' I think....
