I. Installation And Operation Manual
This heater is suitable for both mobile home and conventional home installations. Read
all instructions carefully before starting installation. Save this manual for future refer-
ence.
1. Preamble : Instructions for Safe Installation and Operation.
1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow them could cause
malfunction or damage to the heater, property damage, bodily injury
and even death.
2. Familiarize yourself with the operation of the heater. (See “Heater
Operation” section). If you are not sure, ask your dealer for explana-
tions on your heater’s operation.
3. The burn pot of this heater is designed for premium grade wood pellets.
Pellets with too much fines and saw dust must be screened before use.
DO NOT USE WET PELLETS. High ash content fuel will clog the
burn pot holes and, as a result, the burn pot will require frequent
cleaning.
4. Oil the motor bearings every 6 months. See “Maintenance” section for
more details.
5. Check your local building codes. All installations must comply with
their rulings.
6. This heater requires a minimum 6 inch (150 mm) floor protector in
front of the heater. This is to catch any spillage that may occur during
opening and closing of the door.
7. Use only UL/ULC listed Type Pl or Type L venting for the exhaust
system. The heater is designed for use with 3 inch (76 mm) vent pipe.
Avoid using long runs and too many bends. It may be necessary to
increase the size of venting to 4 inches (102 mm) if long runs and too
many bends are unavoidable. See “Venting System” for more details.
8. Combustion of wood pellet fuel deposits ashes in the heater and venting
system. These ashes must be removed from the heater regularily
(apporximately once a week). If a high ash content fuel is used,
cleaning must be done on a more frequent basis. The entire system
must also be cleaned at the start of each heating season. A yearly
inspection of the venting is highly recommended.

Page 5
9. The heater must be turned off and allowed to cool before cleaning.
Make sure there are no hot ashes or embers in the burn pot, ash tray or
combustion chamber. Use a brush and scoop to clean. DO NOT USE
A VACUUM CLEANER.
10. This heater is POWER VENTED. The vent pipes have positive
pressure during operation. It is IMPERATIVE that all joints in the
venting system be sealed to prevent any leakage of exhaust gases
inside the house. All joints must be sealed using high temperature
silicone sealer (RTV).
11. Store pellet fuel at a safe distance (at least 36 inches/1 meter) away
from the heater.
12. Use of outside combustion air is MANDATORY (unless an APR Part
No CV100 check valve is used). Connect the air intake of the heater to
the exterior of the building with a non-combustible metal pipe with a
minimum diameter of 2 inches (50 mm). Use of plastic pipe is not
permitted.
13. Follow this manual carefully for proper installation. If you are
uncertain, call your dealer. Most of the dealers have qualified and
trained installers. We highly recommend the use of their services.

2.4 Other Clearances and Recommendations
1. This heater can be mounted on a combustible floor provided that a non-
combustible material, extending minimum of 6 inches (150 mm) in
front of the heater, protects the combustible floor.
2. When installed in a mobile home, the heater must be anchored to the
floor.
3. For a pictorial view of clearances to combustibles, see the safety test
label attached to your stove. A copy of this label is provided here.

Page 7
INSTALLATION COMMENT: We recommend that sufficient space be
provided (minimum 20 inches/500 mm) on each side of the heater to ser-
vice the equipment area. In case this is not possible, provisions must be
made to pull out the heater for service.
FLOOR PROTECTION: A non-combustible material, extending a mini-
mum of 6 inches (150 mm) in front of the heater is required.
3. Electrical Requirements
1. This heater is an electrical appliance and requires 120 Volts, 60 cycle, 3
Amp of electrical power.
2. This heater comes with a 5 ft. (1.5 M) long, grounded, electrical cord
suitable to plug into any standard residential electrical outlet. The
electrical outlet must be grounded.
3. When installed in a mobile home, the heater must be grounded to the
steel chassis of the home (unless this is not required by local code).
4. Venting System
Before proceeding with the installation, the following sections should be reviewed:
Section 4 : Venting System
Section 5 : Location of the Heater
Section 6 : Typical Installation Configurations
4.1 Exhaust Vent Pipe Requirements
KOZI pellet stoves have a negative pressure burn chamber. A high-pressure, radial
blade fan pulls the air out of the burn chamber creating negative pressure (vacuum)
inside the burn chamber. The air from outside the stove then rushes through the intake
air tube, burn pot stand and burn pot to fill this vacuum. As this air passes through the
burn pot it is used to burn the pellets. A proper size ULC/UL listed type PL or L venting
should be used to provide the least resistance for movement of the combustion air.
This KOZI pellet burner is certified for 3 inch exhaust venting. 3 inch venting is quite
sufficient for most direct vent installations. However, installations with several elbows,
long horizontal and/or vertical runs may add excessive resistance against the flow of air,
which reduces the volume of air movement and creates burn problems. Use of 4 inch
venting will reduce this resistance. A simple technique called ‘EQUIVALENT VENT
LENGTH (EVL)’ can be used to determine whether 3 or 4 inch vent pipe should be used.

Page 8
To calculate EVL use following formula:
for each 90 Elbow or T fitting = add 5 EVL
for each 45 Elbow = add 3 EVL
for each Horizontal run of vent = add 1 EVL per foot of horizontal venting
for each Vertical run of vent = add 1/2 EVL per foot of vertical venting
YOU MUST USE 4” STAINLESS STEEL RIGID OR FLEXIBLE VENT PIPE IF:
The EVL is 7 or more AND your are at or above an altitude of 3000 ft.
OR
The EVL is 15 or more
OR
Your unit is an Insert
DO NOT USE MAKESHIFT MATERIALS OR COMPRO-
MISES IN THE INSTALLATION. IT IS A FIRE HAZARD.
Exhaust vent pipes are located on the exhaust side of the exhaust fan and are under
positive pressure. Care must be taken to ensure that all joints are completely sealed to
prevent any leakage of exhaust fumes into the house. If you smell smoke, the venting
has not been properly sealed. Use only high temperature RTV silicone for sealing.
4.2 Combustion Air Intake Requirements
A. It is mandatory to use outside air for combustion in ALL mobile or
manufactured home installations.
B. Conventional homes may use APR Part No: CV100 check valve in
order to use internal combustion air. If a check valve is not used, the
air intake of this heater must be connected to the exterior of the
building using a non-combustible metal pipe, with a minimum 2 inch
(50mm) diameter. Use of plastic pipes are not permitted.
C. The combustion air intake must terminate into a vented space, i.e.
outside, vented attic, or vented crawl space. This heater CAN NOT
draw air from a closed space such as a closed garage, airtight crawl
space or any other sealed room.
D. The elevation of the combustion air intake must be below the exhaust
vent. An elbow may be used to lower the air intake point below that of
the exhaust vent.
F. Excessive lengths and elbows on the air intake pipe will cause airflow
restrictions. A minimum of 2 inch, or larger, venting should be used
for longer lengths. Increase the venting size as needed.

Page 9
4.3 Exhaust Vent Termination Requirements
A. The exhaust vent must terminate into an open space. Under no
circumstances is the vent allowed to terminate into closed or semi-
closed spaces. Venting into a garage, under a sundeck, porch or any
other space where the concentration of fumes may occur is prohibited.
B. The exhaust vent must be at least:
* 4 feet (1.2 m) below
* 4 feet (1.2 m) horizontally from, and
* 1 foot (0.30m) above
any opening in the building such as door, window or ventilation air
intake, etc.
C. Exhaust vent opening must be minimum of:
* 1 foot (0.3m) from the ground
* 24 inches (0.61m) from any combustible surface, i.e. fences, plants,
combustible objects, etc.
* 7 feet (2.1 m) from any public walkway.
D. Exhaust air is EXTREMELY HOT. Caution must be taken to avoid
contact with children, people, plants, animals or any other object that
will be affected by heat. It is recommended to use a vertical pipe to
discharge the hot air at a safe elevation.
E. Exhaust venting must be installed in accordance to the instructions
provided by your pellet vent manufacturer.
F. The vent terminal must have an end cap to protect against down draft
and back draft created by severe wind conditions.
5. Location of the Heater
A. This heater is NOT approved for bedroom installation.
B. If installed in a mobile home, the heater must be anchored to the floor.

Page 10
C. When installed in a conventional or a mobile home, check for:
a. Clearance to combustibles. d. Power within 6 feet (1.8m)
b. Sufficient room to service the unit. e. Access for exhaust venting.
c. Access for outside combustion air. f. EVL not exceeding 25ft (7.6m)
See Exhaust Venting Require-
ments.
