TO MAINTAIN REQUIRED CLEARANCES (AIR SPACES) TO

COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS. IT IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE

THAT DOUBLE WALL SECURE PELLET BE INSTALLED ONLY IN

ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

NOTE:

Read through all of these instructions before

beginning your installation. Failure to install

as described in this instruction will void the

manufacturer’s warranty, and may have an

effect on your homeowner’s insurance and

UL listing status. Keep these instructions for

future reference. This booklet also contains

instructions for installing a venting system

within an existing masonry chimney, and

for installations passing through a cathedral

ceiling.

VENTING SYSTEM FOR PELLET, CORN, OIL, AND BIOFUEL APPLIANCES.

CLEARANCES AND APPLICATIONS

Security Chimney's Secure Pellet is listed by

Underwriters Laboratories as vent for listed

appliances that burn oil, pellet, corn, and other

biofuels. Secure Pellet is also listed as a

masonry reliner with the minimum clearance 0”

from vent to masonry, and 0” clearance from

the masonry to nearby combustibles. Never ll

any required clearance space with insulation

or any other materials (except insulation

explicitly approved by Security as noted

below). Combustible materials include (but

are not limited to) lumber, plywood, sheetrock,

plaster and lath, furniture, curtains, electrical

wiring, and building insulation except that

noted below.

In the United States and Canada the minimum

clearance to combustibles from Secure

Pellet is 1” for oil, pellet, corn or other biofuel

applications.

NON-COMBUSTIBLE INSULATION

Security Chimney approves the eld

application of non-combustilble insulation

within the clearance to combustible distance

(in wall thimbles or support boxes only) if/when

desirable. Approved insulation must be listed

/ compliant with ASTM E136/ULC S114 as

Non-Combustible, have a melting temperature

above 2000°F/1100°C, be water resistant with

low moisture absorbtion and be acceptable to

the AHJ. Materials would include those made

from stone (aka “rockwool” or “mineral wool”

insulations). NOTE- Fiberglass insulation is

NOT approved!

VENT LISTING

Secure Pellet is listed by Underwriters

Laboratories to UL 641 Type L Low

Temperature Venting Systems, ULC S609

Low Temperature Vents, and ULC/ORD-C441

Standard for Pellet Vents .

INSTALLATION NOTES

Proper planning for your Secure Pellet

installation will result in greater safety,

efciency, and convenience, saving both time

and money. Use only authorized Security

Chimney and DuraVent listed parts. Do not

install damaged parts.

1. WARNING: When passing through ceilings

and walls, make sure all combustible materials

and combustible building insulation products

are a minimum of 1” from the vent pipe

2. For horizontal terminations, make sure

NFPA 211 rules are followed for minimum

distance from windows and openings.

3. Do not mix and match with other

manufacturer’s products or improvised

solutions.

4. Practice good workmanship. Sloppy

work could jeopardize your Secure Pellet

installation.

5. Never use a vent with an inside diameter

that is smaller than the appliance ue outlet.

6. Multistory: Where Secure Pellet passes

through the ceiling, use Security Chimney's

Firestop/Support assembly.

7. Vent placement: When deciding the

location of your stove and vent, try to minimize

the alteration and reframing of structural

components of the building.

8. Sections of pipe are connected to each

other by pushing them rmly together and

twisting. Screws are not required. However, if

screws are desired, use 1/4”-long sheet metal

screws. Important! Do not penetrate the inner

liner with screws.

9. Never install single-wall pipe to freestanding

pellet stoves. Single-wall pipe may be

connected to a replace insert, provided it

is inside the replace, and the replace has

completely sealed surroundings.

10. Do not connect Type B Gas Vent pipe with

aluminum liners to pellet appliances.

LUBRICANTS & GASKETS

Secure Pellet utilizes an internal O-ring

gasket on the outside of the inner liner in the

female end of the Pipe Section. Depending on

production date, these gaskets may be factory

lubricated or eld lubricated with soapy water

/ anti-seize. If your O-ring gasket is missing

or it becomes damaged during connection,

you must replace and lubricate the new O-ring

gasket.

SEALANTS

Secure Pellet does not require additional

sealant to be used at pipe joints, but in certain

circumstances sealant may be used if desired.

Seal the inner liner overlap at the male end of

pipe for best results (Figure 6)

Note: 500ºF RTV silicone sealant is required

on the following component connections:

• Connecting certain Appliance

Adapters or other non-gasketed

parts to the appliance outlet

• When using the Adjustable Length

section.

FUEL SELECTION, BEST

PRACTICES

Secure Pellet is a multi-fuel venting

system approved for burning wood

pellets, corn, and other approved biofuels,

plus, oil and kerosene. Be sure to follow

the recommendations of the appliance

manufacturer for the burning of corn or other

types of biofuel. A major reason for accelerated

vent corrosion from burning corn is due to

acidic condensate forming in the system.

The moisture content of corn contributes

signicantly to condensate in the vent. The

lower the moisture content of the corn, the less

condensate you are likely to have in the vent.

While corn with a moisture content of 15%

may be allowed in the appliance, using a fuel

with lower moisture content will help reduce

condensate formation.

Vent Runs: Condensate is more likely to

form in longer vents because the exhaust

temperature cools further away from the

appliance. If the exhaust cools to a certain

point, moisture in the exhaust condenses

in the vent, which can lead to accelerated

vent corrosion. Keep the vent for corn-

burning appliances short wherever possible

to maintain hot ue gas temperatures and

keep moisture suspended in the exhaust. If a

longer horizontal vent or taller vertical vent is

needed, it is recommended that the vent run

inside the building envelope or inside a chase

enclosure to minimize the vent’s exposure to

cold temperatures. When terminating a corn

burning system horizontally a stainless steel

outer Pipe Section and the Round Horizontal

Termination Cap are required. Be sure to

follow all other applicable building codes

and maintain all minimum clearances in

enclosures.

Appliance Operation: Regardless of the fuel

you choose always operate your appliance in

accordance with the appliance manufacturer’s

recommendations. If you burn corn, operating

the appliance at its lowest setting has a greater

chance for condensate to form in the vent due

to the low exhaust temperature. In order to

help reduce condensate from forming inside

the vent system, operate the appliance at

higher temperatures when colder weather is

Figure 1

encountered. Higher operation settings provide

for warmer ue temperatures, which help to

keep moisture suspended in the ue gases.

Inspection and Maintenance: When burning

corn, be sure to inspect the appliance and

vent often to determine if there has been any

corrosion or damage to the system. Be sure

to keep the venting system clean, including

the tee cap (if applicable). The ash that results

from burning corn can trap condensate in

the tee cap and inside the vent, hastening

corrosion to the system if left unchecked.

Using pelletized fuel does not eliminate the

need for inspection and cleaning. Lesser

quality pellets create more soot accumulation

and can clog venting sooner than the cleaner

burning pellets. While it is not necessary to

clean out liquid fuel burning systems with a

brush, all other systems should be visually

inspected monthly during the heating season,

and cleaned at least once a year

C. Connect Pipe Adapter or Increaser Adapter

to stove: Due to the variety of different stove

collars, the Pipe Adapter will need high-

temperature non-hardening sealant in order to

achieve a leak-free connection. .

D. Connect Pipe Sections. Attach Secure

Pellet Pipe Sections by pushing male and

female ends of pipe together and twisting until

pipe is in locked position (Figure 4). Pipe

sections do not require any sealant; however

in certain instances high temp silicone sealant

may be used. Seal connection where the

inner liners overlap for best results (Figure 5).

Screws are not needed, but 1/4” screws can

be used if desired, however, be sure you do

not penetrate the inner liner.

E. When the pipe passes through the Ceiling

Support Firestop Spacer at ceiling, tighten

bolt and clamp around pipe. Where the vent

passes through additional oors and ceilings,

always install a Ceiling Support Firestop

Spacer.

F. ALWAYS MAINTAIN AT LEAST 1”

CLEARANCE FROM COMBUSTIBLE

MATERIALS TO THE VENT PIPE.

G. When the Vent enters the attic, install an

Attic Insulation Shield around the vent (Figure

6). This will prevent insulation and debris

from collecting near the vent pipe. Use (4)

nails or wood screws to secure the base of the

Attic Insulation Shield to the framed opening.

Adjust the height of the Attic Insulation Shield

by sliding the top cylindrical shield over the

one from the base. Ensure that the top of the

Shield is above the level of building insulation.

Secure the Shield in place with at least two

(2) sheet metal screws through the side of the

cylindrical shield. Attach collar around pipe,

then lower to the top of the Attic Insulation

shield.

H. After lining up for the hole in roof, using

the same method as 2. (B), cut either a round

or square hole in the roof (Figure 7). Always

cut the hole with the proper clearance to the

vent pipe. Install the upper edge and sides

of Flashing under the roong materials and

nail to the roof along the upper edge and

sides (Figure 8). Do not nail across the lower

edge. Seal all nail heads with non-hardening

waterproof sealant.

I. To nish, apply non-hardening waterproof

sealant where the Storm Collar will meet the

vent and Flashing; slide Storm Collar down

until it rests upon the Roof Flashing (Figure 9).

Holding the base of Cap, rmly twist lock your

Vertical Termination Cap onto supported Pipe

Section protruding through the roof line.

3. If the ue exits on back of stove and an

interior installation is desired (Figure 10):

A. Place the appliance according to the

manufacturer’s instructions.

B. Connect the Tee Adapter or combine Tee

with Cleanout and Pipe Adapter then seal and

secure the Pipe Adapter to the back of the

stove.

C. Continue to assemble Pipe Sections as

described in Step 2.

4. If the ue exit is on the back of stove, and

an exterior vertical installation or partial vertical

installation is desired (Figure 11):

A. Place the appliance according to

manufacturer’s instructions.

B. Cut and frame a square opening in the

wall as specied in Table 1. Secure Pellet can

be installed with the standard Wall Thimble

or Wall Thimble Air Intake Kit for through the

wall installations. The Wall Thimble Air Intake

Kit allows combustion air to be drawn through

the framed Thimble opening, eliminating the

need to cut another opening in wall. The small

ex provided with this kit allows connection

to the Pellet Stove combustion air inlet. Note

that when installing the Wall Thimble Air

Intake Kit, the pipe will not be centered within

the framed opening. Loosely assemble both

halves of the Wall Thimble onto Pipe Section.

Connect the exible hose with clamp to the

exterior half of the Wall Thimble. Guide the

ex through the opening in black interior half

of Wall Thimble, gently pull the ex towards

appliance (Figure 12), and if necessary trim
