Phoenix Model 8612 where the stove is located. With outside air supplied directly to the stove, drafts within the room and air infiltration within the building are reduced. Use of the outside air kit may also improve stove performance in a particularly airtight house, or when several other air-exhausting appliances are present. Before installing the kit, determine where the duct for the outside air will terminate. The duct can terminate from the back center of the ash dump box or the center of the right side of the ash dump box by changing the position of the screw-on plates and the adaptor.
Ensure the termination of the duct on the outside wall of the structure is located in such a manner to prevent the possibility of obstruction by snow, leaves or other material. Screen the duct opening against animals and insects. The termination should be screened using ј” x ј” mesh metal screen and be covered with a rain/wind proof hood (flex pipe, outside termination, mesh, and hood supplied by others. Contact your dealer for availability). The outside air kit for this stove allows for the direct connection of the stove's air intake to a minimum 3" (76 mm) diameter duct (supplied by others) which leads to the outside of the house.
When considering placement of the duct from the outside of the house to the hearth, keep in mind the need to avoid structural members of the house. The outside air kit will attach to the bottom of the stove. Hearthstone Quality Home Heating Products, Inc ® www.hearthstonestoves.com 9
