Setting up the Phoenix to burn air from outside the house

OUTSIDE AIR SUPPLIED FROM VENTILATED CRAWLSPACE
Bolt optional outside air adapter to Phoenix at bottom rear. Attach a length of 3" rigid or flexible aluminum pipe to the intake collar with a 3" pipe clamp, then elbow down through a 3-1/8" hole in the floor behind the stove, extending the pipe below the floor joists and insulation. Caulk around the pipe where it penetrates the floor and use silicone cement to glue on a piece of 1/4" wire rodent mesh at the bottom.
OUTSIDE AIR SUPPLIED THROUGH BACKWALL
Bolt optional outside air adapter to Phoenix at bottom rear. Attach a length of 3" rigid or flexible aluminum intake pipe to the intake collar with a 3" pipe clamp, extend through a 3-1/8" hole in the outside wall behind the stove. Attach a standard 3" dryer vent termination on the outside of the wall, removing the flapper plate and substituting a piece of 1/4" rodent mesh silicone-cemented in place.

Fireplace Hearth Installations:

Use a short length of 6" stainless liner pipe to connect the stove to a stainless tee with a cap on the bottom. On the roof, attach a rigid - flex connector to the bottom of a length of flexible stainless and snake it down through the damper, plugging it into the tee at the bottom (cut out the damper assembly to make room if necessary). Use high-temp silicone sealant to attach a stainless sealer plate to the top of the chimney, and complete the installation with a storm collar and rain cap at the top.
