4.0 INSTALLATION
NEVER INSTALL A SINGLE WALL SLIP SECTION OR SMOKE PIPE IN A CHASE STRUCTURE. THE HIGHER
TEMPERATURE OF THIS SINGLE WALL PIPE MAY RADIATE SUFFICIENT HEAT TO COMBUSTIBLE CHASE
MATERIALS TO CAUSE A FIRE.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS APPLIANCE TO A CHIMNEY SYSTEM SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
TO AVOID DANGER OF FIRE, ALL INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE STRICTLY FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE
PROVISION OF AIR SPACE CLEARANCE BETWEEN CHIMNEY SYSTEM AND ENCLOSURE. TO PROTECT
AGAINST THE EFFECTS OF CORROSION ON THOSE PARTS EXPOSED TO THE WEATHER, WE
RECOMMEND THAT THE CHASE TOP BE PAINTED WITH A RUST-RESISTANT PAINT.
DO NOT FILL ANY FRAMED SPACE AROUND THE CHIMNEY WITH INSULATION OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL.
INSULATION PLACED IN THIS AREA COULD CAUSE ADJACENT COMBUSTIBLES TO OVERHEAT.
MAINTAIN A MINIMUM 2" AIR CLEARANCE TO ALL PARTS OF THE CHIMNEY SYSTEM AT ALL TIMES.
FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THIS 2" AIR CLEARANCE WILL CAUSE A STRUCTURE FIRE. NEVER FILL THIS
SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.
DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION OF THE CHASE TOP, STORM COLLAR AND TERMINATION
CAP ARE PACKAGED WITH THESE PARTS.
DO NOT CUT RAFTERS OR CEILING JOISTS WITHOUT FIRST CONSULTING A BUILDING OFFICIAL TO
ENSURE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY IS NOT COMPROMISED.
FIRESTOP SPACERS MUST BE USED WHENEVER THE CHIMNEY PENETRATES A CEILING/FLOOR AREA.
THE TOTAL HORIZONTAL VENT LENGTH SHOULD NOT EXCEED 40% OF THE CHIMNEY HEIGHT ABOVE
THE STOVE. ALL HORIZONTAL SMOKE PIPE MUST SLOPE SLIGHTLY UPWARDS A MINIMUM OF 1/4” PER
FOOT AND ALL CONNECTIONS MUST BE TIGHT AND SECURED BY THREE SHEET METAL SCREWS
EQUALLY SPACED. AN UNINSULATED SMOKE PIPE SHALL NOT PASS THROUGH AN ATTIC, ROOF
SPACE, CLOSET OR SIMILAR CONCEALED SPACE, OR THROUGH A FLOOR, CEILING, WALL OR
PARTITION, OR ANY COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTIONS.
DO NOT USE ANY MAKESHIFT MATERIALS DURING INSTALLATION.
