WARNING: 

DO NOT CONNECT THE 
STOVE TO A CHIMNEY 
FLUE SERVING 
ANOTHER APPLIANCE. 

 
Make sure the size of the 
chimney’s flue is appropriate for 
the Bennington.  The Bennington 
requires a 6" (152 mm) inside 
diameter flue for new 
installations.  A 6” diameter flue 
provides adequate draft and 
performance.  You can use an 8" 
(203 mm) diameter existing flue 
with a reducer.  An oversized 
flue contributes to creosote 
accumulation.  (In this case, 
bigger is NOT better.) 
 
When purchasing a prefabricated 
chimney to install with your 
stove, be sure to also purchase 
from the same manufacturer the 
wall pass-through (or ceiling 
support package), "T" section 
package, fire-stops (when 
needed), insulation shield, roof 
flashing, chimney cap, and any 
other needed accessories.  Follow 
the manufacturer’s instructions 
when installing the chimney and 
accessories.  In addition, be sure 
to maintain all manufacturers’ 
recommendations for the proper 
clearances to the chimney. 
 
There are basically two ways to 
install a prefabricated metal 
chimney: 

• 

An 

interior

 installation 

where the chimney passes 
inside the residence through 
the ceiling and roof.  

 

• 

An 

exterior

 installation 

where the chimney passes 
through the wall behind the stove 
 then up the outside of the residence.  

 
Whenever possible, choose an interior chimney.  An 
interior chimney heats up more quickly and retains its 
heat; thus promotes a better draft and dis courages the 
formation of creosote.  An exterior chimney does not 
benefit from the warmth of being surrounded by the 
 
 

 
 
 
 
building, so it typically operates at lower flue 
temperatures than an interior chimney.  An exterior 
chimney’s draft is not as strong and may experience 
increased creosote accumulation.
