Stove Pipe Installation
1.
Minimum clearance to combustibles must be maintained as shown in Figure 4.
2.
Combustible wall and ceiling materials include wood, cloth, vinyl, paper, etc. Wood
covered with plastic is also considered combustible. The 24” clearance for the
stove also applies for plain stovepipe used in constructing the chimney pipe. Clear-
ance is applicable to the parallel wall or from the ceiling either when the wall is un-
protected or when 3/8” insulated millboard is affixed to the wall without spacing.
3.
Select a spot for the stove. Inspect the area that a stovepipe will be running
through to connect with the existing chimney, Use an insulated connector if a
combustible wall is between the chimney and stove.
4.
If the area the pipe runs through looks acceptable, move the stove into position.
Be sure the stove had proper clearance from combustible areas.
5.
If a new chimney is being installed, follow the instructions of the chimney pipe
manufacturer or have it installed by a certified chimney installer.
6.
Install the chimney connector-if it is passing through combustible walls, it must be
insulated such as triple-wall pipe. Also, if it is impossible to maintain 24” between
your smoke pipe and a combustible wall, use an insulated chimney pipe. Also con-
sult local building codes and regulations.
7.
After the pipe connector is in place, run the stovepipe with the crimped edge
down from the chimney connector to the stove. The crimped edges must be down
so creosote accumulation on the walls of the stovepipe can run back into the stove
and not out the joints of the pipe.
8.
Check installation to determine that the pipe is connected properly using three
sheet metal screws per joint; that the proper distances have been maintained from
combustible surfaces with the stove and the stovepipe; and the chimney is in good
repair and is installed properly.
