code-approved masonry chimney with a fl ue liner.
Chimney Connector Installation
It is required to install a 8 inch all-fuel class "A" chim-
ney system prior to the chimney connector installa-
tion. The connector pipe included with the Imperial is
1 - 8" x 30" starter pipe, and 1 - 8" x 30" slip connec-
tor. The slip connector is identifi ed by 3 holes at the
top of the pipe. The slip connector has one fl air at
the top with the 3 holes. The bottom is smooth. The
starter pipe section has fl airings at both ends. The
male end is always at the bottom.
Simpson Dura-Vent Chimney System
It is required to use a Dura-Vent Universal Connector
part number
8DVL-ADC or 8878 Adapter
to install the
chimney connector.
1. The universal connector is installed into the support
box. The 8" x 30" slip pipe is then connected to the
universal connector.
2. The 8" x 30" starter pipe section is then slid over the
slip connector pipe. Slide the 30 inch pipe over the
slip pipe only far enough as necessary to facilitate
installation of the 8" x 30" starter pipe in to the unit.
3. There must be a minimum of 2 inches of overlap be-
tween the 8" x 30" and 8" x 30" slip connector pipe.

slip connector pipe. Slide the 30 inch pipe into the
slip pipe only far enough as necessary to facilitate
installation of the 8" x 30" starter pipe into the unit.
4. Slide the 8" x 30" pipe down onto the Imperial.
5. There must be a minimum of 2 inches of overlap be-
tween the 8" x 30" and 8" x 30" slip connector pipe.
