Explorer II Medium Wood Stove

Chimney Height / Rise and Run

This product was designed for and tested on a 6 inch (152mm) 
chimney, 14 to 16 feet (420-480cm) high, (includes stove 
height) measured from the base of the appliance.  The further 
your stack height or diameter varies from this confi guration,  
the greater the likelihood it may affect performance. 

Chimney height may need to be increased by 2  - 3% per 
each 1000 feet above sea level.  It is not recommended to 
use offsets or elbows at altitudes above 4000 feet above sea 
level or when there are other factors that affect fl ue draft.

C. Installing Chimney Components

Chimney Connector

Single wall connector or stove pipe.  

This must be at least 24 gauge mild steel or 26 gauge blue

should be secured with 3 sheet metal screws.  Make sure 
to follow the minimum clearances to combustibles.   Where 
passage through the wall, or partition of combustible con-
struction is desired in Canada, the installation shall conform 
to CAN/CSA-B365.

A listed connector (vented) must be used when installing this
