A 6" diameter single wall stove pipe, used to connect the stove to the chimney, must
be installed with the crimped end towards the stove. This will ensure that the moisture
which condenses from the burning wood will flow back into the stove.
Each joint in the stove pipe must be secured with at least three sheet metal screws.
This heater must be connected to a chimney complying with the requirements for Type
HT chimneys in the Standard for Chimneys, Factory-Built, Residential Type and Building
Heating Appliance UL 103.
