CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
!
WARNING: BE SURE THAT THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE KIMBERLY™ WOOD STOVE HEATER AND
THE SURFACE OF ANY COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL IS NOT LESS THAN DETAILED IN THIS MANUAL.
!
FLOOR PROTECTION
!
The floor underneath, to the sides, and to the rear of the Kimberly™ wood stove heater must be protected by a
minimum of 3/8-inch (1 cm) thick UL-1618 Type-1 floor pad, which is made from non-combustible material. The
floor pad must extend 18 inches (45.72 cm) in front of the loading door, 8 inches (20.32 cm) to the sides, and 12
inches (30.48 cm) to the rear, or to the wall, whichever is greater. Allow for the multi-fuel pellet venting pipe to
have a minimum 6-inch (15.24 cm) clearance from combustible materials. See Diagram #6.
!
ALCOVE CLEARANCES
!
The Kimberly™ wood stove heater is certified for use in alcoves with a minimum of 22 inches (55.88 cm) wide
up to a maximum of 48 inches (121.92 cm) deep, with a minimum 72-inch (182.88 cm) ceiling.

GENERAL INFORMATION ON CHIMNEY & CONNECTORS
!
1. The Kimberly™ wood stove heater is approved for four types of residential chimney systems: 1. Connecting
To A New Manufactured Chimney; 2. Connecting To A Pre-Existing Masonry Fireplace Chimney; 3. Relining A
Pre-Existing Masonry Chimney; and 4. Connecting To A Pre-Existing Manufactured Chimney. Instructions for
each type of chimney system are contained in this manual. We are happy to assist with questions. Call
1-855-872-7868 or email [email protected], or contact your authorized Kimberly™ dealer.
See also Diagram #8, Diagram #9, and Diagram #10.

2.
Note
that all approved chimney systems are vertical. None of the approved chimney systems exit
horizontally through a wall.
!
3. As with any wood stove, the relationship between the Kimberly™ wood stove heater and its chimney is much
like the relationship between the heart and lungs in the human body—neither can function efficiently without
the full cooperation of the other. It is therefore important that the chimney (the “lungs”) is the correct diameter
and height to ensure the Kimberly™ wood stove heater (the “heart”) functions to the efficiency for which it
was engineered.
!
4. Some situations may require additional venting components. Your Kimberly™ stove dealer will be able to
assist you in analyzing your specific needs. Alternatively, you may call Unforgettable Fire™ at
1-855-872-7868 or email [email protected] for further information. For example, if your
Kimberly™ wood stove heater is difficult to start, or smoke escapes into the room when the door is open,
your installation may require a longer chimney to improve the draft uptake; remember that slow or
inadequate draft equals poor combustion and possible smoking problems. Alternatively, if you can not
achieve sufficient burn time on a single fuel load, or your stove top often glows red, you may need an inline
chimney damper to reduce draft, especially in taller chimney applications.

CANADA:
No chimney connector shall pass through an attic or roof space, closet, or similar concealed
space, or a floor, or ceiling. Where passage through a wall, or partition of combustible construction is
desired, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances
and Equipment.
