RELINING A PRE-EXISTING MASONRY CHIMNEY
!
1. See Diagram #9.
!
2. The Kimberly™ wood stove heater is approved to use any UL-Listed legally rated 3-inch (7.62 cm) double
wall (18-gauge stainless steel lined) multi-fuel pellet pipe as a connector from the flue outlet on the stove to
the opening of the masonry chimney. We recommend BioVent® Multi-Fuel Pellet Venting, available from
Unforgettable Fire™ or your authorized Kimberly™ dealer. In addition, the penetration through the wall of the
masonry chimney must include a UL-Listed wall thimble, using 6-inch (15.24 cm) Type 103HT (U.S.) or
ULC629 (Canada) Class-A as a conduit in accordance with UL-Listed wood stove installations, and must
meet all county and state requirements for such installations. The masonry chimney itself must be lined with
any UL-Listed legally rated 3-inch (7.62 cm) single wall flexible (18-gauge stainless steel) multi-fuel pellet
pipe from the top of the masonry chimney down to the opening in the masonry chimney which
accommodates the approved wall thimble. We recommend BioVent® Multi-Fuel Flexible Pellet Venting. All
joints must be secured with at least 3 self-tapping screws per joint.
!
3. To remove any pre-existing creosote, the masonry chimney should be professionally cleaned.
!
4. Wear gloves to protect your hands and to prevent cuts from sharp metal edges. Unroll the 3-inch pellet pipe
on the ground outside the house, and straighten it as much as possible to make it easier to insert the pellet
pipe through the masonry chimney.
!
5. Climb onto the roof and remove the cap from the top of the masonry chimney and check for any obstacles in
masonry flue.
!
6. Begin sliding the 3-inch pellet pipe into the masonry chimney. Due to the small 3-inch diameter of the pellet
pipe, little resistance should be felt as it passes through the masonry chimney. It may be helpful to have an
installation partner down below to assist with sliding the pellet pipe through the chimney to the opening in the
sidewall of the masonry chimney.
!
7. At the opening in the sidewall of the masonry chimney, the 3-inch pellet pipe must pass through a Type
103HT (U.S.), ULC629 (Canada) Class-A UL-Listed factory built wall thimble and chimney pipe. Carefully
follow all manufacturer’s installation instructions.
!
8. From the rooftop, pull the excess 3-inch pellet pipe from the masonry fireplace chimney, leaving sufficient
length to fit into the chimney cap. Use a hacksaw or other cutting device to cut the flexible pipe. Secure to
the chimney cap with a minimum of three self-tapping screws.
!
9. When connected, use 3M™ Fireblock sealant (or equivalent) and concrete screws to secure the chimney
cap in place.
!
