UL/ULC LISTED CHIMNEY
Carefully follow the chimney manufacturer's instructions.
Use only listed type HT per UL 103, ULC, 6-in diameter
black or blued chimney connector, minimum 24 gauge
steel. If your chimney starts at the ceiling, you will
need enough 6" pipe to reach the ceiling. The top of the
chimney must be at least 3 feet above the roof and be at
least 2 feet higher than any point of the roof within 10
feet. Use double or triple wall pipe for the exterior portion
of the chimney.

RULES FOR CONNECTOR PIPE
INSTALLATION
1. The crimped end of the pipe must be installed toward
the heater. The pipe should slide into the flue collar.
The pipe should be firmly attached to the flue collar
with 3 screws and sealed with furnace cement.
2. Slope any horizontal pipe upward toward the
chimney at least 1/4" for each foot of horizontal run.
The horizontal section must be a minimum of 24"
from the stove.
3. You must have at least 18" inches clearance between
any horizontal piping and the ceiling.
4. The pipe cannot extend into the chimney flue.
5. Seal each connector pipe joint with furnace cement.
Also, seal the pipe at the chimney. Seal the inside
with high-temperature silicone and the outside with
high-temperature tape.
6. Use 3 sheet metal screws at each joint to make the
piping rigid.
7. It is recommended that no more than two (2)
90-degree bends be used in the stove pipe installation
as more than two (2) may decrease the amount of
draw and possibly cause smoke spillage.
NOTE: The chimney connector shall not pass through an
attic, roof space, floor, ceiling, or similar concealed space.
Where passage through a wall or partition of combustible
construction is desired, the installation must conform
with CAN/CSA - B365.
IMPORTANCE OF PROPER DRAFT
Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance
up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your
chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local
geography, nearby obstructions and other factors. Too
much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the
appliance. Inadequate draft may cause backpuffing into
the room and ‘plugging’ of the chimney or the catalyst (if
equipped). Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to
