9. The Venting System
The venting system, made of the chimney and the connecting pipe between the stove and the
chimney, acts as the engine that drives the wood heating system. Even the best stove will not
function safely and efficiently if it is not connected to a suitable chimney.
The heat in the flue gases that pass from the stove and chimney connector into the chimney is
not waste heat. This heat is what the chimney uses to make the draft that draws in combustion
air, keeps smoke inside the stove and safely vents exhaust to outside. The heat in the flue gas
can be seen as the fuel the chimney uses to create draft.
9.1 Suitable Chimneys
This stove will provide optimum efficiency and performance when connected to a 6" (150 mm)
diameter chimney flue system. The connection to a chimney having a diameter of at least
5" (130 mm) (Canada only) or no more than 7" (180 mm) is permitted, if it allows the proper
venting of combustion gases and that such application is verified and authorized by a qualified
installer. Otherwise, the diameter of the flue should be 6" (150 mm).
To be suitable, a factory-built metal chimney must comply with UL 103 HT (U.S.A.) or ULC S629
(Canada).
9.1.1 Factory-Built Metal Chimney
These are sometimes referred to as ‘high
temp’ chimneys because they have the specific
characteristics to withstand temperatures that can
be created by wood burning stoves.
Factory-built chimneys are tested as a system
with all the necessary components for installation.
The instructions provided with the chimney by
its manufacturer are the only reliable source of
installation guidelines.
To be safe and effective, the chimney must be installed
exactly in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions. Only components intended for the
brand and model of chimney should be used. Never
fabricate or substitute parts from other chimney
brands. The chimney must be a type suitable for
solid fuel.
