8.7.1 Installation of single wall chimney connector
The chimney connector assembly has been called ‘the weak link’ in the safety of wood
heating systems because failure to install the connector properly (which has been common
in the past) can result in house fires.
The best flue pipe assembly is one that rises straight up from the furnace to the base of
the chimney with no elbows. Straight assemblies are less likely to cause problems like
smoke roll-out when the door is opened for loading. They are also more stable and easier
to maintain than assemblies with elbows. Horizontal runs of flue pipe should be avoided
where possible because they reduce chimney draft.
Use 45° elbows where possible, instead of 90° elbows.
