Connector pipe should be (at minimum) 24-gauge steel and 18 inches (457.2 mm)
from a combustible wall or ceiling. This unit is tested with single-wall pipe only.
Installation of a New Flue System
Masonry Flue: If you are considering a masonry flue (see Figure 1), you should
contact your local building officials for the proper procedures required in the
construction. We recommend that you consult with and have your flue built by a
licensed, bonded contractor.
Most masonry flues are placed against the outside wall and extend up the side of
the house. A flue thimble is then inserted through the wall making the connection
with the vertical flue and the stove flue pipe. Extreme caution should be exercised
when drilling through the wall. You must maintain proper clearances between the
connecting liner and any combustible wall. We do recommend that you have a flue
clean out door at least 2’ (two feet; 60.96 cm) below the flue thimble for easy access
and cleaning. This door should be made as air tight as possible. It is the customer’s
responsibility to be sure the chimney (or flue system) is in a safe operating condition.
The manufacturer will not be held responsible for an accident attributed to a
unit connected to a faulty chimney or flue system.
Premanufactured Flue System: In the past few years, premanufactured flue
systems have become very popular. This type system is fairly easy to install and
when installed correctly, it is a very safe. There are many premanufactured flue
systems on the market from which to choose. In making your choice, be sure the
system has a recognized label of approval such as U.L., B.O.C.A. or I.C.B.O. Any of
these labels will ensure the flue system is constructed of the proper materials and
meets the required safety standards. Your local dealer will normally handle an
approved, high-quality flue system.
NOTE: Be sure to use “HT” Pipe.
There are two very popular methods of installing a premanufactured flue system.
The first, which is the least expensive, is up through the ceiling and out the roof (see
Figure 2). This is the most direct route and creates more draft because less pipe is
normally used. Single wall pipe (24 gauge) is used up to the ceiling, with triple walled
pipe through the attic and out the roof.
The second method of installation is to go through the wall and up the outside of
your home or structure (see Figure 2). This method is more expensive because it
requires more pipe, and once outside the home insulated or triple wall pipe is
required. Extreme care should be used in any installation, and the manufacturers’
instructions should always be followed. If you choose this type installation, a
qualified contractor or bonded chimney sweep should install this system. It is the
customers’ responsibility to be sure the flue system is in a safe operating condition.
* IMPROPER INSTALLATION: The manufacturer will not be held responsible for damage
caused by the malfunction of a stove due to improper venting or installation. Call
800-245-6489 and/or consult a professional installer if you have any questions.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to refer to the data label and other markings on the
appliance for additional information, including clearances to combustibles.
