DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY
FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE
•
Single wall connector is 24 MSG or 25
MSG blued steel stovepipe.
•
Double wall connector (close clearance pipe)
which must be used with a listed factory-built
“Type HT" chimney and may also be used
with a masonry chimney to reduce
clearances, is available from several
manufacturers, your dealer can help you
choose. Some manufacturers of close
clearance connector pipe are Simpson Dura
Vent, Metalbestos, Security, GSW and
Ameritec.
•
When used in a mobile home, a spark arrester
venting cap is required. (See page 17)
•
Chimney connector shall not pass through
floor or ceiling, nor any attic or roof space,
closet or similar concealed space. Where
passage through a wall or partition of
combustible construction is desired, the
installation shall conform to NFPA 211 or
CAN/CSA - B365.
It is very important to follow minimum
clearances for chimney connectors to
combustibles such as walls and ceilings
when installing the stove near non-
combustible surfaces. Typical chimney
connector clearances are outlined below.
The single wall clearances are generic; the
Double wall clearances are for Simpson
Dura Vent DVL,
CHECK THE
SPECIFICATIONS FROM THE
MANUFACTURER OF YOUR
CONNECTOR. USE OF MAKESHIFT
VENTING COMPONENTS MAY
COMPROMISE THE SAFTY OF THE

The complete venting system will consist of
several components: chimney connector, wall
thimble, wall pass-through, chimney, and liner.
It is
absolutely necessary
that you install all of
these components within the clearances to
combustibles discussed earlier to install your
stove safely.
To protect against the possibility of a house fire,
you
must properly install and constantly
maintain the venting system
. Upon inspection,
immediately replace rusted, cracked, or broken
components.
•
The
chimney connector
is the stovepipe
from the woodstove to the chimney. The
chimney connector stovepipe must be 6"
(152 mm) diameter, 24 MSG or 25 MSG
blued steel connector pipe.
Do not use
aluminum or galvanized steel pipe
- they
cannot withstand the extreme temperatures
of a wood fire.
•
A
thimble
is a manufactured (or site-
constructed) device installed in combustible
walls through which the chimney connector
passes to the chimney. It keeps the walls
from igniting. You must use a wall thimble
when installing a chimney connector
through a combustible wall to the chimney.
•
A
wall pass-through
(or chimney support
package) also keeps the walls from igniting.
You must use one when connecting through
a wall or ceiling to a prefabricated chimney.
•
Only install this stove to a
lined masonry
chimney
or an approved high temperature
prefabricated residential
type building
heating appliance chimney.
Do not
connect
this stove to a chimney serving another
appliance; you will compromise the safe
