Free Standing Installation:
Step 1: Determining the stove location:
When choosing a stove location there are a few things that should be considered.
1.
Try to choose a location that is centrally located in the house.
2.
Try to choose a location that will be easy to access from your wood storage area.
3.
Survey the roof area above and around the location of the chimney exit. Be sure there are no
dormers, roof valleys or any other roof irregularities that could cause difficulty when trying to set
and seal the roof flashing.
4.
If possible, survey the attic area above and around the location of the chimney. Be sure there are
no major obstructions such as plumbing, heating ducts, electrical wires, phone cables, etc. Also
check the crawl space below and around the stove location for the same obstructions.
STEP 2: Installing the chimney.
Use only 8” Class A solid fuel chimney that has been U.L. safety tested for wood stoves (type 103 HT)
IMPORTANT: These instructions are a very basic guideline for the steps to install your chimney.
For complete instructions, refer to the installation manual that came with your chimney. Chimney
installation instructions are usually located in the box with the chimney cap or chimney support
components. DO NOT mix different brands of chimney components. If you have any questions about
the installation of your chimney, please contact the dealer where you purchased your stove.
CAUTION: Inspect all chimney components for damage. Do not use any damaged chimney
components.

1.
Familiarize yourself with the clearances of the stove for the configuration in which you have
chosen to install, i.e. corner installation or straight wall installation (see section 6). Notice the
clearances listed for the chimney, this will help you determine the location of the hole in the
ceiling. Note: On metal roofs in snow regions, consideration must be given to snow loads above
