Exterior conditions such as roof line, surrounding trees,
prevailing winds and nearby hills can influence stove
performance. Your local dealer is the expert in your geographic
area and can usually make suggestions or discover solutions
that will easily correct your fl ue problem.
D. Flue Draft Considerations
Location of the appliance and chimney will affect perfor-
mance. As shown in
Figure 6.1
on page 6
the chimney
should:
• Be installed through the warm space enclosed by the
building envelope. This helps to produce more draft,
especially during lighting and die down of the fi re.
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes
the affects of wind turbulence and down drafts.
• Consider the appliance location in order to avoid
fl oor and ceiling attic joists and rafters.
E. Venting Systems
The venting system consists of a chimney connector (also
known as stove pipe) and a chimney. These get extremely
hot during use. Temperatures inside the chimney may
exceed 2000
F (1100
C) in the event of a creosote fi re. To
protect against the possibility of a house fi re, the chimney
connector and chimney
must be properly installed and
maintained.
An approved thimble must be used when a
connection is made through a combustible wall to a chimney.
A chimney support package must be used when a connection
is made through the ceiling to a prefabricated chimney.
These accessories are
absolutely necessary
to provide
safe clearances to combustible wall and
ceiling material.
Follow venting manufacturer’s clearances when installing
venting system.
To be sure that your appliance burns properly, the chimney
draft (static pressure) should be approximately -.04 inch water
column (W.C.) during a low burn and -.10 inch W.C. during a
high burn, measured 6 inches (152mm) above the top of the
appliance after one hour of operation at each burn setting.
NOTE
: These are guidelines only, and may vary somewhat
for individual installations.
