Connecting to the Chimney
Masonry Chimney Thimbles
When installing a Sedore woodstove into a masonry chimney through a “thimble”(the opening
through the chimney wall to the flue), the thimble must be lined with ceramic tile or metal and be
securely cemented in place.
The chimney connector/stove pipe must slide completely inside the thimble to the inner surface or
the flue liner. It may be necessary to make use of a thimble sleeve (a pipe with a slightly smaller
diameter than standard stove pipe). This special pipe can be easily installed into a thimble.
Make sure the connector pipe or thimble sleeve does not protrude into the flue liner, thereby re-
stricting the area the smoke has to flow through. This bottle-neck will have a negative affect on
the chimney system.
The chimney connector should be sealed at the thimble with refractory cement and the stove pipe
leading to the stove should have a minimum of three screws.
Do not connect this stove to a chimney flue servicing another appliance of any kind.
Prefabricated Chimneys
When installing the Sedore woodstove to a prefabricated metal chimney always follow the pipe
manufacture’s instructions and be sure to use the components that are required. This usually in-
cludes some type of “smoke pipe adapter” that is secured to the bottom section of the metal chim-
ney and allows the chimney pipe to be secured to it with three sheet metal screws.
