Flue Pipes with a spigot and socket joint should be fi tted
with the socket facing upwards, to contain condensates
and moisture within the fl ue. Joints should be made gas
tight using proprietary jointing accessories, or, where ap-
propriate, by packing joint with noncombustible rope and
fi re cement.
Double-wall connectors must be tested and listed for use
with solid-fuel burning appliances. Single-wall connectors
should be made of 24 gauge or heavier steel. Do not use
galvanized connector; it cannot withstand the high tempera-
tures that can be reached by smoke and exhaust gases,
and may release toxic fumes under high heat. The connec-
tor may be 152 mm (6”) or 203 mm (8”) in diameter.
If possible, do not pass the chimney connector through
a combustible wall or ceiling. If passage through a com-
bustible wall is unavoidable, refer to the section on Wall
Pass-Throughs. Do not pass the connector through an
attic, a closet or similar concealed space. The whole con-
nector should be exposed and accessible for inspection
and cleaning.
In horizontal runs of chimney connector, maintain a dis-
tance of 610 mm (24”) from the ceiling. Keep it as short and
direct as possible, with no more than two 90° turns. Slope
horizontal runs of connector upward 6 mm per metere
(1/4” per foot) going from the stove toward the chimney.
The recommended maximum length of a horizontal run
is 914 mm (36”), and the total length should be no longer
than 2.4 m (8’). In cathedral ceiling installations, extend
the prefabricated chimney downward to within 2.4 m (8’)
of the stove.
Wear gloves and protective eyewear when drilling, cut-
ting or joining sections of chimney connector.
Double-wall Chimney Connectors
Information on assembling and installing double-wall con-
nectors is provided by the manufacturer of the double-wall
pipe. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions exactly as
you assemble the connector and attach it to the stove
and chimney. Using chimneys and connectors from the
same manufacturer makes the assembly and installation
straightforward.
NOTE: For installations using double-wall connectors,
minimum clearances must conform to the listed clearances
in the clearance chart on Page 14.
If the Encore is equipped with the 203 mm (8”) fl ue collar,
an oval-to-round adapter will be needed. Double-wall oval-
to-round adapters are available from some manufacturers.
Your local dealer can help you select the right connector.
Single-wall Chimney Connectors
•
Begin assembly at the fl ue collar of the stove. Insert the
fi rst crimped end into the stove’s fl ue collar, and keep
each crimped end pointing toward the stove. (Fig. 4)
Using the holes in the fl ue collar as guides, drill 3 mm
(1/8”) holes in the bottom of the fi rst section of chimney
connector and secure it to the fl ue collar with three #10
x 1/2” sheet metal screws.
•
Secure each joint between sections of chimney con-
nector, including telescoping
joints, with at least three (3)
sheet metal screws. The
pre-drilled holes in the top
of each section of chimney
connector serve as guides
when you drill 3 mm (1/8)
holes in the bottom of the
next section.
•
Secure the chimney connec-
tor to the chimney. Instruc-
tions for various installations
follow.
•
Be sure the installed stove
and chimney connector are
correct distances from nearby combustible materials.
NOTE: Special slip pipes and thimble sleeves that form
telescoping joints between sections of chimney connector
are available to simplify installations. They often eliminate
the need to cut individual connector sections. Consult your
local dealer about these special pieces.
Securing the Single-wall Connector to a
Prefabricated Chimney
Follow the installation instructions of the chimney manufac-
turer exactly as you install the chimney. The manufacturer
of the chimney will supply the accessories to support the
chimney, either from the roof of the house, at the ceiling of
the room where the stove is installed, or from an exterior
wall.
Special adapters are available from your local dealer to
make the connection between the prefabricated chimney
and the chimney connector. The top of such adapters
attaches directly to the chimney or to the chimney’s ceil-
ing support package, while the bottom of the adapter is
screwed to the chimney connector.
These adapters are designed so the top end will fi t outside
the inner wall of the chimney, and the bottom end will fi t
inside the fi rst section of chimney connector. When as-
sembled in this way, any soot or creosote falling from the
inner walls of the chimney will stay inside the chimney
connector.

of the connector points
