DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
9. DO NOT CONNECT A WOOD BURNING STOVE TO AN ALUMINUM TYPE B GAS VENT. This is not safe. Use code-
approved masonry chimney with flue liner or an Underwriters Laboratories Listed UL 103 HT (US)/ULC-S629
(CDN) Residential Type and Building Heating Appliance Chimney system. Use a 6˝/152mm diameter chimney,
that is high enough to give a good draft. (See specifics in Chimney Connections instructions).

department or a qualified inspector. Your insurance company should be able to recommend a qualified
inspector. Chimney connector pipe must be in good condition. Replace if necessary before using stove.

your local fire authority for information on proper procedures in the event of a chimney fire. After the fire is
out, the chimney must be cleaned and inspected for any stress or cracks before starting another fire. Check
the condition of any combustibles surrounding the chimney.

immediately. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground,
well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in
soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have
completely cooled. Other waste shall not be placed in this container.
15. To prevent injury, do not allow anyone to use this stove who is unfamiliar with the correct operation of the
stove.
