locAtiNG stoVE
Connector pipe is used to make the connection
from the final positioning of your stove to an approved
chimney. Connector pipe is NOT included as part of the
stove. Connector pipe must be 6” diameter minimum of
24 MSG (minimum standard gauge) black or 26 MSG
blue steel stove pipe. Connector pipe is not rated to
provide close contact to combustible materials and
must have proper clearance from combustible materials
as shown in the clearance diagrams on the previous
pages. Connector pipe should never be used in place
of a chimney. If proper clearances are not observed a
house fire could result.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. The tapered end of the connector stovepipe fits into
the stove flue collar. Secure with three sheet metal
screws. Notice: For side or rear venting, you must
have a minimum 24” vertical rise from top of stove
to horizontal pipe sections (see fig. 7).
2. Horizontal pipe runs must slope upwards
towards the chimney at least 1/4” per foot of hori-
zontal run.
3. You must have at least 18 inches of clearance
between any horizontal piping and the ceiling.
4. The pipe cannot extend into the chimney flue (fig.
9).
5. Secure collar/pipe/elbow sections with three (3)
sheet metal screws at each joint to make the piping
rigid.
6. It is recommended that no more than two (2) 90
degree bends be used in the stovepipe installa-
tion. The use of more than two 90 degree bends
may decrease the amount of draw and possibly
cause smoke spillage. Where possible, use only
corrugated (nonadjustable) elbows. These provide
a better seal.
7. The connector pipe must not pass through an at-
tic or roof space, closet, or any concealed space,
or floor, ceiling, wall or combustible construction.
(See
Chimney Connector Systems & Clearances
,
page 22). A UL 103 HT Listed chimney
must
be
used from the first penetration of ceiling or wall to
the chimney cap.

FIREBRICk ASSEMBLY
Firebrick protects the stove body, extends the
life of your stove and radiates heat more evenly.
Check to see that all firebricks are in their correct
positions and have not become misaligned dur-
ing shipping or assembly. If removed for ease of
locating stove, firebrick must be replaced before
firing. There are four different full-sized bricks
(A, K, F, D) and three (E, G, H) with notches.
See diagram, fig. 8, for proper positioning.
