CHIMNEY - INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: The following chimney instructions are for reference and guideline purposes only.
Chimney installation should be performed by a qualified chimney installer.
Be sure to read, understand and adhere to the installation clearances and restrictions stated in
this manual.
Masonry Chimneys:
The use of an existing masonry chimney should only be considered if it has been
thoroughly inspected and approved for use with this furnace . The chimney must conform to State or Na-
tional Building Codes. Consult local building code and fire code authorities for the proper requirements
in your area.
NOTE: WinterGreen does not recommend using a masonry chimney.
Factory Built Chimneys:
New factory built chimneys must conform to type HT (High Temperature) re-
quirements of UL-103 for factory built chimneys and comply with the requirements of Chapter 11 of
NFPA 211 Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances. Consult local
building code and fire code authorities for the proper requirements in your area.
Never connect to an aluminum Type B gas vent. As this is not approved
for the WinterGreen Furnace and is dangerous.
DO NOT USE A CHIMNEY CAP!
Do not connect furnace to a chimney flue serving any other appliance.
DO NOT SIDE VENT A SOLID WOOD BURNING FURNACE
Stove Pipe: The stove pipe and elbows used to connect from the WinterGreen Furnace to either a fac-
tory chimney or a masonry chimney must be black, heavy wall (24 gauge) thickness with a melting point
of not less than 2000˚F and conform to UL Standard S641 for flue pipes.
IMPORTANT: The flue connection between the furnace and chimney cannot have more than a
combined total of 180˚ in elbow connectors. (Example: 2 x 90˚ elbows or 1 x 90˚ and 2 x 45˚ el-
bows) The maximum straight length of flue pipe is 3 m (10 ft.) total and have an upwards slope
toward the chimney of 1/4” per foot to allow condensation to drain towards the furnace. All con-
nections must have at least 1 3/16” overlap and a minimum of 3 fastening screws to prevent
separation. Provisions must be for visual inspection and cleaning either by cleanouts in the flue-
pipe or by removal of the flue pipe. Longitudinal seams of the pipe are to be located on the un-
derside in horizontal runs.
