CHImNEY CONNECTIONS
The stove must be connected to either a ma-
sonry or manuactured metal chimney built and
tested to the specications listed on the previous
pages.
Chimneys perorm two unctions:
1). As a means o exhausting smoke and fue
gases which are the result o uel combustion.
2). The chimney provides “drat” which allows
oxygen to be continuously introduced into the
appliance, so that proper combustion is possible.
This stove relies on natural drat to operate.
NOTICE: Always provide a sorce o resh air
into the room where the stove is located. Failre
to do so may reslt in air starvation o other el
brning appliances and the possible development
o hazardos conditions, fre or death.
Your stove itsel does not create drat. Drat is
provided by the chimney. To achieve proper dratyour chimney must meet the three minimum height
requirements detailed in gures 4–7. A minimum
o 0.05 w.c. (measured in water column) is required
or proper drating to prevent back pung, smoke
spillage, and to maximize perormance. (Gauges to
measure drat are readily available at stove stores
and are economical to rent or purchase.)
Factors such as wind, barometric pressure,
trees, terrain and chimney temperature can have
an adverse eect on the drat. The manuacturer
cannot be held responsible or external actors
leading to less than optimal drating.
Should you have a problem with inadequate
drat, you should contact a licensed heating and
cooling contractor or assistance in solving the
problem.
ImPORTANT Installation Points1. Size chimney fue to stove collar. This stove
requires a 6” diameter fue.
2. Never connect this unit to a chimney serv-
ing another appliance.3. The chimney must meet all minimum
height requirements.
4. Never use a chimney to ventilate a cellar
or basement.
5. Contact your local building authority
or approved methods o installation and any
necessary permits and/or inspections.
mASONRY CHImNEYBeore using an existing masonry chimney,
clean the chimney, inspect the fue liner and make
any repairs needed to be sure it is sae to use. Make
repairs beore attaching the stove. The connec-
tor stove pipe and ttings you will need to con-
nect directly to a masonry chimney are shown in
gure 4.
Fig. 5 - Chimney Constrction Throgh Attic Space
I the connector stove pipe must go through
a combustible wall beore entering the masonry
chimney, consult a qualied mason or chimney
dealer. The installation must conorm to local
building and re codes and latest edition o NFPA
211.
I there is a cleanout opening in the base o the
chimney, close it tightly.

Use only 6” diameter listed chimney UL 103
HT. Chimney made to this listing is High Tempera-
ture rated to 2100 degrees Fahrenheit. Use chimney
rom only one manuacturer. Never mix brands.
Careully ollow the chimney manuacturer’s stated
requirements and clearances. Use the chimneymanuacturer’s attic guards, roo supports, fashing
and re stops when passing through a ceiling. Use a
listed thimble when passing through a combustible
wall. Do not use makeshit compromises during
installation. Never se a single-wall connection
pipe as a chimney!
When using a pre-existing chimney, have it’s
condition and installation inspected beore using.
Make sure that the chimney meets all o the UL
rating requirements listed above. Be aware that
not all manuactured chimney is o the UL 103
HT type.
NOTE: It is recommended that you contact a li-
censed heating and cooling contractor (consult your
local yellow pages) or chimney installation.
Manuactured chimney with the proper required
UL listing is available rom most home centers,
hardware stores, and HVAC supply stores.
I you have access to the internet, you maywish to view chimney manuacturers’ inorma-
tion on-line. See, www.duravent.com, www.
selkirkinc.com, or www.mtlab.com.
VENTING TO EXISTING FIREPLACEIn some instances, people desire to convert an
existing replace or stove use. Usually, sae con-
nection to an existing masonry chimney requires
more work than using a preabricated chimney.
The existing replace must be closed and sealed at
the damper with high-temperature caulk, ceramic
wool, or urnace cement. Prior to installation, clean
and inspect the existing fue and smoke shel. In-
stallation should be designed so the system can be
dismantled or periodic cleaning and inspection.
Beore conversion, make sure the existing chimney
is structurally sound, the chimney incorporates a
fue liner and make sure it is in good condition.
(A fue liner consists o clay tile that protects the
brickwork o a chimney. I a chimney does not have
a liner, or it is damaged, have it relined by a proes-sional. DO NOT uSE a chimney that is nlined
or damaged!) I you have any question regarding
the condition o the chimney, consult a qualied
licensed contractor, qualied engineer, competent
mason, certied Chimney Sweep, or a knowledg-
able inspector. Consult your insurance company i
you cannot nd a qualied expert.

CAUTION: Not all freplaces are suitableor conversion to a ood stove. Chec ith a ualifed expert.
Many preabricated ireplaces are o the
“zero-clearance replace” category. These consist
o multilayered metal construction. They are de-
signed with enough insulation and/or air cooling
on the base, back and sides so they can be saely
installed in direct contact with combustible foors
and walls. Although many preabricated replaces
carry endorsements rom nationally recognized
organizations or use as replaces, they have not
been tested or connection to wood stove heaters.
Connecting a stove to such a device will void the
manuacturer’s warranty.
Steel-lined ireplaces are constructed with
1/4” rebox liner, an air chamber in connectionwith 8” o masonry. These can be saely used with
wood burning stoves. They contain all the essential
components o a replace, rebox, damper, throat,
smoke shel, and smoke chamber. Many look iden-
tical to masonry replaces and should be checked
careully beore connecting a stove to them.
Venting a stove directly into a replace does
not meet code and should not be attempted. (This
constitutes connection to another appliance - the
replace.) Combustion products will be deposited
and build up in the rebox or replace. The stovewarranty will be void with such an installation. Do
not create a hazard in your home by connecting in
this manner.
Fig. 8 - Fireplace Conversion
FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
Do Not Attept to route chiney con-nector pipe through the throat o a fre-place. Directly connecting the stovepipe into the
existing masonry chimney (gure 12 “Type A”
replace conversion) o the replace is the only ap-
proved method o installation. This is a complicated
and involved process and to insure saety should
only by done by a qualied installer.1. An entry hole must be cut through the masonry
and tile liner with minimal damage to the liner.At least 8” o liner must remain below the entryposition. When locating the stove and stove-pipe, all minimum clearances must be observedrom combustible suraces including mantels,combustible trimwork, ceilings and walls.Positioning the center o the stove pipe entryinto the chimney 24” below the ceiling should
insure proper clearance or a 6” stovepipe.2. Install a metal or re clay (5/8” minimum thick-
ness) thimble. Make sure the thimble is fushwith the inner surace o the chimney liner anddoes not protrude into the fue (see gure 4 onpage 6).
3. Secure the thimble with reractory mortar. Thethimble should be surrounded by 8” o solidunit masonry brickwork or 24” o stone.
4. Install the stovepipe into the thimble as ar aspossible without extending past the fue lining
(see gures 4 on page 6).5. A small airspace (about 1/2”) should remain
between the stovepipe and thimble to allow orexpansion o the pipe. Seal this airspace withhigh-temperature caulking or ceramic wool.
6. Secure and seal the damper in the closed posi-tion using high-temp caulking, ceramic wool,or urnace cement. Also check to see i thechimney has a cleanout. I it does, make sure itis closed and sealed as well. A leaky cleanoutwill greatly reduce drat eciency.
I you have any questions regarding venting
your stove, contact the manuacturer or contact
the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
and request a copy o the latest editions o NFPA
Standard 211 and NFPA Standard 908. Their ad-
dress is:

mAINTENANCE & SERvICE HINTS
ASH DISPOSAL – Do not allow ashes to
accumulate higher than the slide drat. Dispose o
properly. (See Saety Instructions #13, page 2.)
CHImNEY DRAFT – Drat is a unction o
the chimney, not the stove — do not expect the
stove to draw. Smoke spillage into the house or
excessive buildup o condensation or creosote in
the chimney are warnings that the chimney is NOT
unctioning properly. Correct the problem beoreusing the stove. Following are some possible causes
or improper drat.
1. The connector stovepipe may be pushed
into the chimney too ar, stopping the drat.
2. I the chimney temperature is too cool,
water will condense in the chimney and run back
into the stove. Creosote ormation will be rapid
and may block the chimney. Operate the stove at a
re level high enough to keep the chimney warm
to prevent condensation rom orming.
3. I the re burns well but sometimes createsexcess smoke or burns slowly, it may be caused by
the chimney top being lower than another part o
the house or a nearby tree. The wind blowing over
a house or tree, alls on top o the chimney like
water over a dam, beating down the smoke. The
top o the chimney should be at least three (3) eet
above the roo and be at least two (2) eet higher
than any point o the roo within ten (10) eet.
CREOSOTE – Foration and Reoval. Slow-burning wood produces tar and other organic
vapors which combine with expelled moisture to
orm creosote. Creosote vapors condense in the
relatively cool chimney fue o a slow-burning re.
As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the fue
lining. I ignited, this creosote creates an extremelyhot re which may ignite surrounding materials
resulting in a building re.
I creosote has accumulated, it should be
removed. Failure to remove creosote may result
in ignition and may cause a house/building re.
Creosote may be removed using a chimney brush
or other commonly available materials rom your
local hardware retailer.
CHImNEY INSPECTIONS – The chimney
connector and chimney should be inspected at thebeginning o and at least twice a month during
the heating season to determine i a creosote buildup
has occurred.
Chimney res burn very hot. I the chimney
connector should glow red, reduce the re by clos-
ing the damper and spin drat control and immedi-
ately call the re department. contined on next page
