DO NOT BURN WET COAL

Do not burn any fuel other than coal. Never use highly 

volatile  substances  in  your  stove,  such  as  gasoline, 

which could cause an explosion.

When solid fuels are burned completely, they produce 

water  and  carbon  dioxide.  However,  in  long  slow 

burns, a substantial amount of carbon monoxide may 

be produced.  If allowed to build up, carbon monoxide 

(which is odorless) can prove fatally poisonous. Proper 

ventilation and draft will prevent this from happening. 

If you smell smoke, thoroughly ventilate your dwelling. 

Contact your dealer to arrange for a draft test.

Other  causes  of  poor  ventilation  or  draft  are  icing, 

exhaust  fans,  a  blocked  outside  air  inlet,  and  room 

air starvation.  If your stove is sluggish and you get 

occasional odor, check these possibilities and increase 

the air flow in your home.

Installing to a Prefabricated Chimney

When  venting  your  stove  using  a  prefabricated 

chimney,  be  sure  to  contact  local  building  code 

authorities, and to follow the manufacturer’s instructions 

exactly

. Use only the manufacturer’s parts; do not use 

makeshift  installation  techniques.   All  prefabricated 

chimneys must be tested to either the U.S. or Canadian 

high-temperature standards, UL 103 or ULC S629.

Do not connect to any air distribution 

duct or system

Existing masonry Chimneys

If you plan on using a pre-existing masonry chimney, 

have it thoroughly inspected and cleaned. Any faults 

which make the chimney unsafe and unusable must 

be repaired prior to use. These can include improper 

height,  structural  defects,  blockages,  inadequate 

clearance  to  combustibles,  unsealed  openings  into 

other rooms of the house, signs of creosote or smoke 

leakage, a loose or absent clean-out door, or absence 

of a liner.

venting to a masonry Chimney

When  connecting  to  a  masonry  chimney,  several 

provisions are standard.  First, whether the chimney 

connector is vented to the chimney through a thimble 

or a breech pipe, neither must pass beyond the inner 

surface of the chimney liner, and both must be firmly 

cemented in place with refractory cement. (A thimble is 

a masonry pipe which is inserted through the chimney 

wall, and is frequently the preferred method; a breech 

pipe is a piece of steel pipe used the same way.) In 

Canada, a breech pipe has ridges or protrusions to lock 

it firmly into the refractory cement. In either case, the 

chimney connector vents to the chimney through the 

thimble or breech pipe.

Using  a  thimble,  the  connector  slides  completely 

inside the masonry to the inner edge of the flue liner, 

and may be easily removed for chimney and connector 

inspection. A breech pipe must extend at least 2" (50 

mm) into the room, so the connector can be attached 

with sheetmetal screws.

venting to a masonry Fireplace Chimney

In some situations, a code compliant chimney originally 

used for a masonry fireplace may be used to install 

your stove. In addition to the requirements found in the 

previous paragraphs, it is important to be aware that 

all clearances must be met, including those from the 

chimney connector to combustibles.  Do not forget to 

include floor protection in your plans.  (See Clearances 

and  Floor  Protection  in  this  section.)    Since  many 

fireplaces  have  exposed  wooden  mantels  and  trim, 

pay special attention to the clearances necessary to 

these materials.

If your fireplace chimney is behind a combustible wall, 

you must use an approved wall pass-through system 

to gain access to the masonry chimney. The chimney 

connector must enter the chimney at a place where it is 

lined, and the fireplace must be made inoperable. For 

example, you might remove the damper, replacing it with 

a secure, airtight, noncombustible seal (removable for 

inspection); this also satisfies the requirement that no 

room air must be allowed to enter the chimney.
