Chimney connector
The chimney connector is a single or walled pipe
used to connect the stove to the chimney. For use
with the HWAM wood-burning stoves the chimney
connector MUST be 6” in diameter, with a minimum
thickness of 24 gauge black steel or 26 gauge blued
steel
Aluminum and galvanized steel pipe is not
acceptable for use with the HWAM wood-burning
stove. These materials cannot withstand the
extreme temperatures of a wood fi re and can give
off toxic fumes when heated.
DO NOT USE THE CONNECTOR PIPE AS A
CHIMNEY
Each chimney connector or stove pipe section must be connected to the
stove fl ue collar and to each other with the male (crimped) end toward the
stove. Each adjacent piece of connector must be fastened with 3 screws.
This prevents any condensed or liquid creosote from running down the outside
of the pipe or the stove top. All joints, including the fl ue collar connection must
be secured with three sheet metal screws to ensure that the sections do not
separate. For the best performance the chimney connector should be as short
and direct as possible, with no more than one 90 degree elbow. The maximum
horizontal run is 36” and a recommended total length of connector pipe should
not exceed 10 feet. Always slope horizontal runs upward ¼” per foot toward the
chimney.
