Installation" on page 16.
2. Clearances to combustible surfaces and materials using single-wall connector are shown in Figure 8.
Clearances may be reduced with various heat insulating materials. Consult local fire codes and authorities for approval.
3. Alternately, for close clearances, use a listed double-wall connector. See "Figure 7" on page 15.
Chimney and Connector
Connect to a listed chimney or a chimney suitable for use with solid fuel that is lined and in good condition and meets local building
codes. The chimney flue size should be the same as the stove outlet for optimal performance. Reducing or increasing the flue size
may adversely affect stove performance. Chimney flue exit is to be 3 feet (1 m.) above roof and two feet (0.6 m.) above highest
projection within 10 feet (3 m.). The installation must meet all local codes. Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another
appliance. Minimum system height is 15 feet (4.6 m.) (measured from base of appliance).
Double-Wall Connector
•
Use a listed double-wall connector.
•
Install all components to the chimney connector manufacturer's installation requirements.
Single-Wall Connector
Smoke pipe must be:
•
as short and straight as possible, use six inch diameter, 24 gauge black pipe that is clean and in new condition.
•
secured at every joint and collar with 3 sheet metal screws.
•
installed with the crimped or male ends pointing down. This will carry any liquid creosote or condensation back into the stove.
•
The chimney connector shall not pass through an attic, roof space, closet or similar concealed space, floor, or ceiling. Where
passage through a wall, or partition of combustible material is desired, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365,
Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment or in the U.S., NFPA 211: Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces,
