CONNECTOR PIPE INSTALLATION
1. The crimped end of the stovepipe fits inside the
stove flue collar. Install additional pipe and elbow
with the crimped end towards the stove. This will
allow any condensation in the flue to run back into
the firebox.
2. Horizontal pipe runs must slope upwards
towards the chimney at least 1/4” per foot of hori-
zontal run.
3. You must have at least 18 inches of clearance
between any horizontal piping and the ceiling.
4. The pipe cannot extend into the chimney flue
(figure 13).
5. Secure pipe sections with three (3) sheet metal
screws no more than a maximum of 3˝/76mm apart
in each stove pipe and/or elbow joint to firmly hold
the pipe sections together.
6. It is recommended that no more than two (2)
90° bends be used in the stovepipe installa-
tion. The use of more than two 90° bends may
decrease the amount of draw and possibly
cause smoke spillage. Where possible, use only
corrugated (non adjustable) elbows. These
provide a better seal.
7. The connector pipe must not pass through an
attic or roof space, closet, or any concealed space,
floor, ceiling, wall or combustible construction. (See
Chimney Connector Systems & Clearances, page
17). A UL 103 HT Listed chimney must be used
from the first penetration of ceiling or wall to the
chimney cap.
WARNING: DO NOT USE SINGLE WALL CON-
NECTOR PIPE AS A CHIMNEY. DO NOT USE
GALVANIZED DUCT PIPE AS A CONNECTOR
PIPE. A HOUSE FIRE COULD RESULT.

FIREBRICK ASSEMBLY
Firebrick extends the life of your stove and radiates
heat more evenly. Check to see that all firebricks are in
their correct positions and have not become misaligned
during shipping or assembly. If removed for ease of
locating stove, firebrick must be replaced before firing.
See diagrams, fig. 14a – 14c, for proper positioning.
CAUTION: NEVER OPERATE STOVE WITH
MISSING OR CRACKED FIRE BRICKS!
