Vertical Installation into Existing Factory Built (Class "A") Chimney
This type of installation utilizes an existing class "A" chimney to vent the flue gases. An adapter
must be used to connect the pellet vent to the chimney. All of the pellet vent sections, the
adapter, and the chimney must all be sealed to prevent flue gases from entering the room. Make
sure to follow all of the requirements listed in the section "Stove Requirements" as well as those
listed below in the illustration. The steps below detail the order of installation.
A Inspect the existing class "A" chimney for any damage or deterioration. Use RTV 500 o F.
silicone to seal all of the chimney joints.
B Install the floor protection.
C Install the chimney to pellet vent adapter to the chimney. Install the pellet vent. Screw
together all pellet vent joints and seal. Install the outside air connection (if applicable).
D Place the pellet stove in position and attach the pellet vent and outside air connection (if
applicable). Screw together and seal the pellet vent connection to the stove.
E Read the section "Operating the Heater" prior to plugging in the stove and operating.
