MASONRY CHIMNEY

The masonry chimney must comply with UL codes. Before using an existing masonry chimney, clean the chimney and inspect the flue liner to be sure it is safe to use. Make repairs before attaching the heater. See Page 3, Item 5. Look at Fig. 5. The connector pipe and fittings you will need to connect directly to a masonry chimney are shown. If the connector pipe must go through a combustible wall before entering the masonry chimney, consult a qualified mason or chimney dealer. The installation must conform to local fire codes, and NFPA 211. Do not connect this heater into the same chimney flue as the fireplace or flue from another heater. The chimney used for a heater must not be used to ventilate the cellar or basement. If there is a cleanout opening at the base of the chimney, close it tightly.

UL LISTED CHIMNEY

Carefully follow chimney manufacturer's instructions. Use only listed type HT per UL 103, 6-in diameter black or blued chimney connector, minimum 24 gauge steel. If your chimney starts at the ceiling (Fig. 6), you will need enough 6" pipe to reach the ceiling. The top of the chimney must be at least 3 feet above the roof and be at least 2 feet higher than any point of the roof within 10 feet. (Fig 6)

RULES FOR CONNECTOR PIPE INSTALLATION

1.Crimped end of the pipe must be installed away from the heater. The pipe must be hand formed to an oval shape which should slide into the collar top. The pipe should be firmly attached to the collar top with 3 screws and sealed with furnace cement. Slope any horizontal pipe upward toward the chimney at least

2.1/4 " inch for each foot of horizontal run.

You must have at least 18" inches clearance between any

3.horizontal piping and the ceiling. (Fig. 2)

The pipe cannot extend into the chimney flue.(Fig. 4)

4.Seal each connector pipe joint with furnace cement. Also seal

5.the pipe at the chimney.

Use 3 sheet metal screws at each joint to make the piping rigid.

6.It is recommended that no more than two (2) 90 degree bends

7.be used in the stove pipe installation as more than two (2) may decrease the amount of draw and possibly cause smoke spillage.

NOTE: The chimney connector shall not pass through an attic, roof space, floor, ceiling, or similar concealed space. Where passage through a wall or partition of combustible construction is desired, the installation must conform with NFPA 211.

Operation of the Stove

1.Burn wood or coal only. The wood should be air dried (seasoned) for at least 6 months after cutting. Build six (6) small fires upon initial firing. Light wood or coal using paper, twigs, etc.

2.After the fire has been started and is burning satisfactorily, adjust the rate of burning by opening or closing the draft control on side ofpa rt.

3.Never build extremely large fires in this type stove as damage to the stove or smoking may result.

4.If you have too much draft, then regulate the draft with a 6" cast iron stove pipe damper properly installed in the first joint of the stove pipe.

4. DO NOT touch the stove after firing

7.Never overfire this stove by building excessively hot fires as a house/building fire may result.

8.Inspect stove pipe every 90 days. Replace immediately if stove pipe is rusting or leaking smoke into the room.

9.This is a cast iron stove. It does not have welded seams. From time to time you may have to "tune-up" the stove by refilling and/or replacing the stove cement or mortar along the seams.

10.If stove begins to glow or turn red, you are overfiring.
