Chimney Requirements

DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE .

Chimney connector must be a minimum 24 MSG black or 26 MSG blued steel (6" diameter). Chimney must be used from the first floor or wall penetration to the chimney cap.

Use 6" diameter type UL 103 HT chimney from one manufacturer (do not mix brands) or code approved masonry chimney with a flue liner.

Chimney connector and chimney must be fastened to the stove and each adjoining section.

Follow the chimney manufacturer's clearances and requirements.

Use the chimney manufacturer's fire stops, attic guards, roof supports, and flashings when passing through a ceiling or thimble when passing through a combustible wall.

No more than 180o of elbows (two 90o elbows, or two 45o & one 90o elbow, etc.).
