A. USING AN EXISTING CHIMNEY

Measure the height of the chimney beforehand and purchase the appropriate kit. Never attempt to over stretch a flexible liner to accommodate the height of the chimney.

Any flue damper must be removed or locked permanently in the open position.

The chimney must be clean, in good working order and constructed out of non-combustible materials.

Make sure that all chimney clean-outs are tightly fitting and will not permit air to leak into the chimney.

Make all gas connections and check for leaks.

See vent manufacturer's instructions for vent system clearances to combustibles and vent terminal clearance from roof.

MANUFACTURERS GENERAL VENTING

GUIDELINES

This information is compiled by the manufacturer as a very general rule for single appliance venting of the EG95 gas stove with 4" Type B gas vent.

Venting code and regulations may vary from area to area, please check with the local, state/provincial codes regarding the suitability of your application.

For other special venting requirements, please refer to the local, state/provincial or national codes.

For best venting performance, we recommend total vent height of 10 ft (3m) to 30 ft (9m). Total horizontal length depends on the number of elbows used. The venting

Should never slope down. 1/4" rise per 2' horizontal is recommended.

If practical, it is best to locate the appliance to permit the use of shorter horizontals and fewer elbows. -Two 90° elbow, maximum total horizontal length of

20 ft (6m).

-Three 90° elbow, maximum total horizontal length of 13 ft (3.8m).

-Four 90° elbow, maximum total horizontal length of 6 ft (1.9m).

-Five 90° elbow, maximum total horizontal length of 0 ft (0m).

If 45° elbows are used, one 90° elbow is equivalent to two 45° elbows.

Venting rise should be a minimum of 1 ft (.31m). from the top of the unit before any horizontal run.

The bottom of the vent cap shall extend at least 2 ft. (.6m) above the highest point of the roof where it passes through and at least 2 ft (.6m) higher than any portion of the roof within a horizontal distance of 10 ft. (3m).
