SECTION I: FLUE SYSTEM

A. Existing Flue System

If you have chosen a freestanding unit, this stove is designed to connect to an existing flue system, such as masonry or a pre-manufactured Class A flue system. If you have a masonry flue system, the inner liner should be inspected carefully for cracks; if there is no liner in your chimney, we recommend you install a steel liner or have one installed. If you have an existing pre-manufactured system the inner liner should be inspected for warping or buckling. Either type chimney system should be thoroughly cleaned before installing your new stove. We strongly recommend you have a qualified chimney sweep clean and inspect your entire system, as the sweep can spot problems you might overlook. The sweep in most cases can make any necessary repairs or recommend a qualified person to do so. It is not permissible to connect this unit to a chimney that is servicing another unit.

B. Flue Size

The proper flue size is determined by measuring the inside diameter of the flue collar on the unit. This stove is equipped with a six inch (6”) TOP EXHAUST FLUE COLLAR. Therefore, the connector pipe should be six inches (6”) and never less in diameter than the collar on the stove. The area of the chimney liner must also be equal to or greater than the area of the flue collar on the stove. If the area of the flue is greater than the collar, it should never be more than three (3) times greater.

Example:

The area of a six inch (6”) diameter flue collar is 28.87 square inches, therefore the connector pipe should be at least six inches (6”) in diameter but no greater than 84.8 square inches.

The black connector pipe should be 24 gauge steel and eighteen inches (18”) from a combustible wall or ceiling. This clearance can be reduced to six inches (6”) if you are using a double wall or shielded pipe.

C. Installation of a New Flue System

1.Masonry Flue: In the event that you plan to install or have a system installed, there are several approaches that you can take. In the middle and late seventies masonry flue systems became very popular, and today this type system is satisfactory. If you are considering a masonry system, you should consult with your local building officials for the proper procedures on this type chimney. We recommend you consult with and have your flue built by a licensed, bonded contractor. Most masonry chimney systems are placed against an outside wall and extend upward beside the house. The flue thimble is then inserted through the wall, making the connection with the stovepipe and the vertical flue. Exercise extreme caution when drilling through the wall -- you must maintain proper clearance between the connecting liner and any combustible material in the wall.
