Installation

INSTALLATION OF A LISTED, FACTORY BUILT CHIMNEY - FREESTANDING:

This is a generic set of instructions; always follow the chimney manufacturer’s instructions explicitly. Also refer to “RECOMMENDED HEIGHTS FOR FLUE PIPE”.

1.Set floor protector and stove in location in accordance with the “CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES - 1200

FREESTANDING” or “CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES - 1700 FREESTANDING”.

2.Mark the position for the ceiling hole by suspending a plumb bob from the ceiling over the exact center of your stove flue and mark a spot on the ceiling to indicate the center of the chimney.

3.Move this location, if necessary, to avoid floor joists, ceiling rafters, electrical wiring and plumbing while still maintaining required clearances. If floor joists or ceiling rafters must be cut they must be made structurally sound again. Install chimney according to chimney manufacturers instructions. A chimney connector cannot pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or a floor, ceiling, wall or partition of combustible construction. In Canada, if passage through a wall or partition of combustible construction is desired, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365 Installation Code for Solid- Fuel Burning Appliances and Equipment and NFPA 211 Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances.

4.Mark the hole for the outside air kit.

5.Move the stove out of the way.

6.Cut a pilot hole in the ceiling.

7.Cut a hole for the ceiling penetration components and frame in the sides of the hole in both the ceiling and roof. Check, and follow chimney manufacturer’s instructions for all of these steps.

8.Install the support box and chimney through the roof. Install the slip section for the chimney connector.

9.Slip the roof flashing over the chimney and secure to the roof, being careful to keep the pipe centered in the opening. To meet the code, the chimney must extend above the roof penetration at least 3 feet (91.4 cm),
