2.4GENERAL INFORMATION. Installation Checklist:
A. Have your stove installed by a trained installer. Preferably one who is certified by the National Fireplace Institute or similar certification agency.
B. Before starting Installation, check for proper clearance to combustibles where the stove is going to be located.
C. Never vent a solid fuel burning appliance into a flue serving another appliance.
D. Have the chimney inspected and thoroughly cleaned. Inspect that it is a Class “A” chimney either masonry or factory built. If it is a manufactured chimney, ensure that it is installed as per the manufacturers requirements. Be sure that the chimney is tall enough. Solid fuel chimneys fall under a general rule, 16 ft. minimum height, 2 ft. taller than anything within 10 ft., and 3 ft. above where it passes through the roof line. The chimney must be capable of a minimum .06 inches of water column of draft when the stove is burning.
E. Limit the amount of connector pipe. Position the stove as close to the flue as possible. (8 ft. or less)
No more than two 90° elbow fittings should be used.
Any horizontal connector pipe should have at least 1/4 in. of rise per foot in length. A barometric damper may be installed to prevent excessive or erratic draft.
MANUAL DAMPERS OR “HEAT SAVERS” MUST NEVER BE INSTALLED IN THE FLUE PIPE. IMPROPER OPERATION COULD RESULT IN DEATH.
