Common Method
This method requires the removal of all combustible materials from at least 18” (457mm) around the chimney connector’s proposed location. With a 6” round liner the minimum area required would be 43” x 43” square.
It is important to remember to locate the
The space that is cleared of combustible materials must then remain empty. Sheet metal panels can then be used to cover the area. However, when using a panel on both sides of the wall each cover must be installed on noncombustible spacers at least 1” from the wall. If one panel of sheet metal is to be used it may be installed flush to the wall.
SEE SECTION 5.3.1 and 5.3.2 of CAN/CSA - B365-M91.

CONNECTING TO THE CHIMNEY
Masonry Chimney
When installing a OSLO F500 into a masonry chimney through a “thimble”(the opening through the chimney wall to the flue), the thimble must be lined with ceramic tile or metal and be securely cemented in place.
The chimney connector/stove pipe must slide completely inside the thimble to the inner surface or the flue liner. It may be necessary to make use of a thimble sleeve (a pipe with a slightly smaller diameter than standard stove pipe). This special pipe can be easily installed into a thimble. See figure 4.
Make sure the connector pipe or thimble sleeve does not protrude into the flue liner, thereby restricting the area the smoke has to flow through. This
The chimney connector should be sealed at the thimble with refractory cement and the stove pipe leading to the stove should have a minimum of three screws.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS STOVE TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVICING ANOTHER APPLIANCE OF ANY KIND.
Connector pipe shall be flush with the inside of the flue tile
