Stove Installation (for qualified installers only)

Chimney Connector Requirements

•Chimney connector is required from the flue collar of the stove to the factory-built chimney (see Figure 7) or masonry chimney (see Figures 13, 14, and 15).

•The chimney connector must be 6” diameter and a minimum 24 gauge black steel, 26 gauge blued steel, or one of the reduced-clearance connectors listed on page 8.

NOTE: Aluminum or galvanized steel is not allowed – these materials can not withstand the flue temperatures and may give off toxic fumes when heated.

NOTE: Standard residential installations may use single-wall connector (Mobile-Homes may not).

•The chimney connector may not pass through a ceiling, attic, roof, closet, or any other concealed space (use listed UL 103 HT chimney – see “Chimney Requirements for details). DO NOT USE CONNECTOR PIPE AS CHIMNEY.

•The chimney connector should be as short and direct as possible. No more than 180o of elbows (two 90o elbows, or two 45o & one 90o elbow, etc.) may be used for the entire system (connector and chimney).. Horizontal runs should slope upwards 1/4” per foot and be a maximum 36” long.

•The chimney connector must be installed with the crimped end pointing downwards (see Figure 7). This prevents creosote from leaking to the exterior of the pipe.

•The chimney connector must be fastened to the stove and each adjoining section (and chimney).

•In cases where the chimney connector must be passed through a combustible wall or partition, the following NFPA 211 method may be used if local building codes permit. Check with local authorities before installation to insure all necessary requirements have been met. Figure 6 details a wall pass- through based on the NFPA 211 standard.
