NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.
11. For residential installations, install the first section of
stove pipe with the crimped end going down inside
the flue collar on the heater. Continue with your stove
pipe, installing each section-crimped end down. Make
the final connection to your chimney. Your dealer
carries the necessary pipe and fittings to connect to the
various listed factory-built chimneys. YOUR CHIMNEY
INSTALLATION MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL BUILDING
AND FIRE CODES.
12. Be sure to fasten each stove pipe connection with at
least 3 sheet metal screws.
13. Install chimney as per manufacturer’s instructions.
Some brands of pipe may require removal of the spacer
ring in the flue collar.
14. All horizontal runs of pipe should be as short as possible
and are required by NFPA No. 211 to have an upward
pitch or rise in the same direction the smoke travels of
no less than 1/4” to the linear foot. The connector pipe
must meet minimum clearances in any direction to walls
or other combustible materials. It must attach to a listed
double wall metal chimney
at least 6” in diameter or to
a masonry chimney with a
flue passage of at least 48
square inches.
15. It is required that a chimney
connector pipe not extend
further than the inner wall of
the flue when it is connected
to a masonry chimney, and
that it either be cemented to
the masonry or be installed
without cement in a thimble
connected to the masonry
wall. When the connector
is inserted into a thimble,
the joint must be tight
enough so that it will not be
dislodged in normal use.
Install connector at no
less than the minimum
clearances from the ceiling
when using a 90-degree
elbow to pass through combustible constructions.
16. Chimney connector pipes should never pass through
a floor, ceiling, fire wall, partition, or combustible
construction of any type unless certain precautions are
taken. The best method is to use a listed thimble and a listed
chimney in accordance with the manufactures directions.
NFPA No. 211 gives approved methods for passing a
flue pipe through combustible constructions.

1. If not previously installed, install floor protection and
move the heater into the desired location.
2. Position the stove on your floor protection in the exact
location where it is to be located, making sure all
minimum clearances are met.
3. If you are installing outside air on your stove, mark a 4”
circle on the floor protection just below the oblong ring.
When cut out, this hole will accommodate the flexible
outside air tube.
4. If the stove is to be fastened to the floor, locate the hold
down brackets inside the leg box and mark the floor
protection below the holes in the brackets.
5. If you are installing outside air on your stove, remove
the stove and cut the floor protection and the floor
where the 4” air tube circle had been previously drawn.
If the stove is to be fastened to the floor, drill ½” holes
through the floor protection only, at the marks that were
for fastening the stove to the floor if so desired. Slip the
flexible outside air tube through the hole in the floor,
leaving 1” of tube above the floor protector surface,
using tape to hold it in place.
6. Place the stove on the floor protection so that the
previously cut or drilled holes line up. Attach the stove
to the floor with the lag bolts if so desired.
7. If you are installing outside air on your stove place the
hose clamp over the flexible air tube and slide the tube
up over the 4” ring on the outside air adaptor box and
tighten the hose clamp. Push the outside air adaptor
forward 1/4” until full contact is made with the lower
heatshield. Tighten the 1/4” bolt until the adaptor box is
held firmly in place. Use silicone sealant to create a seal
between the flexible air tube and your floor protection.
8. If it is necessary to level, secure or ground your
stove, use the holes in the bottom of the leg for those
applications. To level the stove on Olympic cast legs,
locate the front leg that is not touching the hearth pad.
Insert the allen head screw through the slotted washer
(supplied with the legs) and into the threaded hole in the
bottom of the leg. See the drawing to the right. Push the
slotted washer down until it touches the hearth pad and
then tighten the screw into the leg. Should any other leg
not be resting on the hearth pad, install a washer and
screw in that leg as well.
9. Install bricks and baffle as per instructions on page 11.
It is highly recommended that the baffle be assembled
before the chimney is installed so that the insulating
fiber blankets can be adjusted into place through the
flue collar.
10. If installed into a mobile home, the stove shall be
grounded to the mobile home chassis with a #8 AGW
copper wire or equivalent.
