CONNECTION TO A MASONRY CHIMNEY
The chimney must have a fire clay flue liner or equivalent with a minimum thickness of 5/8” 16mm and must be installed with refractory mortar. There must be at least ½” 13mm air space between the flue liner and the chimney wall Figure 4. An equivalent liner must be a listed chimney liner system or other approved material
Remember that insulation must not contact the chimney. There must be air space around the chimney. Insulation must be 2” 50mm or more from the chimney Figure
2. THIMBLE An approved thimble must be used when the connection from the stove is made through a combustible wall to a masonry chimney. There are several methods you can use for connection through a combustible wall, two of which are illustrated in this manual. For additional methods, consult local building authorities or use the standards set forth in NFPA
B. 6” SOLID PACK CHIMNEY WITH METAL SUPPORTS AS A THIMBLE For the method of installation to a masonry chimney shown in Figures 10 and 11 page 13, it will be necessary to purchase a 6” 152mm inside diameter, 12” 305mm long section of prefabricated listed solid pack chimney to use as a thimble. Purchase a wall spacer, trim collar and wall band that are manufactured to fit the chimney section you purchase. Cut out a 14 ½” 368mm diameter opening in the wall. It may be necessary to cut wall studs and install a header and sill frame to maintain the wall support. The hole in the chimney must have at least a 6” 152mm diameter fire clay liner or equivalent, secured with refractory mortar. If it is necessary to cut a hole in the chimney liner, use extreme care to keep it from shattering
