5. Assemble chimney sections so the finished length
is resting on the support and protruding through the
roof. Avoid having joints between ceiling and roof.
Install radiation shield. Assemble flashing and storm
collar and be sure to maintain the vapour barrier at
this point. (Seal securely.) Attach rain cap and check
flashing for leaks.
6. Install connector as per manufacturer's instructions.
7. Attach stove to flooring using two 1/4" x 2" or longer
lag screws.
Residential
Installation
Warning: Under no circumstances is this heater to be
installed in a makeshift or "temporary" manner. It may be
fired only after the following conditions have been met.
* DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CONNECT THIS HEATER
TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT.
* The services of competent installer are strongly rec-
ommended.
* Outside combustion air or fresh air into the room may
be required in your area, consult local building codes
(see Combustion Air section).
- The services of a competent or certified installer, (certified
by the Wood Energy Technical Training program (WETT)
- in Canada, Hearth Education Foundation (HEARTH) - in
U.S.A.,) are strongly recommended.
Clearances
1. This heater may be installed using a single-wall con-
nector (smoke pipe) or listed double-wall connector
(see Mobile Home installation).
2. Clearances to combustible surfaces and materials
using single-wall connector are shown in Figure #1,
page 5.
Clearances may be reduced with various heat insulat-
ing materials. Consult local fire codes and authorities
for approval.
3. Alternately, for close clearances, use a listed double-
wall connector. See Figure #1, page 5.
Chimney and Connector
Connect to a listed chimney or a chimney suitable for use
with solid fuel that is lined and in good condition and
meets local building codes. The chimney flue size should
be the same as the stove outlet for optimal performance.
Reducing or increasing the flue size may adversely affect
stove performance. Chimney flue exit is to be 3 feet (1 m.)
above roof and two feet (0.6 m.) above highest projection
within 10 feet (3 m.). The installation must meet all local
codes. Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving
another appliance. Minimum system height is 15 feet (4.6
m.) (measured from base of appliance).
Double-Wall Connector
- Use a listed double-wall connector.
- Install all components to the chimney connector
manufacturer's installation requirements.
Single-Wall Connector
Smoke pipe must be:
* as short and straight as possible, use six inch diam-
eter, 24 gauge black pipe that is clean and in new
condition.
* secured at every joint and collar with 3 sheet metal
screws.
* installed with the crimped or male ends pointing down.
This will carry any liquid creosote or condensation
back into the stove.
* The chimney connector shall not pass through an attic,
roof space, closet or similar concealed space, floor,
or ceiling. Where passage through a wall, or partition
of combustible material is desired, the installation
shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code
for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment.
Procedure
1. If a listed chimney and double-wall connector is to
be connected to the stove, install all components to
the chimney manufacturer's installation requirements.
(Outside combustion air may be required, consult
local building codes. See Combustion Air section.)
2. If it is desirable to use smoke pipe in conjunction with
the insulated chimney, see step 4.
3. If a roof or ceiling support is used in the installation,
you will find the chimney manufacturer's complete
instructions packed with the roof support.
4. To start installing smoke pipe (chimney connector),
slip crimped edge of the pipe inside the stove collar.
Use holes provided in collar to secure pipe with three
screws.
5. Install the remaining lengths of pipe one on top of the
other to the finished height of the chimney connector
and secure to each other.
