CONNECTOR PIPE INSTALLATION
Connector pipe is used to make the connection
from the final positioning of your stove to an approved
chimney. Connector pipe is
NOT included as part of
the stove. Connector pipe must be 6”/152mm diameter
minimum of 24 MSG (minimum standard gauge) black
or 26 MSG blue steel stove pipe.
NOTICE: FOR MOBILE HOME INSTALLATIONS
(US ONLY), CONNECTOR PIPE MUST BE
DOUBLE-WALL, HIGH-TEMPURATURE PIPE
THAT MEETS UL 103 HT SPECIFICATIONS.
Any connector pipe used must be in good condition.
Replace if necessary before using stove. Connector
pipe is not rated to provide close contact to combustible
materials and must have proper clearance from com-
bustible materials as shown in the clearance diagrams
on the previous pages. Connector pipe should never be
used in place of a chimney. If proper clearances are not
observed a house fire could result.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please Note: Installation of a flue damper is NOT
recommended. Combustion control is regulated by the
intake of combustion air, not the exhaust.
1. The crimped end of the stovepipe fits inside the
stove flue collar. Secure with three (3) equally
spaced sheet metal screws. The first section of
connector pipe must be single walled to properly
attach to the stove collar. Install additional pipe and
elbow with the crimped end towards the stove. This
will allow any condensation in the flue to run back
into the firebox.
2. Horizontal pipe runs must slope upwards
towards the chimney at least 1/4˝/6.4mm per foot
of horizontal run.
3. You must have at least 18˝/457mm of clearance
between any horizontal piping and the ceiling.
4. The pipe cannot extend into the chimney flue
(figure 8).
5. Secure all pipe/elbow sections with three (3) equally
spaced sheet metal screws at each joint to make
the piping rigid. DO NOT CONNECT THIS STOVE
TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.
6. It is recommended that no more than two (2)
90° bends be used in the stovepipe installa-
tion. The use of more than two 90° bends may
decrease the amount of draw and possibly
cause smoke spillage. Where possible, use only
corrugated (non adjustable) elbows. These
provide a better seal.
7. The connector pipe must not pass through an
attic or roof space, trusses, closet, or any concealed
space, floor, ceiling, wall, or combustible construc-
tion. (See Chimney Connector Systems & Clear-
ances, page 13.) A manufactured chimney system
listed to UL 103 HT (US)/ULC-S629 (CDN) must
be used from the first penetration of ceiling or wall
to the chimney cap.
Where passage through a wall or partition of com-
bustible construction is desired, the installation shall
conform to NFPA 211 (USA) or CAN/CSA-B365
(Canada).
WARNING: DO NOT USE SINGLE WALL CON-
NECTOR PIPE AS A CHIMNEY - A HOUSE FIRE
COULD RESULT.
