Horizontal Installation

Standard Ceiling Installation

8) To complete your chimney installation, in-

stall the double wall connector pipe from
the stove’s flue collar to the chimney sup-
port device.

9) If you are using a horizontal connector, the

chimney connector should be as high as
possible while still maintaining the 18" min-
imum distance from the horizontal connec-
tor to the ceiling.

10) NOTE: Residential Close Clearance

and Alcove installations require a list-
ed double wall connector from the
stove collar to the ceiling level.

The diagrams below illustrate one way to install
your unit into a standard ceiling or with a
horizontal connector. Check with your dealer
or installer for information on other options
available to you.

5) Install all 4 legs with the washer underneath

the leg and tighten the bolts.

6) Level the stove by adjusting the levelling

bolts in the bottom of each leg.

The instructions below apply to the steel leg,
painted cast leg and the gold plated cast leg. It
will be easier to attach the legs to the stove if
it is tipped on its back (preferably on a soft
surface to prevent scratching).

1) Remove the 4 bolts in the underside of the

base and discard.

2) Line up the bottom of the heat shield (with

cover plate facing front) with the bottom of
the unit.

3) Start threading the bolt and washer (sup-

plied with the bottom shield) for about 1/4
of the way through the leg.

4) Place the spacers into position in the 4

corners of the bottom shield on top of the
bolts.

INSTALLATION

STEP BY STEP

CHIMNEY AND

CONNECTOR

INSTALLATION:

Note: These are a generic set of chim-

ney installation instructions. Al-
ways follow the manufacturers
own instructions explicitly. Check
Table 1 on page 14 for the Mini-
mum Recommended Flue Heights.

1) With your location already established, cut

and frame the roof hole. It is recommended
that no ceiling support member be cut for
chimney and support box installation. If it is
necessary to cut them, the members must
be made structurally sound.

2) Install radiant shield and support from above.

3) Stack the insulated pipe onto your finish

support to a minimum height of 3 feet above
the roof penetration, or 2 feet above any
point within 10 feet measured horizontally.
There must be at least 3 feet of chimney
above the roof level.

Note: Increasing the chimney height

above this minimum level will
sometimes help your unit to
“breathe” better by allowing a
greater draft to be created. This
greater draft can decrease prob-
lems such as, difficult start-ups,
back-smoking when door is open,
and dirty glass. It might be suffi-
cient to initially try with the mini-
mum required height, and then if
problems do arise add additional
height at a later date.

4) Slide the roof flashing over your chimney

and seal the flashing to the roof with
roofing compound. Secure the flashing to
your roof with nails or screws.

5) Place the storm collar over the flashing,

sealing the joints with a silicone caulking.

6) Fasten the raincap with spark screens (if

required) to the top of your chimney.

7) For optimum efficiency when installing into

a masonry chimney, size accordingly, i.e.
the 6" flue dia. is 28.28 sq.in.
