Install the stove as close as practical to the
chimney, while maintaining all proper
clearances. Install stovepipe that is as short and
as straight as possible. Horizontal runs
of
stovepipe should always rise away from the
stove a minimum of 1/4" per foot (21mm/m).
Long runs of stovepipe to increase heat
dispersal are not recommended. Using longer
lengths of stovepipe or more connecting elbows
than necessary increase the chances of draft
resistance and the accumulation of creosote
buildup.
In general, you do not need to install a stovepipe
damper with the Deva. Some installations,
however, could benefit from a stovepipe
damper, such as a tall chimney which can create
a higher than normal draft. In such cases, a
damper can help regulate the draft. The Deva
requires a draft between 0.06" w.c. and 0.1" w.c.
For drafts above 0.1" w.c, install a stovepipe
damper. Locate your local HearthStone dealer to
purchase a draft gauge to measure the draft of
your chimney and flue system.
Remember, the NFPA has recommended,
minimum clearances for chimney connectors to
combustibles such as walls and ceilings.

When connecting the Deva 100 to a
prefabricated metal chimney, you must follow,
precisely, the manufacturer's installation
instructions. Use only Type HT (2100 deg. F),
prefabricated metal chimneys listed per UL 103
or ULC S629 standards.
▌ WARNING:
DO NOT CONNECT THE STOVE TO A
CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER
APPLIANCE.
Make sure the size of the chimney’s flue is
appropriate for the Deva 100. The Deva 100
requires a 6" (152 mm) inside diameter flue for
new installations. A 6” diameter flue provides
adequate draft and performance. You can use
an 8" (203 mm) diameter existing flue with a
reducer. An oversized flue contributes to
creosote accumulation. (In this case, bigger is
NOT better.)
When purchasing a prefabricated chimney to
install with your stove, be sure to also purchase
from the same manufacturer, the wall pass-
through (or ceiling support package), "T"
section package, fire-stops (when needed),
insulation shield, roof flashing, chimney cap,
and any other needed accessories. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions when installing the
chimney and accessories. In addition, be sure to
maintain all manufacturers’ recommendations
for the proper clearances to the chimney.
There are two ways to install a prefabricated
metal chimney:
• An interior installation where the chimney
passes inside the residence through the
ceiling and roof.
•
An exterior installation where the chimney
passes through the wall behind the stove
then up the outside of the residence.
