CAUTION
Special methods are required when passing through a wall or ceiling. See in-
structions and building codes.

DETERMINING THE CHIMNEY LOCATION

A. CEILING EXIT (Using Single Wall Pipe and UL 103 HT type chimney system listed
with manufacturer in this section of manual.)

1. Suspend a plumb bob from the ceiling above the unit so that the weight is hanging in

the center of the flue exit (See Figure 6). (A small weight on a string will serve as a
plumb bob.) Mark the ceiling where the string is suspended to locate the center of the
chimney.


2. After locating the center of the hole, install the ceiling support box, chimney flashing

and rain cap per the chimney manufacturer's instructions.


3. Now connect the stove and ceiling support box using #24 ga. minimum blued or

black steel connector pipe (DO NOT USE GALVANIZED PIPE). Connect each
section so the crimped end faces downward, and secure each section to each other
using at least three (3) sheet metal screws or rivets. Also use three (3) sheet metal
screws to fasten pipe to collar on heater. (See Figure 7.)

FLOOR PROTECTION:

If this heater is to be installed on a combustible floor, a non-combustible pad must be placed
below it to protect the floor from burning material from the heater. The pad must be 39" wide
and 40" deep. A UL tested floor protector with a 3/8" minimum thickness, non-combustible
material or equivalent, must be used.
The heater must be positioned on the pad so that there is a minimum of 16" from the front of the
door opening to the front of the pad, and a minimum of 6" measured horizontally from the sides
of the heater.
