Operation Of The Heater
1. Burn wood or wood products only. The wood should be well seasons prior to use for maximum efciency.
2. Provide air into the room for combustion.
3. Do Not touch the heater after ring until it has cooled.
4. Do Not use a grate or elevate re, build re directly on hearth. The fuel feed door must remain closed during
operation.
MASONRY CHIMNEY
The masonry chimney must comply with UL, ULC codes.
Before using an existing masonry chimney, clean the chimney
and inspect the ue liner to be sure it is safe to use. Make
repairs before attaching the heater. See Page 3, Item 5.
Look at Fig. 5. The connector pipe and ttings you will need
to connect directly to a masonry chimney are shown. If the
connector pipe must go through a combustible wall before
entering the masonry chimney, consult a qualied mason or
chimney dealer. The installation must conform to local re
codes, and NFPA 211(USA) or CAN/CSA-B365-M91(CANADA).
Do not connect this heater into the same chimney ue as the
replace or ue from another heater. The chimney used for a
heater must not be used to ventilate the cellar or basement. If
there is a cleanout opening at the base of the chimney, close
it tightly.
UL/ULC LISTED CHIMNEY
Carefully follow chimney manufacturer's instructions. Use only
listed type HT per UL, ULC 103, 6-in diameter black or blued
chimney connector, minimum 24 gauge steel. If your chimney
starts at the ceiling (Fig. 6), you will need enough 6" pipe to
reach the ceiling.
The top of the chimney must be at least 3 feet above the roof
and be at least 2 feet higher than any point of the roof within
10 feet. (Fig 6). Use double or triple wall pipe for the exterior
portion of the chimney.
RULES FOR CONNECTOR PIPE INSTALLATION
1. Crimped end of the pipe must be installed toward the
heater. The pipe should slide into the ue collar. The pipe
should be rmly attached to the ue collar with 3 screws
and sealed with furnace cement.
2. Slope any horizontal pipe upward toward the chimney
at least 1/4 inch for each foot of horizontal run. Horizontal
section must be a minimum of 24" from stove.
3. You must have at least 18" inches clearance between
any horizontal piping and the ceiling.
4. The pipe cannot extend into the chimney ue.(Fig. 7)
5. Seal each connector pipe joint with furnace cement.
Also, seal the pipe at the chimney. Seal the inside with
high temperature silicone and the outside with high
temperature tape.
6. Use 3 sheet metal screws at each joint to make the piping
rigid.
