Through-the-wall Penetration
Mark the plumb line on the wall directly behind
the center of the stack (See Figure
8). Place
the vertical position of the stove pipe and the
elbow in position and project a point onto the
plumb line level with the center of the elbow.
Measure up
so there will be at least 1/4" rise
per foot of horizontal conneclor plpo, maintain
c1earnaces to colling noted In Figure 8. This will
give you the cenler of the hole for the chimney
penetration.
Connect the stack to the chimney using
#24 ga-
minimum, blued or black steel connector pipe,
8" diameter, for models 26000-8,27000-8 and
28000.
DO NOT use galvanized pipe. Connect
each section
so the crimpled end faces
downward, and secure each section to each
other using at least three steel sheet metal
screws or rivets.
After locating the center of the penetration, in·
stall the chimney as per the chimney manufac-
turer's specifications.
When the chimney conneCtor is connected using a
900 elbow and penetrating a wall into a flue,
the minimun clearance from the top of the chimney connector and a ceiling is
18 inches (See
Figure
8). In addition, all combustible materials must be removed around the complete cir-
cumference of the thimble extending through to the masonry of the flue. Refer to local building
codes or NFPA-211 Code for proper installation or use a UL listed wall thimble.
Connections to
an existing masonry flue must conform to the 1976 edition of the Uniform
Mechanical Code, Section 915, paragraph E (Entering Masonry Chimney), which states:
"A connector entering a masonry chimney shall extend through the wall to the inner face of the
liner, but not beyond, and shall be firmly cemented to masonry. A thimble may be used to
facilitate removal of the connector for cleaning,
in which case the thimble shall be permanent-
ly cemented in place with high temperature cement. The chimney connector shall enter the
chimney not less than six inches from the bottom of the chimney. The chimney shall be
provided with a cleanout.
If six inches are not available, a cleanout shall be provided".

FINAL CHECK
1. Recheck the specified clearances.
2. Remove all foreign material from the firebox area.
3. Open the primary air drafts and damper.
4. Plug the power cord into a 115 VAC outlet, do not route the cord under the slove.
5. Place a crumpled piece of newspaper in the stove. Light it and close the doors. Ensure
that the stove draws properly through the primary drafts. The paper should burn quickly
and with a pronounced roaring sound.
