Chimney connections The stove must be connected to either a masonry or manufactured metal chimney built and tested to the specifications listed on the previous pages. Chimneys perform two functions: 1). As a means of exhausting smoke and flue gases which are the result of fuel combustion. 2). The chimney provides “draft” which allows oxygen to be continuously introduced into the appliance, so that proper combustion is possible. This stove relies on natural draft to operate.
