Chimney Connector Requirements
• Chimney connector is required from the flue collar of the stove to the factory-built chimney or
masonry chimney.
• The chimney connector must be 6” diameter and a minimum 24 gauge black steel, or one of the
reduced-clearance connectors listed on page 8.
NOTE: Aluminum or galvanized steel is not allowed – these materials can not withstand the flue
temperatures and may give off toxic fumes when heated.
NOTE: Standard residential installations may use single-wall connector (Mobile-Homes may not
).
• The chimney connector may not pass through a ceiling, attic, roof, closet, or any other concealed
space (use listed UL 103 HT chimney – see “Chimney Requirements for details). DO NOT USE
CONNECTOR PIPE AS CHIMNEY.
• IN CANADA: Where passage through a wall, or partition of combustible construction is desired, the
installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and
Equipment.
• The chimney connector should be as short and direct as possible. No more than 180
o
of elbows (two
90
o
elbows, or two 45
o
& one 90
o
elbow, etc.) may be used for the entire system (connector and
chimney).. Horizontal runs should slope upwards 1/4” per foot and be a maximum 36” long.
• The chimney connector must be installed with the crimped end pointing downwards. This prevents
creosote from leaking to the exterior of the pipe.
• The chimney connector must be fastened to the stove and each adjoining section (and chimney).
• Standard residential installations may use single-wall connector (Mobile-Homes may not
)
• Standard residential installations with reduced clearance connector may use the clearance
determined by the manufacturer of the connector for the connector to wall clearance or the clearance
listed in this manual. Offsets must be used to maintain the stove to wall clearance. Mobile homes
must use the clearances listed in this manual under "Additional Requirements for Mobile Home
Installations".
