Refer to Figures 24, 25, and 26. Clearances from Table #1
BEFORE INSTALLATION
If the optional kits for the Jet Air fan, the Rear Shield, or the Side Shield are purchased, they are easiest to mount before
the stove is installed. See instructions packed with each kit.
When a metal prefabricated chimney is used, the manufacturer's installation instructions must be followed precisely. You
must also purchase (from the same manufacturer) and install the ceiling support package or wall pass through and "T"
section package, fire stops (when needed), insulation shield, roof flashing, chimney cap, etc. Maintain the proper
clearance to the structure as recommended by the manufacturer.
1. Set floor protection and stove in location; refer to the clearance dimensions listed on the label and in these
instructions.
2. Mark -the position for the hole in the wall.
3. IF REQUIRED, be sure to mark the hole for Outside Air Kit.
4. Move the stove out of the way.
5. If outside air is required, use a saber saw with a masonry blade and cut an appropriate hole for the outside air pipe.
6. Cut pilot hole in the wall.
7. Cut the hole for the thimble components and frame in the sides of this hole. Install Listed thimble. Refer to the pipe
manufacturer's installation instructions.
8. Follow the Manufacturer's Installation Instructions to install Prefabricated Chimney system. NOTE: To meet the
code, the chimney must extend above the roof at least three feet and two feet above any area of the roof within ten
feet of the termination of the chimney. Chimney connectors can be used horizontally between the stove and chimney
if the horizontal length does not exceed three feet AND THE CONNECTOR SLOPES UPWARD TOWARD THE
CHIMNEY AT 1/4" PER FOOT. The slope is required for water vapor to drain back into the stove. Use a carpenter's
level to check the slope and the vertical alignment of the chimney connector. The connector may have no more than
one 90 degree or two 45 degree bends. The distance between horizontal connector and ceiling must not be less
than 18". All sections must be secured together and to
the stove with no less than three sheet metal screws per
joint. Be sure all options are installed before putting the
stove in its final position.
9. Slide the stove back into position.
10. To install the Chimney Connector, slip the lower
(crimped) edge of the pipe inside the smoke collar.
Install the remaining lengths of pipe, one on top of the
other, to the wall thimble. The last (horizontal) section
must also be attached to the thimble with screws.
11. IF REQUIRED, install the Outside Air Flex Pipe.
12. If the OPTIONAL Fan Kit is installed, the fan motors are
equipped with a three-prong (grounded) plug to prevent
shock hazard. THIS PLUG SHOULD BE INSERTED
DIRECTLY INTO A PROPERLY GROUNDED, THREE-
PRONGED RECEPTACLE. DO NOT CUT OR
REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG FROM THIS
PLUG. Do not route the power cord in front of or under
this heater.
