
Whenchoosingalocationforyournewstove,thereareamultitudeoffactorsthat
shouldbetakenintoaccountbeforebeginningtheinstallation.

1.TrafficPatterns–Tohelppreventaccidents,thestoveshouldbeplacedinalocation
whereitisoutofthewayofnormaltravelthroughthe home.

2.HeatFlow–Whendecidingonalocationforthestove,considerthewayheatmoves
throughoutyourhome.Installthestovewhereyouneedtheheat;basement
installationsoftendonotallowsufficientheattoflowtotheupperfloorsandatop
floorinstallationwillnotallow any heattoreachthefloorsbelow. Alwaysconsider
thatheatrisesandwilltakethepathofleastresistancewhileitisstillhot.

3.ExhaustLocation–Theenginewhichdrivesawoodstoveisthechimneysystem,so
itisimportanttoconsiderpreciselyhowthechimneysystemwillbeintegratedinto
thestoveinstallation. Ideally,awoodstovechimney willruncompletelyvertical
fromthefluecollaroftheunitallthewaytotheterminationpointabovetheroof
line. Keepingtheentirechimneysysteminsidetheheatedenvelopeofthehome
willensureastrong,easytoinitiatedraftinthechimney. Althoughexteriorchimney
systemsoftenfunctionproperly,theyaremorelikelytosufferfromcolddowndrafts
atstartuporprovideweakdrafttotheunit. Also,considerthecross‐sectionalarea
ofthechimney;althoughexistingmasonrychimneyscanoftenbeused,alarge
externalmasonrychimneywillresultinaunitthatisdifficultorimpossibleto
operateproperly. Inthatcase,aninsulatedchimneylinerwilloftenberequiredto
supplythenecessarydraft.
