A non-combustible oor protector is required under all freestanding units; refer to “CLearanCes to

CombustibLes”. When venting into a masonry chimney, the oor protector must be installed directly below

the chimney vent and 2” (50.8 mm) on either side of the chimney vent.

Vent the stove into a clean, lined, approved masonry chimney in good condition, conforming to local

building codes and meeting the minimum standards of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).

Make sure there are no cracks, loose mortar or other signs of deterioration and blockage. Have the

chimney cleaned before the stove is installed and operated, or vent with a listed 6” (150 mm) factory-

built chimney suitable for use with solid fuels and conforming to ULC-S629 Standard for 650°C factory-

Built Chimneys in CANADA or UL 103 HT Factory-Built Chimneys for Residential Type and Building Heating

Appliances in the U.S.A. Connect the stove to this chimney with a short and straight 6” (150 mm), 24

gauge or heavier, single-wall black or blued steel smoke pipe. Connection to all masonry chimneys must

be a metal or masonry thimble cemented in place. All smoke pipes must slope upwards, all connections

must be tight and secured with three sheet metal screws equally spaced. The smoke pipe length should

not exceed 40% of the chimney height above the stove.

When connecting the stove through a combustible wall to a masonry chimney, additional steps are

required. Consult the chimney connector manufacturer and refer to Figure 17.
