COMBUSTION AIR
A chimney venting this stove shall not vent any solid
fuel burning appliance.
For optimum performance it is recommended that all
horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot.
Any stove needs air for safe operation and must be
installed in such a way that adequate combustion air is
available.
ADDING VENT
TIONS: For ease of assem-
bly, a 7" telescoping stove
pipe may be installed over the
4" vent connection of the
adapter. Add vent sections,
twist locking (clockwise) se-
curely, to the required height.
The vent should extend, at
least, 3 feet above its point of
contact with the roof and, at
least, 2 feet higher than any
wall, roof or building within 10
feet. FIGURE 26. (This is a
guideline only; local venting
codes should be followed
which may differ in height and
clearance requirements.)

INSTALLING FLASHING AND STORM
COLLAR
Remove nails
from the shingles
above and to the
sides of the chim-
ney. Place the
flashing over the
vent pipe and
slide it under-
neath the sides
and upper edge
of the shingles.
Ensure that the
vent pipe is properly centered within the flashing, giving a
3/4" margin all around. Fasten to the roof on the top and
sides. DO NOT NAIL through the lower portion of the flash-
ing. Make weather-tight by sealing with caulking. Where
possible, cover the sides and top edges of the flashing
with roofing material.
Apply waterproof caulking around the vent, 1" above the
top of the flashing and push the storm collar down into the
caulking. FIGURE 27. Attach a rain cap to the top of the last
vent section.
