equal to the chimney height from the hearth. If
outside combustion air is to be used, you will need
a pipe length superior from 12 to 18 inches (30 to
46 cm) of the chimney height to ensure a proper
stove behaviour.
1. Position stove, following clearances and fol-
lowing vent manufacturer's instructions.

ney to seal the fireplace damper. Stainless steel
plate and screws are recommended. Cut a hole
for the exhaust pipe. If needed, cut a second hole
for the air intake pipe
3. Attach a section of pipe and clean out tee to the
flue outlet, making sure the clean out tee is cen-
tered in the chimney flue area.
4. Install a vented flashing at the top of the fireplace
chimney. Stainless steel plate and screws are
recommended. Cut a hole for the vent pipe. If
needed, cut a second hole for the air intake pipe.
