Venting Guidelines:
ALWAYS install vent pipe in strict adherence to the instructions and clearances included with
your venting system.
• DO NOT connect this wood stove to a chimney flue which also serves another appliance.
• DO NOT install a flue pipe damper
or any other restrictive device in the exhaust venting system of this unit.
• USE an approved wall thimble when passing through a wall and a ceiling support/fire stop
when passing through a ceiling.
• INSTALL three sheet metal screws at every chimney connector joint.
• AVOID excessive horizontal runs and elbows, as both will reduce the draft of the venting
system and will result in poor stove performance.
• INSPECT your venting system often, to be certain it is clear of creosote, fly‐ash and other
restrictions.
• CLEAN the venting system as detailed in the maintenance section of this manual.
• ADHERE to the 10‐3‐2 rule regarding chimney terminations.
• INSTALL single wall chimney connector with the male end down to prevent creosote
leakage. Follow double wall chimney connector manufacturer's instructions regarding proper
pipe installation.
WARNING: Venting system surfaces get HOT, and can cause burns if touched. Noncombustible
shielding or guards may be required

centerline passes through the roof AND the chimney must terminate 2.0 ft. above part of the
dwelling within a 10 ft. radius of the chimney.
