Premanufactured Flue System: Inthe past few years premanufactured flue systems
have become very popular, because this type system is fairly easy to install and when
installed correctly, itis very safe. There are many premanufactured flue systems on
the market to choose from.
In making your choice be sure the system has a
recognized label of approval such as U.L., B.O.C.A. or IL.C.B.O.
Any of these
approvals will insure the flue systemis constructed of the proper materials and meets
required safety standards.
Your local Englander dealer will usually handle a top
grade and approved flue system. There are two very popular methods for installation
of a premanufactured flue system. The first, most popular is through the ceiling and
out the roof. This is the most direct route and offers the least amount of restrictions.
Single wall 24 gauge or thicker pipe is used from the ceiling to the unit and class "A"
insulated pipe is used from the ceiling through the roof. The second method for
installation of a premanufactured system is to go through the wall. Single wall 24
gauge or thicker pipe is used from the wall to the unit and class "A" insulated pipe
through the wall. Whether you choose to go through the ceiling or through the wall,
you must exercise extreme caution in your installation.
You must maintain proper clearances to combustibles in either installation. Your flue
pipe manufacturer furnished a wall thimble or ceiling support box, and when these
are installed properly the correct safety clearances will be met.
If you choose a
premanufactured flue system and you feel you are not qualified or capable of
installing the system, you can consult your local Englander dealer for information or
aqualified contractor caninstallthe system for you. Itisthe customer's responsibility
to insure that the chimney (or flue system) is safe and in good operating condition.
England's Stove Works, Inc. will nto be responsible for an accident contributed to a
unit connected to a faulty chimney or flue system.
