e) Installation through side of masonry chimney

(Refer to figure 16)
1. Position the stove, adhering to the clearances in Figures 1 & 2. Mark the center of the hole where the pipe is
to pierce the masonry chimney.
2. It will be necessary to break out the masonry around the location of the pipe center mark. Use a 5-inch
diameter hole for 4-inch pipe.
3. Measure and build chimney top plate. Cut out holes for chimney and the outside air pipe.
4. Install the tee on the bottom of the vertical pipe system and lower it down the chimney until the center
branch of the tee is level with the center of the hole in the masonry, as shown in Figure 16.
5. Install and seal the top plate from step 3 with non-hardening mastic. Slip the storm collar over the pipe, and
while holding the pipe at the proper elevation, affix the collar with a minimum of three ¼" stainless steel
sheet metal screws. Seal all joints and seams around the collar.
6. Connect the horizontal pipe by pushing it through the hole in the masonry and lining it up with the branch in
the tee. Push the pipe into the tee while twisting it to lock it into the tee.
7. If desired, once the horizontal pipe is in place, the space between the pipe and masonry may be filled with
high-temperature grout.
Install the trim collar. An adjustable pipe length and adapter may be needed to finish the connection to the
stove.
