CHIMNEY

The Ashling is a radiant room heater and must be
connected to a chimney of the proper size and
type capable of providing an adequate continuous
draught of 0.04" wg - 0.06" wg. A 6" diameter
Factory Built Chimney is ideal. Connection to a
larger size may result in somewhat less draught.
DO NOT CONNECT TO A CHIMNEY SERVING
ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
Minimum chimney height is 15 feet from floor on
which stove is installed.
chimney should be inspected and, if necessary,
repaired by a competent mason or relined using an
approved relining system. The stove must be con-
nected to a chimney with a continuous draught of
0.04" wg - 0.06"wg. Poor draught conditions will
result in poor performance.
Excessive draught can cause overfiring. If any
components start to glow red, the stove is operat-
ing in an overfiring condition and the primary air
needs to be reduced to eliminate the overfiring as
overfiring voids the warranty. Warped components
are indicative of overfiring and will not be covered
under warranty.
The use of a surface mounted thermometer is
recommended to monitor the hotplate centre tem-
perature. If the hotplate exceeds 900
is overfiring.
Note: The fitting of a flue damper can help reduce
the draught in chimneys with excessive draught.

CHIMNEY TYPES: USA ONLY

The stove must be connected to a UL 103 Listed
HT Type Factory Built Chimney for Residential
Type and Building Heating Appliances, installed in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions or
a masonry chimney constructed in accordance
with NFPA 211 Chimney Vents and Solid Fuel
Burning Appliances.

CHIMNEY TYPES: CANADA ONLY

The stove must be connected to an Underwriters
Laboratories of Canada Labelled factory built
o
650
C chimney, installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions or to a lined masonry
chimney acceptable to the authority having juris-
diction.

CHIMNEY CONNECTOR

The chimney connector (smoke pipe) is used to
connect the Ashling Stove to the chimney
described above. The chimney connector must be
made of Corrosion Resistant Steel, 24 gauge or
heavier (black or equivalently treated steel). Be
sure to fasten the chimney connectors together
and also to the flue outlet of the stove through the
two holes provided. Use at least two screws for
each joint/connection. Be sure that the joints are
tight and fully sealed.
A chimney connector shall not pass through an
attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed
space, floor or ceiling.
Where passage through a wall or partition of com-
bustible construction is desired, the installation
shall conform to NFPA 211 or CAN/CSA - B365.
The connector should maintain a pitch or rise of at
1 /4
least
" per foot from the stove to the chimney. It
should be installed so as to avoid sharp turns or
other combustion features that would create
excessive resistance to the flow of flue gases. It
should be securely supported. The entire length of
a connector should be readily accessible for
inspection, cleaning and replacement.

CONNECTING TO MASONRY CHIMNEY

The connector may pass through walls or parti-
tions constructed of combustible material to a
masonry chimney provided the connector system
selected is installed in accordance with the proper
clearances and conditions. The thimble (breach
pipe) must extend to, but not beyond the inner face
of the masonry chimney liner and be firmly
cemented in place. A fire clay liner (ASTM C315
or equivalent) or stainless steel, at least 24 gauge
may be used.
The following methods may be employed:
Method 1:
1 /2
Minimum 3
" (90mm) thick brick masonry wall
framed into combustible wall with a min. of 12"
(300mm) brick separation from clay liner to com-
bustibles.
Method 2:
Solid insulated Listed factory-built chimney length
of the same inside diameter as the chimney con-
nector and having 1" (25mm) or more of insulation
with a min. 9" (228mm) air space between the
outer wall of the chimney length and combustibles.
The inner end of the chimney length shall be flush
