C) INSTALLATION INTO MASONRY FLUE
1. Masonry flues for use with solid fuel appliances must
meet the NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION
ASSOCIATIONS CODE 211 specifications.
2. Connection to the masonry flue is made with a
masonry or terra-cotta type thimble cemented firmly in
place.
3. Material around the thimble connection must provide
adequate protection from the fire. Use either 24" of
solid masonry or an approved insulated connector.
4. The stove pipe should be inserted far enough into the
thimble to assure good connection, but must not extend
past the flue lining.
5. Do not use more than one elbow in the stove pipe.
6. Recheck all clearances.

D) INSTALLATION INTO A FACTORY BUILT
CHIMNEY
1. After the stove is positioned, suspend a plumb bob
over the center of the damper opening to determine the
chimney penetration point.
2. All Appalachian Stoves must be connected ONLY to a
UL listed class "HT" all fuel burning heating appliance
chimney. CAUTION: SOME CHIMNEYS ARE
AVAILABLE WITH UL LISTING WHICH ARE NOT
CLASS "HT," AND ARE NOT SAFE WITH A SOLID
FUEL APPLIANCE.
3. Install the chimney following the manufacturer's
instructions exactly. DO NOT DEVIATE FROM THESE
INSTRUCTIONS!
4. The chimney should extend a minimum of 3 feet from
the roof structure or 2 feet higher than the highest point
within 10 feet, whichever is greater. This assures proper
chimney function and reduces the possibility of
backdrafts.
NOTE: All installations must meet local building and
fire codes. Check with your local building officials for
assistance in getting permits, inspections, and good
advice.
NOTE: Use of aluminum type B gas vent for solid fuels
is unsafe and prohibited by the National Fire Protection
Association Code.
