STEP-BY-STEP

FLUE AND CONNECTOR
INSTALLATION
Note: These are a generic set of flue instal-
lation instructions.
the manufacturers own instructions
explicitly. Verify the Minimum Recom-
mended Heights for Wood fire Flue
(Table 1 in the Installation section).
AS/NZS 2918:2001 installation of solid
fuel burning appliance.
1. With your location already established, cut
and frame the roof hole. It is recommended
that no ceiling joist be cut for flue and support
box installation. If it is necessary to cut them,
the joist must be made structurally sound.
2. Install radiant shield and support from above.
3. Stack the flue pipe onto your finish support
to a minimum height of 1m above the roof
penetration, or 0.6m above any point within
3m measured horizontally. There must be at
least 1m of flue above the roof level.
NOTE: Ensure each section of flue is positively
attached and secured.
Note: Increasing the flue height above this
minimum level will sometimes help
your unit to "breathe" better by allow-
ing a greater draft to be created. This
greater draft can decrease problems
such as, difficult start-ups, back-
smoking when door is open, and dirty
glass. It might be sufficient to initially
try with the minimum required height,
and then if problems do arise add ad-
ditional height at a later date.
4. Slide the roof flashing over your flue and seal
the flashing to the roof with roofing compound.
Secure the flashing to your roof with nails or
screws.
5. Place the storm collar over the flashing, seal-
ing the joints with a silicone caulking.
6. Fasten the raincap to the top of your flue.
8. To complete your flue installation, install the
flue pipe from the stove's flue collar to the flue
support device.
9. If you are using a horizontal connector, the
flue connector should be as high as possible
while still maintaining the 457mm minimum
Always follow
distance from the horizontal connector to the
ceiling.
10. NOTE: Residential Close Clearance and
Alcove installations require a listed double
wall connector from the stove collar to the
ceiling level.
The diagrams below illustrate one way to install
your unit into a standard ceiling or with a horizontal
connector. Check with your dealer or installer for
information on other options available to you.
