THROUGH-THE-WALL
INSTALLATIONS
Step 1. Determine location for CAS Wall
Thimble. The CAS Wall Thimble should be
located near the stove to keep the connector
pipe to a reasonable length.
Step 2. Install CAS Wall Thimble. Cut and
frame an opening in the wall for the CAS
Wall Thimble. Refer to Table 1 for framing
dimensions. Install the black-painted inside
portion of the CAS Wall Thimble into the
framed opening. Secure the CAS Wall Thimble
with (4) 1-1/2" wood screws through the holes
on the face of the Thimble. Install the outside
portion of the CAS Wall Thimble by sliding
the radiation tube into the tube of the inside
portion of the Wall Thimble (Fig 11). Important:
the Wall Thimble must have a continuous tube
through the wall for a safe installation. The
CAS Wall Thimble can accommodate walls
up to 12" thick. If the wall is too thick for the
two halves of the CAS Wall Thimble to reach
each other, a field-fabricated tube of 26-gauge
galvanized steel (or better) must be made to
bridge the gap between the two halves. Slide

the field-fabricated tube over the inner portion
of the Wall Thimble and then slide the outer
portion of the Wall Thimble into the field-
fabricated tube to complete the continuous
tube through the wall. Make sure the air-inlet
openings of the Wall Thimble's outside portion
are facing downward. Secure the outside
portion of the Wall Thimble to the wall with (4)
2-1/2" wood screws. Seal the perimeter of the
CAS Wall Thimble where it meets the wall with
a non-hardening sealant to provide a weather-
resistant seal.
Step 3. Connect CAS Connector Pipe. Refer
to Step 3 of the Vertical Installation. Use 45- or
90-degree elbows as needed.
Step 4. Connect to air inlet of stove. Refer to
Step 4 of the Vertical Installation.
Step 5. Install the chimney branch through
the wall. A horizontal section of chimney is
needed to go through the wall and twist lock
into the CAS Wall Thimble. Depending on
your wall thickness, use a section of chimney
that will reach from the Wall Thimble to the
outside. Connect the chimney Tee to the
horizontal chimney section (Fig 11). Support
