  • Page 5 Masonry Chimneys, cont'd. • Unused openings in an existing masonry chimney must be sealed with masonry to the thickness of the chimney wall, and the chimney liner should be repaired. Openings sealed with pie plates or wallpaper are a hazard and should be sealed with mortar or refractory cement.
  • Page 6 Vermont Castings Seville Double-wall Chimney Connectors The Seville is approved for installation in the U.S. and Canada with double-wall chimney connectors that have been tested and listed for use with solid-fuel burning appliances by a recognized testing laboratory. Follow the instructions for assembling and installing double-wall connectors provided by the manufacturer of the double-wall chimney.
  • Page 7 Connection Above the Fireplace In this installation, the chimney connector enters the fireplace flue though a thimble located above the fireplace. (Fig. 6) The liner of the fireplace chimney should extend at least to the point at which the chim- ney connector enters the chimney.
  • Page 8 Vermont Castings Seville • Placing a chimney connector pipe inside a section of 9" (229mm) diameter, solid-insulated, factory-built chimney, with two inches of air space between the chimney section and combustibles. (Fig. 10) Canadian Requirements:In Canada, the Canadian Standards Association has established specific guidelines regarding wall pass-though design.
  • Page 9 Floor Protection A tremendous amount of heat radiates from the bottom plate of your Madison. The floor area directly under and around the stove will require protection from radiant heat as well as from stray sparks or embers that may escape the firebox. Heat protection is provided through the use of a Vermont Castings Bottom Heat Shield #1889.
  • Page 10 Vermont Castings Seville Clearance to Surrounding Combustible Materials When the stove is operating, both the stoveplate and the chimney connector radiate heat in all directions. A safe installation requires that adequate clearance be maintained between the stove and nearby combustible materials to ensure that those materials do not overheat.

  • Page 15 Install the Fan 1. Position the Fan body within the Rear Shroud as shown in Figure 20. The Fan’s upper flange should be located behind the lip of the opening. Secure the Fan to the Shroud using five sheet metal screws and single star washer supplied with the kit.
  • Page 16 Vermont Castings Seville Install the Outside Air Adapter The optional #1882 Outside Air Adapter provides a collar to which a 3” (76mm) diameter air duct may be attached directly to the air inlet area at the back of the stove. Step 1.
  • Page 17: Operation

    How the Seville Works Combustion control is achieved in the Seville through two separate air delivery systems. The primary air control lever, located at the left rear corner of the stove, controls the amount of incoming primary air for starting, maintaining and reviving the fire.
  • Page 18 Vermont Castings Seville In newer homes that are well-insulated and weather- tight, poor draft may result from insufficient air in the house. In such cases, a slightly opened window near the stove on the windward side of the house will provide the fresh air needed.
  • Page 19 The Primary Air Inlet must be open when starting a fire or when refueling. Step 1. Open the primary air control fully. (Lever at 7:00) Step 2. Place several sheets of crumpled newspaper in the stove. Avoid using glossy or colored paper, as these burn poorly.
  • Page 20 Vermont Castings Seville Refuel While the Embers Are Still Hot Reload the Seville while it is still hot and there are plenty of glowing embers to rekindle the fire. Include some smaller pieces of wood in the new load of fuel to help the stove return to its operating temperature quickly.
  • Page 21: Maintenance

    Let the fire in the stove go out and allow the stove to cool completely before beginning any maintenance procedure. Care of the Cast Iron Surface An occasional dusting with a dry rag will keep the painted cast iron of your Seville looking new. The stove’s paint can be touched up as needed.
  • Page 22 Vermont Castings Seville Step 7. Press the gasketed part firmly against its normal mating surface to seat the gasket evenly in its channel. Close and latch the door to do this; close the door on a piece of waxed paper to keep the cement from migrating onto the non-gasketed part, or mask other parts Step 8.
  • Page 23: Appendix - Draft Management

    Annual Maintenance Perform a thorough cleaning, inspection and repair each Spring, at the end of the heating season. • Thoroughly clean the chimney and chimney connec- tor. • Inspect the chimney for damage and deterioration. Replace weak sections of prefabricated chimney. Have a mason make repairs to a masonry chimney.
  • Page 24 Vermont Castings Seville Steel Chimney Most factory-made ‘Class A’ steel chimneys have a layer of insulation around the inner flue. This insulation keeps the smoke warm and protects the surrounding structure from the high flue temperatures. Because the insulation is less dense than masonry, the inner steel liner warms up more quickly than a masonry chimney.
  • Page 25 You can judge the moisture content of wood by its appearance and weight or use a commercially avail- able moisture meter for an exact measurement. Unseasoned wood will be a third heavier than dry wood. Also, look for cracks (‘checking’) in the ends of the log that result from contraction as the wood dries.
