Venting Components and
Configuration

Components of a Venting System

The complete venting system consists of several
components: chimney connector, wall thimble, wall pass-
through, chimney, and liner. It is absolutely necessary
that you install all of these components within the
clearances to combustibles discussed
earlier to install your stove safely.
To protect against the possibility of a house fire,
you must properly install and constantly
maintain the venting system. Upon inspection,
immediately replace rusted, cracked, or broken
components.
The chimney connector is the stovepipe
from the wood stove to the chimney. Install
it into the stainless steel oval-to-round
connector (mounted on the flue collar) on
the wood stove and connect it to an
approved chimney. The chimney connector
stovepipe must be a 6 (152 mm) diameter,
24 MSG or 25 MSG blued steel connector
pipe. Do not use aluminum or galvanized
steel pipe—they cannot withstand the
extreme temperatures of a wood fire.
A wall thimble is a manufactured (or site-
constructed) device installed in combustible
walls through which the chimney connector
passes to the chimney. It keeps walls from
igniting. You must use a wall thimble when
installing a chimney connector through a
combustible wall to the chimney.
A wall pass-through (or chimney support
package) also keeps walls from igniting.
You must use one when connecting through
a wall or ceiling to a prefabricated chimney.
Only install this stove to a lined masonry chimney
or an approved high temperature prefabricated
residential type building heating appliance
chimney. Do not connect this stove to a chimney
flue serving another appliance; you will
compromise the safe operation of both the wood
stove and the connected appliance.
WARNING:
DO NOT CONNECT THE STOVE TO ANY AIR
DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.

A liner is the UL 1777or ULC S635 (for factory built
fireplace or masonry) chimney. It connects the
stainless steel oval-to-round adapter to the chimney
rain cap.
You must connect your stove to a chimney or liner
comparable to those recommended in this manual. Do not
use stovepipe as a chimney. Use stovepipe for
freestanding installations only to connect the stove to a
proper chimney.
