For venting directly into a masonry chimney or through a thimble,
the top of the single wall pipe must be at least 18" (46cm) below a
combustible ceiling and must conform to NFPA 211 guidelines and
methods. Please see the diagram to the left.
For rear venting or other unlisted configurations, consult the
local building codes and follow the NFPA 211 guidelines.
If the stovepipe is fitted with a baffle, it must be manually oper-
ated, visibly placed for ease of use, and must not close completely.
Consult your chimney expert if you have any questions.
Important note:
Please ensure that there is easy access to the chimney cleanout
door.

Installation

Precautions and Specifications
Before installation, remember to consult your local building inspec-
tor or fire marshal to determine the need to obtain a permit. Also
enquire about restrictions and installation inspection requirements
in your area.
If utilizing an existing chimney, it is recommended that a profes-
sional mason or stove installer do a complete check-up of the
chimney, liner, and flue beforehand.
In order for the stove to work and draw properly, sufficient air sup-
ply is important. Be especially aware of any mechanical fans (e.g.
kitchen or bathroom exhaust systems) that may affect the proper
draw.
Make sure that the floor and the sub-floor of the room in which
the stove is installed is designed to carry the extra weight of the
stove. The floor protector plate must be made of a non-combus-
tible material.
The floor protection plate must lie under the stove and extend
16" (41cm) (18" (45cm) in Canada) in front of the stove door, 8"
(20cm) beyond the sides of the fuel-loading door, and under the
pipe and 2" (5cm) beyond each side for back venting. In Canada,
an 8" (20cm) floor protection is required beyond the sides of the
stove and in the back of the stove (0" in the back for the US).
When deciding where to install your stove, the heat distribution to
other rooms should be taken into consideration. Put the stove at a
safe distance from combustible materials; see the references at the
name tag of the stove.

Installation with turntable (RAIS Rondo)

If the stove has a turntable then please do the following:
Lift the positioning bolt and turn the stove in 30° intervals. When
the stove is in the desired position, let go of the positioning bolt
and turn the stove lightly until the positioning bolt slips into place.
