The complete venting system consists of
several components: chimney connector, wall
thimble, wall pass-through, chimney, and liner.
It is absolutely necessary that if you install all of
these components, they must remain 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.

woodstove to the chimney.

A thimble is a manufactured (or site-constructed)
device installed in combustible walls through
which the chimney connector passes to the
chimney. It keeps the 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 the 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 serving another appliance; you will
compromise the safe operation of both the wood
cook stove and the connected appliance.
