Secure all joints, including attaching the stovepipe to the
Fireplace Insert's flue collar, with three sheet metal
screws. Install #10 x 1/2" (3 mm x 13 mm) sheet metal
screws into the holes pre-drilled in the flue collar.
Leaving off the screws can cause joints to separate from
the vibration that results from a creosote chimney fire.
Long runs of stovepipe to increase heat dispersal are not
recommended. Using longer lengths of stovepipe or more
connecting elbows than necessary increase the chances of
draft resistance and the accumulation of creosote buildup.
Remember, the NFPA has recommended, minimum
clearances for chimney connectors to combustibles such
as walls and ceilings.
installed at safe distances from these combustible
surfaces, it is important to maintain these connector
