CONNECTOR pIpE INSTAllATION
1. The crimped end of the stovepipe fits inside
the stove flue collar. Install additional pipe and
elbow with the crimped end towards the stove.
This will allow any condensation in the flue to
run back into the firebox.
2. Horizontal pipe runs must slope upwards
towards the chimney at least 1/4" per foot of
horizontal run.
3. You must have at least 18 inches of clearance
between any horizontal piping and the ceil-
ing.
4. The pipe cannot extend into the chimney flue
(figure 7).
5. Secure pipe/elbow sections with three (3) sheet
metal screws at each joint to make the piping
rigid.
6. It is recommended that no more than two (2)
90° bends be used in the stovepipe installa-
tion. The use of more than two 90° bends may

decrease the amount of draw and possibly
cause smoke spillage. Where possible, use only
corrugated (nonadjustable) elbows. These
are much more airtight.
7. The connector pipe must not pass through an
attic, roof space, trusses, closet, or any con-
cealed space, floor, ceiling, wall or combus-
tible construction. (See Chimney Connector
Systems & Clearances, page 17). A UL 103
HT Listed chimney must be used from the first
penetration of ceiling or wall to the chimney
cap. Never use single wall connector pipe as
a chimney – a house fire could result!
NOTE: STOVE PIPE IS NOT INClUDED. TO

wARE, HOmE OR BUILDING CENTER. SEE
