CAUTION- The special paints used on your  
heater may give off some smoke while theyare  
curing during the first few fires. Build small fires  
at first.  
CARING FOR PAINTED PARTS- This heater  
has a painted jacket, which is durable but it will  
not stand rough handling or abuse. When  
installing your heater, use care in handling.

Installation  
Place the heater on solid masonry or solid concrete. When  
the heater is used on a combustible floor, use an Underwrit-  
ers Listed floor protector. The floor protector must comply  
with UL Standards (USA) and CAN/ULC (Canada). The  
base should extend at least 16" beyond the door side of the  
heater and should extend under the flue pipe if it is elbowed  
towards a wall. (Fig. 5).

After consulting the installation instructions for mini-  
mum clearances to combustibles, locate your floor  
protector accordingly and carefully place the stove in  
your selected location. Install stove pipe, elbows and  
thimble as necessary, utilizing either a recently  
cleaned and inspected masonry chimney (properly  
lined) or a UL/ULC Listed chimney. Insure that the  
damper provided is installed in the flue collar.  
Again, check the following illustrations and be sure  
you have the clearances shown from the heater and  
the connector pipe to combustible surfaces. If you  
have a solid brick or stone wall behind your heater,  
you may place your heater as close as you wish to the  
wall. However, if the wall is only faced with brick or  
stone, consider it a combustible wall.

MASONRY CHIMNEY  
The masonry chimney must comply with UL/ULC codes. Before  
using an existing masonry chimney, clean the chimney and inspect  
the flue liner to be sure it is safe to use. Make repairs before  
attaching the heater. See Page 3, Item 5. Look at Fig. 5. The  
connector pipe and fittings you will need to connect directly to a  
masonry chimney are shown. If the connector pipe must go  
through a combustible wall before entering the masonry chimney,  
consult a qualified mason or chimney dealer. The installation must  
conform to local fire codes, and NFPA 211(USA) or CAN/CSA-  
B365-M91(CANADA). Do not connect this heater into the same  
chimney flue as the fireplace or flue from another heater. The  
chimney used for a heater must not be used to ventilate the cellar  
or basement. If there is a cleanout opening at the base of the  
chimney, close it tightly.

In addition to the methods shown by A, B, C, and D of Figure 8, a listed factory-built wall pass-through system  
may be purchased and installed according to the instructions packaged with it to provide a safe method of  
passing chimney connector through a combustible wall for a connection to a masonry chimney.  
CONNECTION OF CHIMNEY CONNECTORTO A MASONRY CHIMNEYWHEN CHIMNEY CONNECTOR  
DOES NOT PASSTHROUGH A COMBUSTIBLEWALL  
If the chimney connector does not have to pass through a combustible wall to get to a masonry chimney, simply connect  
the chimney connector directly to the masonry chimney's chimney thimble as described and shown by parts C and D of  
Figure 8. Remember, the chimney connector should extend into the chimney thimble to the innerface of the chimney flue  
but not beyond; if the chimney connector is extended through the chimney thimble into the chimney flue, resistance to the  
flow of smoke and gases up the chimney will occur; that flow resistance will have an adverse affect on the operation and  
performance of the heater and venting system.

Service Hints  
Do not expect a heater to draw. It is the chimney that creates  
the draft. Smoke spillage into the house or excessive buildup  
of water or creosote in the chimney are warnings that the  
chimney is not functioning properly. Correct problem before  
using heater. Possible causes are:  
4. If the chimney is operating too cool, water will condense  
in the chimney and run back into the stove. Creosote  
formation will be rapid and may block the chimney.  
Operate the heater at a high enough fire to keep the  
chimney warm preventing this condensation.  
1. The connector pipe may push into the chimney too far,  
stopping the draft. (Fig. 7)  
5. If the fire burns well but sometimes smokes or burns  
slowly, it may be caused by the chimney top being lower  
thananotherpartofthehouseoranearbytree. Thewind  
blowing over a house or tree, falls on top of the chimney  
like water over a dam, beating down the smoke. The top  
of the chimney should be at least 3 feet above the roof  
and be at least to 2 feet higher than any point of the roof  
within 10 feet (Fig. 6).  
2. Do not connect two heaters into the same chimney flue.  
3. The chimney used for a heater must not be used to  
ventilate the cellar or basement. If there is a cleanout  
opening at the base of the chimney, It must be closed  
tightly.  
Chimney Maintenance  
Creosote - Formation and Need for Removal  
Ifcreosotehasaccumulated, itshouldberemoved. Failureto  
remove creosote may cause a house fire. Creosote may be  
removed by using a chimney brush or other commonly  
available materials.  
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other  
organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to  
form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the rela-  
tively cool chimney flue of a slow burning fire. As a result,  
creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ig-  
nited this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.  
Chimney fires burn very hot. If the chimney connector should  
glow red, immediately call the fire department, then reduce  
thefirebyclosingtheinletaircontrolandpouralargequantity  
of coarse salt, baking soda or cool ashes on top of the fire in  
the firebox. CAUTION: A chimney fire may cause ignition of  
wall studs or rafters which you thought were a safe distance  
from the chimney. If you have a chimney fire, have your  
chimney inspected by a qualified person before using again.  
The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at  
least twice monthly during the heating season to determine  
if a creosote buildup has occurred.
