F3500 Wood Stove | 7
Horizontal Installation
Standard Ceiling Installation
7. To complete your chimney installation, install
the single wall or double wall connector pipe
from the stove’s ue collar to the chimney
support device.
NOTE: When attaching the chimney to the
appliance, ensure a minimum of two (2) screws
are used to establish a snug t.
8. If you are using a horizontal connector,
the chimney connector should be as high
as possible while still maintaining the 18"
(457mm) minimum distance from the
horizontal connector to the ceiling.
NOTE: Residential Close Clearance and
Alcove installations require a listed
double wall connector from the stove
collar to the ceiling level.
The diagrams below illustrate one way to install
your unit into a standard ceiling or with a horizontal
connector. Check with your dealer or installer for
information on other options available to you.
STEP-BY-STEP
CHIMNEY AND
CONNECTOR
INSTALLATION
Note: These are a generic set of chimney
installation instructions. Always
follow the manufacturers own
instructions explicitly. Verify the
Minimum Recommended Heights
for Woodstove Flue (Table 1 in the
Installation section).
1. With your location already established, cut
and frame the roof hole. It is recommended
that no ceiling support member be cut for
chimney and support box installation. If it is
necessary to cut them, the members must be
made structurally sound.
2. Install radiant shield and support from above.
3. Stack the insulated pipe onto your nish
support to a minimum height of 3 feet above
the roof penetration, or 2 feet above any point
within 10 feet measured horizontally. There
must be at least 3 feet of chimney above the
roof level.
NOTE: Ensure each section of chimney is positively
attached and secured.
Note: Increasing the chimney height above
this minimum level will sometimes
help your unit to “breathe” better
by allowing a greater draft to be
created. This greater draft can
decrease problems such as, dicult
start-ups, back-smoking when door
is open, and dirty glass. It might be
sucient to initially try with the
minimum required height, and then
if problems do arise add additional
height at a later date.
4. Slide the roof ashing over your chimney
and seal the ashing to the roof with roong
compound. Secure the ashing to your roof
with nails or screws.
5. Place the storm collar over the ashing, sealing
the joints with a silicone caulking.
6. Fasten the raincap with spark screens (if
required) to the top of your chimney.
