MANUFACTURED CHIMNEY
Refer to chimney and chimney connector maker’s
instructions for installation and use. Use only a 6˝
diameter manufactured chimney system listed to UL 103
HT. Chimney made to this listing is High Temperature
rated to 2100 degrees Fahrenheit. Use chimney from only
one manufacturer. Never mix brands. Carefully follow
the chimney manufacturer’s stated requirements and
clearances. Use the chimney manufacturer’s attic guards,
roof supports, ashing and re stops when passing through
a ceiling. Use a listed thimble when passing through a
combustible wall. Do not use makeshift compromises
during installation.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE SINGLE WALL CONNECTOR PIPE AS A
CHIMNEY - A HOUSE FIRE COULD RESULT.
When using a pre-existing chimney, have it’s condition
and installation inspected before using. Make sure that
the chimney meets all of the UL rating requirements
listed above. Be aware that not all manufactured chimney
is of the UL 103 HT type. NOTE: It is recommended that
you contact a licensed heating and cooling contractor
(consult your local yellow pages) for chimney installation.
Manufactured chimney with the proper required UL listing
is available from most home centers, hardware stores, and
HVAC supply stores. If you have access to the internet, you
may wish to view chimney manufacturers’ information on-
line.

VENTING TO EXISTING FIREPLACE
In some instances, people desire to convert an existing
replace for stove use. Usually, safe connection to an
existing masonry chimney requires more work than using
a prefabricated chimney. The existing replace must be
closed and sealed at the damper with high temperature
caulk, ceramic wool, or furnace cement. Prior to
installation, clean and inspect the existing ue and smoke
shelf. Installation should be designed so the system
can be dismantled for periodic cleaning and inspection.
Before conversion, make sure the existing chimney is
structurally sound, the chimney incorporates a ue liner
and make sure it is in good condition (A ue liner consists
of clay tile that protects the brickwork of a chimney. If a
chimney does not have a liner, or it is damaged, have it
relined by a professional. DO NOT USE a chimney that is
unlined or damaged!) If you have any question regarding
the condition of the chimney, consult a qualied licensed
contractor, qualied engineer, competent mason, certied
Chimney Sweep, or a knowledgeable inspector. Consult
your insurance company if you cannot nd a qualied
expert.
CAUTION:
NOT ALL FIREPLACE CHIMNEYS ARE SUITABLE FOR
CONVERSION TO ACCOMMODATE CONNECTION TO A
COAL STOVE. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED EXPERT.
