CHIMNEY SPECIFICATIONS
This appliance must be connected to a listed Stainless
Steel Liner, that meets UL1777, which extends from the
collartothechimneycapaccordingtothespecications
listed on the previous pages.
Chimneys perform two functions:
1. Asameansofexhaustingsmokeanduegaseswhich
are the result of fuel combustion.
2. The chimney provides “draft,” which allows oxygen to
be continuously introduced into the appliance, so that
proper combustion is possible. This stove relies on
natural draft to operate.
NOTICE: Always provide a source of fresh air into the
room where the stove is located. Failure to do so may
result in air starvation of other fuel burning appliances and

at stove stores and are economical to rent or purchase.)
Factors such as wind, barometric pressure, trees, terrain
and chimney temperature can have an adverse effect on
the draft. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible
for external factors leading to less than optimal drafting.
Should you have a problem with inadequate draft, you
should contact a licensed heating and cooling contractor
for assistance in solving the problem.
