B. Floor Protection
This stove may be installed on a hard
combustible surface such as a wood floor,
and it may also be installed on non-
combustible surfaces such as brick, marble
or slate. Floor protection will be required if
this unit is placed on a combustible material
other than wood.
SECTION IV: FREESTANDING
HOOK-UP
A. Chimney Connector
The chimney connector must be four inch
(4”) diameter single wall pipe or Type B-1
Vent Pipe. If a single wall pipe is selected as
a chimney connector, it should only be used
between the stove and the ceiling or the
stove and the wall. A single wall pipe must be
terminated at the ceiling or wall and changed
to type B-1 pipe and used with the proper
wall or ceiling pass-through kits.
Do not use aluminum or galvanized steel
pipe, as neither is designed for use with your
gas heater. Never use single wall pipe as a
chimney; you must connect your stove to a
chimney comparable to those listed earlier in
this manual.
Appropriate Clearances for
Vented Gas Unit Installation
The flue connector pipe must be installed
on the stove so it goes outside the flue collar. In
other words, after the chimney connector pipe is
installed, the pipe will completely cover the flue
collar. The pipe will be marked with arrows, and
all pipe should be installed with these pointing up or away from the unit. These are called
“direction of flow markings” and should be oriented properly. (See Installation Drawings at the
end of this Manual.)
B. Thermostat
Your stove comes supplied with a wall thermostat that controls the temperature of the unit and
room. This thermostat is compatible with the low voltage electrical system (0.75 volt or 750
millivolts) of your stove. If you decide not to use the thermostat supplied with the stove, be sure to
use one that is compatible with the operation of a “millivolt” system.
When planning your stove location, be sure to consider the thermostat. The thermostat
should not be located more than twenty feet (20’) from the stove and should be at a height of at
least five feet (5’) above the floor. It is recommended that insulated 18-gauge wire be used to
achieve optimal performance (ten feet of wire is furnished with the thermostat). If the thermostat
has to be placed farther away from the stove, it is recommended that a larger gauge wire be
used. It is a good idea to leave some extra wire behind the stove so the unit can be moved out for
cleaning.
Mount the thermostat level for proper operation, and follow the manufacturer’s directions
for installing this part.
