7 1. Planning Your Installation 1.1 Questions to Ask Local Building Officials A correct installation is critical and imperative for reducing fire hazards and perilous conditions that can arise when wood burning appliances are improperly installed. The installer must follow all of the manufacture’s instructions. The installation of a wood burning appliance must conform to local codes and applicable state and federal requirements. Familiarity with these requirements before installation is

8 1.4 Clearance from Combustible Walls WARNING: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU OBSERVE THE MINIMUM CLEARANCES. There are listed clearances for your stove which were determined in a laboratory test, using various “classes” of stove pipe or chimney. Minimums are first established for the stove itself and then increased, based on how much heat is transferred by each class of pipe. Residential Standard (not approved for manufactured [mobile] homes) Using single wall pipe connector to

9 1.5 Floor Protection This appliance requires a non-combustible floor protection to protect against burning embers. If the floor is to be stone, tile, brick, etc., it must be mortared or grouted to form a continuous, non-combustible surface. If a chimney connector extends horizontally over the floor, protection must cover the floor under the connector and at least 2” (51 mm) to either side. The floor protection must extend completely beneath the woodstove and to the front, sides, and rea

Indirect method: for an appliance not certified for direct connection of outside combustion air, the outside air is ducted to a point no closer than (12 in.) 300 mm from the appliance to avoid an adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. 3. A mechanical ventilation system: if the house has ventilation system (air exchange or heat recovery): a. The ventilation system may be able to provide sufficient combustion make-up air for the solid-fuel-fired appli- ance. b. The house

11 2.3 Types of Chimneys The chimney is a vital part of your woodstove installation. A properly built masonry chimney or a properly installed, fac- tory built chimney will provide a consistent draft under a variety of weather conditions (a smoking woodstove is usually caused by a chimney problem). The minimum stove flue size is 6 inches (152 mm) in diameter, which is approximately 28 square inches (711 square mm). The maximum flue size should be no more than three times the cross sectional

12 Vapor Barrier At Chimney Penetration Install all venting components according to the vent manufacturer’s installation instructions. Ensure that there is an effec- tive vapor barrier at the location where the chimney penetrates the exterior of the structure. This can be accomplished by applying a non-hardening, waterproof sealant to the following components: ? Around the chimney at the point where the storm collar will meet the chimney, just above the flashing. ? Along the vertical seam

The clay liner must conform to ASTM C315 (Standard Specification for Clay Fire Linings) or its equivalent. Keep a minimum of 12” (305 mm) of brick masonry between the clay liner und wall combustibles. The clay liner shall run from the brick

18 3.5 Acceptable Fuel Acceptable fuel sources are pieces of wood with a length of 30 cm (12”) and a diameter of 10 cm (4”), as well as wood briquettes. Only air-dried wood should be used. The burning of waste materials, in particular synthetic materials, is not permit- ted, according to federal laws regulating emissions. In addition, this causes damage to the fireplace and chimney. Air- dried wood will achieve a maximum water content of 30% after at least 1 year (soft woods) and/or 2 yea

19 5. Fresh Air Supply The woodstove can only be installed in rooms with a sufficient supply of fresh air intake for combustion purposes. This is true of rooms that have at least one exterior door or one window that can be opened. Rooms that are connected to the same fresh air network, i.e. rooms within the same residence or common areas, are also appropriate for installation. The woodstove requires approx. 40m³ fresh air per hour for combustion. With newer, well-insulated house
