Classic With Blower Installation and Operation Manual

Use 45 degree elbows where possible, instead of 90 degree elbows.

The rules below are based on those found in the CSA B365 installation code. Please

carefully follow these installation instruction rules, or those enforced where you live.

• Maximum overall length of straight pipe: 3 m (10 ft.) including elbows.

• Minimum clearance from combustible material: 450 mm (18 in.). The minimum

clearance may be reduced by 50 percent to 225 mm (9 in.) if suitable shielding is

installed either on the pipe or on the combustible surface.

• The assembly should be as short and direct as possible between the stove and

chimney. The use of two 45 degree elbows is often preferable to a single 90 degree

elbow because less turbulence is created in the exhaust flow and they result in less

horizontal run.

• Maximum number of 90-degree elbows: 2.

• Maximum unsupported horizontal length: 1 m (3 feet).

• Galvanized flue pipes must not be used because the coatings vaporize at high

temperatures and release dangerous gases. Use black painted flue pipes.

• Flue pipes must be at least 24 gauge in thickness.
