USE DRY FIREWOOD

The main flue, cowl and funnel are made of
high grade stainless steel. The outer flue and the
flashing are made of zinc-alum or galvanized. The
main and outer flue sections must be fastened
together with stainless steel screws or rivets; use
three rivets/screws at each join on both the main
and outer flue.
IMPORTANT: The main flue pipe unions must be
done in such a way that the upper section(s) fits
inside the lower one(s). The outer flue section(s)
should be done inversely, with the lower section
inside the upper.

You must thoroughly waterproof
the flashing where it meets the
roof sheeting and where the
outer flue goes through the
flashing. Consult your hardware
or
specialist
waterproofing
company for the most suitable
products and techniques.
If the outer flue extends
more than one meter
above the roof, or if the
area is windy, use tension
wires to fasten the outer
flue to the roof

The cowl, funnel and the
upper edge of the main flue
must be screwed or riveted
to one another (provided
on inside cover of box). The
funnel must be free from the
outer flue to allow for thermal
expansion. This union must
not be screwed/riveted.

USEFUL HINTS

DOWN DRAFT: If wind collides with an obstacle, there will be turbulence that can
cause smoke to blow back down the flue (down draft). To correct this situation,
increase the length of the flue so that it projects over the turbulence area.
STAIRCASE: If the fireplace is positioned near a staircase, the heat will flow towards
the upper levels and will not sufficiently heat the lower level. This can be corrected
by fixing a lintel above the staircase, thereby distributing hot air around the lower
level ceiling.
