manual abstract
The connector furnace pipe and fittings you will need to connect directly to a masonry chimney are shown in figure 11 and 12. If the connector furnace pipe must go through a combustible wall before entering the masonry chimney, consult a qualified mason or chimney dealer. The installation must conform to local building and fire codes and latest edition of NFPA 211. Do not connect this furnace into the same chimney flue as the fireplace, gas appliance, or a flue connected with any other appliance. Fig. 11 - Masonry Chimney Connection continued on next page The chimney used for a furnace must not be used to ventilate the cellar or basement. If there is a clean out in the base of the chimney, close it tightly. ChImNEYFLUE5/8" TILEChImNEYLINERmASONRYChImNEYThImBLECOLLAR6. ROUND24 ga. BLACkCONNECTORSTOvEPIPE8. mIN.

Chimney connections continued … Fig. 13 - Chimney Construction Through Roof WARNING - Risk of Fire: Inspect and clean flues and chimney regularly. Connector Pipe Installation NOTE: Connector pipe is NOT INCLUDED. To purchase, Visit your local hardware, home or building center. See “Locating Furnace” page 6 for additional specifications. 1. The crimped end of the connector pipe fits inside the furnace flue collar. Install additional pipe and elbow with the crimped end towards the furnace. This will allow any condensation in the flue to run back into the firebox. 2. Horizontal pipe runs must slope upwards towards the chimney at least 1/4. per foot of horizontal run. 3. You must have at least 18 inches of clearance between any horizontal piping and the ceiling. 4. Connector pipe cannot extend into the chimney flue (figure 14). 5. Secure pipe/elbow sections with three (3) sheet metal screws at each joint to make the piping rigid. continued on next page CORRECT WRONG WRONG Fig. 14 – Stovepipe/Flue Connections 6. It is recommended that no more than two (2) 90° bends be used in the connector pipe installation. The use of more than two 90° bends may decrease the amount of draft and possibly cause smoke spillage. Where possible, use only corrugated (nonadjustable) elbows. These are much more airtight. 7. The connector pipe must not pass through an attic or roof space, closet, any concealed space, floor, ceiling, wall or combustible construction. (See Chimney Connections, page 10). A UL 103 HT Listed chimney must be used from the first penetration of ceiling or wall to the chimney cap. WARNING: Risk of Fire. Never use single wall connector pipe as a chimney – a house fire could result. 8. The chimney connector may include a section for a barometric draft regulator between the furnace and the chimney (figures 2, 11 & 13). The optional barometric draft regulator must be installed in the same room (same pressure zone) as the furnace. 9. Install the optional barometric draft regulator strictly in accordance with the instructions that are provided with the barometric draft regulator. Barometric Draft Regulator Setting Note: This optional device is NOT included with the furnace. A Barometric Draft Regulator (Vogelzang Model BD-06) is used to overcome excessive draft. 1. Drill a hole in the chimney connector within 18. of the flue collar below the barometric draft regulator just large enough for the tube of the manometer. 2. Build a fire after all chimney connections have been made. 3. Use the manometer to measure the draft in the flue. 4. Adjust the Barometric Draft Regulator to obtain a draft of 0.05. W.C. (0.1 Pa) under stable fire conditions. WARNING: Risk of Fire. Do not operate with flue draft exceeding 0.05. water column (0.1 Pa). 5. After all adjustments have been made, seal the hole made for the manometer tube with furnace cement. Connector Pipe Installation continued… Operating Instructions Fuel(s) This furnace is designed to burn wood or coal fuel only. Coal Fuel Low ash content (2% to 6%) coal is recommended. Purchase “washed” coal in chestnut, egg, furnace, or nut-sizes (1-3/4 to 4 inch diameter) for residential furnaces. Any of the specialty packaged fireplace coals can also be used. (Do not use wax-type coal “bricks”) WARNING: For best results use solid, Bituminous coal. NEVER use manufactured coal “bricks” made of coal dust with wax-type binder. Do Not burn garbage, oil or flammable fluids. Store fuel in dry, well ventilated area. Wood Fuel Hardwood, 18. to 26. should be split and air dried (seasoned) for 6 months to provide proper burning without excessive creosote buildup. Lighting NOTE: On first use build three (3) small fires to “season” cast iron parts and prevent cracking. Allow furnace to cool between firings. 1. Set the thermostat on “HIGH” to provide maximum ...
