INSTALLATION : EXHAUST FLUE INSTALLATION
Depending on the fuel used and frequency of firing, the volume of initial smoke coming from a horizontal sidewall flue may be a nuisance. If windows or doors are in or near the smoke path, a vertical flue must be used. Some staining of siding materials will occur.
MAINTAIN A CLEAN AREA FREE OF ANY COMBUSTIBLE DEBRIS SUCH AS LEAVES, TREES, PLANTS, GRASSES, PAPER, WOOD, TIRES, OIL, ETC FOR A MINIMUM DISTANCE APPROXIMATED BY A CIRCLE WITH A RADIUS OF AT LEAST 20’ CENTERED ON THE FLUE ELBOW DISCHARGE. ANY ACCUMULATED ASH AND CREOSOTE ON THE METAL CONTAINER SHOULD BE REMOVED PERIODICALLY TO MINIMIZE THE POTENTIAL OF A CREOSOTE FIRE.
EXTERNAL VERTICAL FLUE USING AN EXTERIOR TEE
If the GARN® unit has a horizontal flue connection, but a vertical flue is required or desired , mount the vertical flue on the exterior of the building. Installation will require the use of the following additional double-wall DuraTech® UL-103 HT (US) or ULC-S629 (Canada) Class A 2100°F stainless steel flue components:
Tee with bottom clean out cap Adjustable tee support bracket
•
•
Wall thimble
•
Adjustable wall supports
•
DO NOT INSTALL AN EXTERNAL VERTICAL FLUE CONFIGURATION INSIDE OF A BUILDING OR A HAZARDOUS CONDITION MAY RESULT. EPA BEST BURN PRACTICE RECOMMENDS A
VERTICAL FLUE FOR ALL WOOD FIRED APPLIANCES.
