8.6.1 Installation of Single Wall Chimney Connector
The chimney connector assembly has been called 'the weak link' in the safety of wood heating
systems because failure to install the connector properly (which has been common in the past) can
result in house fires.
The best flue pipe assembly is one that rises straight up from the stove to the base of the chimney
with no elbows. Straight assemblies are less likely to cause problems like smoke roll-out when the
door is opened for loading. They are also more stable and easier to maintain than assemblies with
elbows. Horizontal runs of flue pipe should be avoided where possible because they reduce
chimney draft.
Use 45° elbows where possible, instead of 90° elbows.
