In general, you do not need to install a stovepipe

damper with the Invicta series. Some installations,

however, could benefit from a stovepipe damper, such

as a tall chimney which can create a higher than

normal draft. In such cases, a damper can help

regulate the draft. The Invicta series requires a draft

between 0.06" and 0.1" WC. For drafts above 0.1"

WC, install a stovepipe damper. Check the draft at

stove installation time.

Remember, the NFPA recommends minimum

clearances for chimney connectors to combustibles

such as walls and ceilings. Once the stove is installed

at safe distances from these combustible surfaces, it

is also important to maintain these connector

clearances for the remainder of the installation.

CONNECTING THE STOVE TO A CHIMNEY

You can install your Invicta to a prefabricated metal

chimney, or to a masonry chimney.

This room heater must be connected to (1) a listed

Type HT (2100° F) chimney per UL 103 or ULC S629,

or (2) a code-approved masonry chimney with a flue

liner. The chimney size should not be less than the

flue collar, or more than three times greater than the

cross-sectional area of the flue collar.

We recommend installing a cleanout tee where

possible to simplify chimney cleaning and

maintenance.

Connecting to a Prefabricated Metal Chimney

There are two ways to install a prefabricated metal

chimney:

• An interior installation where the chimney passes

inside the residence through the ceiling and roof.

• An exterior installation where the chimney passes

through the wall behind the stove then up the

outside of the residence.

Whenever possible, choose an interior chimney. An

interior chimney heats up quickly and retains its heat;

thus promotes a better draft and discourages the

formation of creosote. An exterior chimney does not

benefit from the warmth of the building, so it typically

operates at lower flue temperatures than an interior

chimney and may experience increased creosote

accumulation.

When connecting the Invicta to a prefabricated metal

chimney, you must follow, precisely, the

manufacturer's installation instructions. Use only Type

HT (2100° F), prefabricated metal chimneys listed per

UL 103 or ULC S629 standards.

Ensure the size of the prefabricated chimney’s flue is

appropriate for the Invicta stove. This Invicta series

requires a 7" (178 mm) inside diameter flue for new

installations. A 7” diameter flue provides adequate

draft and performance. You can use an 8" (203 mm)

diameter existing flue with a reducer. An oversized

flue contributes to creosote accumulation. (In this

case, bigger is NOT better.)

When purchasing a prefabricated chimney to install

with your stove, ensure you also purchase from the

same manufacturer the wall pass-through (or ceiling

support package), "T" section package, fire-stops

(when needed), insulation shield, roof flashing,

chimney cap, and any other required accessories.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when installing

the chimney and accessories. In addition, ensure you

maintain all manufacturers’ recommendations for the

proper clearances to the chimney.

Connection to a Masonry Chimney

Consider two primary elements when connecting your

stove to a masonry chimney: the chimney itself and

the thimble where the stovepipe connects to the

chimney. Use only code approved masonry

chimneys containing a proper flue liner.

Before connecting to a masonry chimney, hire a

professional to examine the chimney for cracks, loose

mortar, and other signs of deterioration and blockage.

If the chimney needs repair, complete them before

installing and using your stove. Do not install your

stove until the chimney is safe for use.

Ensure the chimney’s cleanout is complete and

working properly. To avoid a loss of draft, the cleanout

door must close completely and provide a tight seal. If

the cleanout door leaks, the chimney will cool, your

stove will perform poorly, and creosote can form.

Ensure the size of the chimney’s flue is appropriate for

this stove and that it is not too large. Use a masonry

chimney with a maximum 7” Diameter or 8" x 8" (203

mm x 203 mm) tile size for best results. An oversized

flue contributes to the accumulation of creosote.

Use the following checklist to ensure that your

masonry chimney meets these minimum

requirements:

MASONRY CHIMNEY WALL CONSTRUCTION :

• Mortared brick or modular block at least 4" (102

mm) thick – must use liner
