goes into the fireplace chimney. The liner of the
fireplace chimney should extend at least to the point at
which the chimney connector enters the chimney.
Follow all the guidelines for installing a chimney
connector into a freestanding masonry chimney, and
pay special attention to these additional points:
Double check the connector clearance from
-
the ceiling: 18" (45 cm) minimum.
The fireplace damper or register plate must be
-
closed and sealed to prevent room air from
being drawn up the flue, thereby reducing the
draft.
However, it must be possible to re-open the
damper or have an access plate in a register
plate to inspect the chimney.
2.4. Wall Pass-Throughs
Whenever possible, design your installation so that the
wall connector does not pass through a combustible
wall. If you are considering a wall pass-through in your
installation, check with your building inspector before
you begin. Also check with the chimney connector
manufacturer for any specific requirements.
Accessories are available for use as wall pass-throughs.
If using one of these, make sure it has been tested and
listed for use as a wall pass-through. We recommend
the following guidelines when passing chimney
connectors through combustible walls:
- Cut away all combustible material in the wall a
sufficient distance from the single wall connector,
to provide the required 12" (300 mm) clearance for
the connector. Any material used to close the
opening must be non-combustible (as in Fig. 5
below).
- Using a section of double-wall chimney with a 9"
(230 mm) clearance to combustibles.
- Placing a chimney connector pipe inside a
ventilated sleeve, which is then separated from
combustibles by 6" (150 mm) of fiberglass insulating
material.

3. USE
Once your stove has been installed and connected to
the chimney, you are ready to light the fire.
Before lighting your stove for the first time, please take
time to become familiar with the different control
systems and parts of the unit, how to choose the wood,
how to light it and use it on a daily basis.
Ensure that the ash pan is empty.
ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND that the stove generates heat
and, therefore, keep children, clothing, furniture... at a
distance to prevent burns from direct contact with the
appliance.
Below, we have included some advice on your stove and
on its use. Please read with care.
3.1. THE WOODBOX® COMBUSTION SYSTEM
The Woodbox® system uses a balance of preheated
primary air, secondary air and natural flue draft in a
process of combustion and post-combustion, to obtain
extremely high efficiency and total controllability of the
fire.
The Woodbox® stoves, are equipped with a variable flap
mechanism to control the air intake with precision,
according to the type of combustion and the desired
tempo of the fire. The controls allow you to open these
flaps manually. An optional remote control kit allows
you to open and close these flaps automatically.
