SAFETY NOTICE:  IF YOUR DUTCHWEST CON-
VECTION HEATER IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED, 
OPERATED AND MAINTAINED, A HOUSE FIRE MAY 
RESULT.  FOR SAFETY, FOLLOW ALL INSTALLA-
TION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE DIREC-
TIONS.  CONTACT LOCAL BUILDING OFFICIALS 
ABOUT RESTRICTIONS AND INSTALLATION 
INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS IN YOUR AREA.
Before you begin the installation, review your plans to 
confirm that:
•  Your stove and chimney connector will be far enough 

from combustible material to meet all clearance 
requirements.

•  The floor protector is large enough and is construct-

ed properly to meet all requirements.

•  You have obtained all necessary permits from local 

authorities.

Your local building official is the final authority for ap-
proving your installation as safe and for determining 
that it meets local and state codes.
The metal label permanently attached to the back of 
every Dutchwest stove indicates the stove has been 
tested to current standards. The test standard is 
EN13240:2001 + A2:2004 for Europe. Clearance and 
installation information is printed on the metal label at-
tached to the rear of the stove. Local authorities gen-
erally will accept the label as evidence that, when the 
stove is installed according to the information on the 
label and in this manual, the installation meets codes 
and can be approved.
Codes vary in different areas. Before starting the instal-
lation, review your plans with the local building author-
ity. Your local dealer can provide any additional informa-
tion needed.
IMPORTANT:  FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE IN-
STALLATION INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN A 
DANGEROUS SITUATION, INCLUDING A CHIMNEY 
OR HOUSE FIRE.  FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS 
EXACTLY, AND DO NOT ALLOW MAKESHIFT COM-
PROMISES TO ENDANGER PROPERTY AND PER-
SONAL SAFETY.

Your Dutchwest Convection Heater must be connected 
to a code-approved masonry chimney with a flue liner, 
to a relined masonry chimney that meets local codes, or 
to a prefabricated metal chimney.
Whatever kind you use, the chimney and chimney con-
nector must be in good condition and kept clean.

If you use an existing masonry chimney, it must be 
inspected to ensure safe condition before the stove 
is installed.  Your local professional chimney sweep, 
building inspector, or fire department official will be able 
either to make the inspection or to direct you to some-
one who can.
An inspection of the chimney must confirm that it has 
a lining.  Do not use an unlined chimney.  The chim-
ney should also be examined for cracks, loose mortar, 
other signs of deterioration, and blockage.  Repair any 
defects before the chimney is used with your stove.  

Unused openings in an existing masonry chimney must 
be sealed with masonry to the thickness of the chimney 
wall, and the chimney liner should be repaired.  Open-
ings sealed with pie plates or wallpaper are a hazard 
and should be sealed with mortar or refractory cement.  
In the event of a chimney fire, flames and smoke may 
be forced out of these unused thimbles.

The chimney should be thoroughly cleaned before use.

A newly-built masonry chimney must conform to the 
standards of your local building code or, in the absence 
of a local code, to a recognized national code.  Masonry 
chimneys must be lined, either with code-approved 
masonry or pre-cast refractory tiles, stainless steel 
pipe, or a code-approved, “poured-in-place” liner.  The 
chimney’s clean-out door must seal tightly.

The flue and chimney design must meet requirement 
J2, Part J of the building regulations 2000 (Combustion 
Appliances and Fuel Storage Systems).
