the stove and chimney.  Using connectors and chim-
neys from the same manufacturer makes the assembly 
and installation straightforward.
NOTE:  For installations using double-wall con-
nectors, minimum clearances must conform to the 
listed clearances in the clearance chart on Page 9.
Single-wall Chimney Connector
•  Beginning at the flue collar of the stove, assemble 
the chimney connector.  Insert the first crimped end 
into the stove’s flue collar, and keep each crimped end 
pointing toward the stove. 
Using the holes in the flue 
collar as guides, drill 1/8” (3 
mm) holes in the bottom of 
the first section of chimney 
connector and secure it to 
the flue collar with three 
#10 x 1/2” sheet metal 
screws.
•  Secure each joint be-
tween sections of chimney 
connector, including tele-
scoping joints, with at least 
three sheet metal screws. 
The predrilled holes in the 
top of each section of chim-
ney connector serve as 
guides when you drill 3 mm (1/8”) holes in the bottom of 
the next section.
•  Secure the chimney connector to the chimney.  In-
structions for various installations follow.
•  Be sure the installed stove and chimney connector 
are correct distances from nearby combustible material.
NOTE: Special slip pipes and thimble sleeves that form 
telescoping joints between sections of chimney con-
nector are available to simplify installations.  They often 
eliminate the need to cut individual connector sections.  
Consult your local dealer about these special pieces.
Securing the Single-wall Connector to a 
Prefabricated Chimney
For prefabricated chimneys, follow the installation 
instructions of the chimney maker exactly as you install 
the chimney.  The maker of the chimney will supply the 
accessories to support the chimney, either from the roof 
of the house, at the ceiling of the room where the stove 
is installed, or from an exterior wall.
Special adaptors are available from your local dealer to 
make the connection between the prefabricated chim-
ney and the chimney connector.  The top of such adap-
tors attaches directly to the chimney or to the chimney’s 
ceiling support package, while the bottom of the adap-
tor is screwed to the chimney connector.
These adaptors are designed so the top end will fit 
outside the inner wall of the chimney, and the bottom 
end will fit inside the first section of chimney connector.  
When assembled in this way, any soot or creosote fall-
ing from the inner walls of the chimney will stay inside 
the chimney connector.  
Securing the Single-wall Connector to a 
Masonry Chimney
For masonry chimneys, both freestanding and fireplace  
chimneys may be used for installation of your Intrepid 
Multi-fuel. 
Freestanding Chimney Installations 
If the chimney connector must pass through a combus-
tible wall to reach the chimney, follow the recommenda-
tions in the Wall Pass-through section that follows.  
The opening through the chimney wall to the flue (the 
“breach”) must be lined with either a ceramic or metal 
cylinder, called the “thimble”, which is cemented firmly 
in place. The fit must be snug and the joint between the 
thimble and the chimney wall must be cemented. (Fig. 4)

A special piece called the “thimble sleeve,” slightly 
smaller in diameter than standard connector and most 
thimbles, will facilitate the removal of the chimney con-
nector system for inspection and cleaning.  Thimble 
sleeves should be available from your local dealer. (Fig. 
5)
To install a thimble sleeve, slide it into the breach until 
it is flush with the inner flue wall.  Do not extend it into 
the actual flue passage, as this could interfere with the 
draft.  
The thimble sleeve should protrude 1-2” (25-50 mm) 
into the room.  Use furnace cement and thin gasketing 
to seal the sleeve in place in the thimble.  Secure the 
chimney connector to the outer end of the sleeve with 
sheet metal screws.
Without a thimble, a suitable length of chimney con-
nector can be extended through the breach to the inner
