A space saving heat shield kit enables you to install your 

cookstove as close as  2” (51mm) to a combustible wall!

The heat shield kit is available for both Oval and Sweetheart 

cookstoves and mounts directly on the rear of the stove. The 

main section of the shield covers the firebox and oven of the 

cookstove, while the upper section covers the flu pipe to the 

height of the warming cabinet.(See illustration, Fig. 4.)  

An installation and operating manual is packed with every Oval 

and Sweetheart heat shield kit. Extra copies may be obtained 

from your dealer or by contacting AGA Marvel.

1.  The stovepipe chimney connector should be made of 24 

gauge or thicker sheet metal and should be 6” in (15.24 

cm) diameter.

2.  The last section of the chimney connector starting from 

the stove should be screwed to the flue collar of the stove. 

Individual sections of the chimney connector must be 

screwed together with at least three sheet metal screws. 

The last section should be securely attached to the 

chimney. Be sure there are no “weak links” in the system.

3.  The crimped ends of pipe sections should point downward 

toward the stove so that any soot or creosote that falls 

from the inside of the pipe will be funnelled into a clean 

out or fall into the stove.

4.  The chimney connector should be at least the height of 

the warming cabinet before a 90 degree turn is installed, 

with no more than two 90 degree turns.

5.  A horizontal run of stovepipe should be no longer than 4 

ft (1.22m). A vertical run of stovepipe to a prefabricated 

metal chimney should be no longer than 8 ft (2.44m).

6.  Do not pass the stovepipe chimney connector through 

a combustible wall if it can be avoided. If this cannot 

be avoided, follow the recommended in CSA B365 in 

Canada and NFPA 211 in the U.S., recommendation on 

Wall Pass-Throughs.

7.  Do not use single wall smokepipe as an outside chimney.
8.  Never pass stovepipe chimney connector through a 

combustible ceiling.

9.  The whole chimney connector should be exposed and 

accessible for inspection and cleaning.

10.  Galvanized stovepipe should not be used. When exposed 

to the temperatures reached by smoke and exhaust gases, 

galvanized pipe may release toxic fumes.

11.  Horizontal runs of chimney connector should slope upward 

1/4” (6.35 mm) per foot going from the stove toward the 

chimney.

12. During a chimney fire, the chimney connector may vibrate 

violently. The connector must be securely attached to 

the pipe and chimney, and individual sections must be 

securely attached together.

13. This stove is not to be connected to an air distribution 

duct.
