Heat Shield Kit
A space saving heat shield kit enables you to install your
cookstove as close as 2" (51mm) to a combustible wall!
Installation is Easy
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 Heartland Appliances Inc.

Stovepipe Chimney
Connection Requirements
1. The stovepipe chimney connector should be made of 24
gauge or thicker sheet metal and should be 6” in 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.
A vertical run of stovepipe to a prefabricated metal chimney
should be no longer than 8 ft.
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” 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.
