How to Install the Wood Stove in the DIY Sauna

Cutting Out the Hole for the Chimney:

1. Cut the Hole:
   • Cut the hole, which was also sawn in the wooden formwork, out of the roof shingles. This is where the stove pipe will be placed.

Installing the Wood Stove:

1. Position the Stove:
   • Place the wood stove in the sauna and ensure that the chimney of the stove is centered in the hole in the roof.

Installing the First Chimney Pipe:

1. Place the Pipe:
   • Place the first double-walled chimney pipe. Make sure that the supplied metal plate and hose clamp are around the pipe.

Connecting the Chimney Pipes:

1. Add the Second Pipe:
   • Place the second double-walled chimney section into the first and connect them together with the hose clamp.

Attaching the Metal Plate:

1. Secure the Plate:
   • Screw the metal plate to the ceiling with four 4x20 screws.

Chimney Sealing:

1. Seal the Chimney:
   • Use bitumen sealant to create a seal around the chimney on the roof. Ensure it is slightly smaller than the rubber cap.

Placing the Rubber Cap:

1. Position the Cap:
   • Pull the rubber cap over the chimney. If necessary, use WD-40 or water as a lubricant.
2. Secure the Cap:
   • Press the rubber cap firmly onto the bitumen sealant and screw it onto the roof with twelve 4x20 screws.

Attaching the Hose Clamp:

1. Tighten the Clamp:
   • Tighten a supplied hose clamp around the rubber cap and the pipe.

Placing the Rain Cap:
