The Stove
1.1 DOORS
Your stove has a large glass-paneled door for loading and 2re viewing, a
separate smaller door for removing ashes and a top loading
door. To open the glass door, turn the handle clockwise and pull out; to close
the door, return the handle to an open 9 o’clock position
and push in to engage the latch while turning the handle counterclockwise to
the 6 o’clock position. To open the ash door, lift up on the
handle and pull out. Close the door by pushing in and pushing the handle all
the way down. To open the top load door move the
wooden knob located on the left side of the stove front and upward until it
locks the top open.
All doors must be closed while the stove is in normal operation, and the
gaskets routinely examined for wear and replaced when
necessary. e glass door may be left open and the opening covered with a screen
when operating as a 2replace. Good door seals are
important for maintaining control of the stove. Operating the stove with the
ash door open, or with a door inadequately sealed, could
create a serious over 2ring condition (discussed later in this section).
NEVER OPERATE WITH MORE THAN ONE DOOR OPEN AT A TIME
e glass used in your TLC 2000 is manufactured to exact standards to withstand
the high heat of the 2re, but like all glass, it must be
treated with common sense and care. Never abuse the glass by slamming the door
shut or striking the glass with a heavy object. If the
glass is broken or damaged, do not operate the stove until it has been
replaced. e coal bars must be installed to protect the glass.
Never build a 2re directly against the glass.
1.2 GRATES
e unique grate system of the TLC 2000 consists of two cast iron
grates linked together to operate simultaneously when the external
shaker handle is moved. e purpose of the grate system is to
support the coal bed while air Lows up through the grates to the
burning coal. e grates are also used to remove ashes from the
bo-om of the coal bed while the 2re is burning. is is
accomplished by shaking the shaker lever back and forth with short
choppy strokes. is causes the ashes to fall through the grates into
the ash pan. It is the special design of the Legacy Grates that allows
longer intervals between refueling and shaking the grates.

Additional Warnings and Notices
Carbon Monoxide (CO) Awareness
Carbon monoxide, referred to as CO, is a colorless, odorless gas that is
produced during combustion of coal and other fuels. CO fumes are toxic and can
be fatal. e TLC 2000 is a natural draft system which relies on a properly
designed chimney to remove CO and other combustion by-products from the stove.
Even though this stove is designed to be as safe as possible, it is important
that you install a CO detector. is is true for oil, gas, or wood as well. CO
is not specifcally heavier or lighter than air. erefore, it is best to install
the detector at table top level rather than on the ceiling like a smoke
detector.
CO detectors are very sensitive and may sound an alarm for fumes other than CO
or CO from sources other than the stove such as car or lawn mower exhaust. If
the alarm sounds
1. Increase ventilation by opening windows or doors. 2. Make sure the stove
doors are closed and latched. 3. Check stove for normal operation. 4. Check
for false alarm. 5. Have all occupants exit the building until the cause for
the alarm is discovered and/or remedied.

Operation
1.The Stove
1.1 DOORS Your stove has a large glass-paneled door for loading and 2re
viewing, a separate smaller door for removing ashes and a top loading door. To
open the glass door, turn the handle clockwise and pull out; to close the
door, return the handle to an open 9 o’clock position and push in to engage
the latch while turning the handle counterclockwise to the 6 o’clock position.
To open the ash door, lift up on the handle and pull out. Close the door by
pushing in and pushing the handle all the way down. To open the top load door
move the wooden knob located on the left side of the stove front and upward
until it locks the top open.
All doors must be closed while the stove is in normal operation, and the
gaskets routinely examined for wear and replaced when necessary. e glass door
may be left open and the opening covered with a screen when operating as a
2replace. Good door seals are important for maintaining control of the stove.
Operating the stove with the ash door open, or with a door inadequately
sealed, could create a serious over 2ring condition (discussed later in this
section).
NEVER OPERATE WITH MORE THAN ONE DOOR OPEN AT A TIME
e glass used in your TLC 2000 is manufactured to exact standards to withstand
the high heat of the 2re, but like all glass, it must be treated with common
sense and care. Never abuse the glass by slamming the door shut or striking
the glass with a heavy object. If the glass is broken or damaged, do not
operate the stove until it has been replaced. e coal bars must be installed to
protect the glass. Never build a 2re directly against the glass.
1.2 GRATES e unique grate system of the TLC 2000 consists of two cast iron
grates linked together to operate simultaneously when the external shaker
handle is moved. e purpose of the grate system is to support the coal bed
while air Lows up through the grates to the burning coal. e grates are also
used to remove ashes from the bo-om of the coal bed while the 2re is burning.
is is accomplished by shaking the shaker lever back and forth with short
choppy strokes. is causes the ashes to fall through the grates into the ash
pan. It is the special design of the Legacy Grates that allows longer
intervals between refueling and shaking the grates.
REMOVAL OR MODIFICATION OF THIS GRATE SYSTEM MAY CAUSE A DANGEROUS SITUATION
2. Fuels (USA)
2.1 COAL Anthracite coal, pea or nut size, is the primary fuel for which the
TLC 2000 is designed. Bituminous coal may also be burned but the results will
vary due to the variation in bituminous coal from region to region.
2.2 WOOD (USED FOR COAL FIRE STARTUP) Wood may be burned in the TLC 2000 only
in the startup preparation for burning coal. A hot bed of burning coals from
wood is the best preparation for starting a coal 2re.
3. Fuels (Canada)
3.1 COAL Anthracite coal, pea or nut size, may also be burned as a primary
fuel for the TLC 2000. Bituminous coal may also be burned but the results will
vary due to the variation in bituminous coal from region to region. Fuel
should be stored in a dry place, preferably indoors. Keep fuel outside the
installation clearance area. Also, keep fuel away from all maintenance access
areas.
CAUTION! USE OF FUELS OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED WILL VOID THE PRODUCT
WARRANTY AND MAY POSE A RISK TO PERSONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY. PER EPA
REGULATIONS, CONTINUOUS WOOD BURNING IS PROHIBITED
AND WILL VOID THE STOVE WARRANTY.

Building & Maintaining a Fire
4. Air Controls
4.1 COAL Coal must have air coming up through the coal bed in order to burn.
Some additional air over the top of the coal helps burn gases. A small amount
of air enters the top of the coal 2re when the secondary air controls are in
the down position. e primary air control for coal burning is a knob located on
the bo-om door. Sliding the knob to the left provides less air for a smaller
2re. Sliding the knob to the right provides more air for a larger 2re. When
burning wood during coal 2re startup, this knob should be all the way to the
left, closed. 4.2 SECONDARY AIR CONTROLS Wood burns with top or bo-om air;
however, top air coming down across the glass to form an air curtain works
best and keeps the glass clean during the coal startup phase. is is why it is
recommended that the coal control be positioned to the left for the initial
wood burning phase used to prepare for coal. e secondary air controls are
located on each side as shown above. Both controls should be adjusted equally.
Air from these controls also provides a curtain of air across the glass to
keep it clean. Move the controls down for less heat and up for more heat. When
burning coal these controls should be in the down position. When burning soft
coal or other coal with high volatiles, a small amount of secondary air can
improve combustion.
CAUTION! THE SECONDARY AIR CONTROLS ARE HOT! USE THE REMOVABLE SHAKER HANDLE
OR GLOVES TO ADJUST THESE CONTROLS!
CAUTION! THE OPERATION RANGE OF THE AIR CONTROLS MAY NOT BE ALTERED FOR ANY
REASON
CAUTION! ALWAYS WEAR FIRE-RESISTANT GLOVES TO OPERATE THE STOVE. THE AIR
CONTROL IS HOT WHILE IN OPERATION.
5. Building and Maintaining Fire
5.1 STARTING A FIRE Crumple up six to eight sheets of news paper and place in
the 2rebox. Next place pieces of dry wood 3/4 inch maximum diameter on top of
the paper, Next place several 1″-2″ split pieces of dry wood on top, followed
by a few 2″-3″ split pieces. Set the secondary air controls at the maximum
heat output se-ing, all the way up. Place the knob on the bo-om door to the
left. ese se-ings will allow the glass to stay clean as you build your 2re. e
coal knob may be moved to the right to speed the ignition process but the
glass may get dirty. Ignite the paper and allow the 2re to burn until a good
charcoal bed, 2″- 3″ (50 mm – 80 mm) is formed. You may need to leave the ash
door open a crack to get the blaze going properly, but never leave the stove
una-ended with a door open. Once the charcoal bed is established you may add
coal to your stove.
NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER
FLUID, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP” A FIRE IN THIS HEATER. KEEP
ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE
HEATER WHILE IT IS IN USE.
-12-
5.2 BUILDING AND MAINTAINING A COAL FIRE
For quick startup on coal, it is best to limit the wood size to about 2″ in
diameter. Add enough 2″ wood that the 2rebox Loor is covered with burning
wood. Once you have completed the steps for starting a 2re, put the wood air
controls in the down position and slide the coal air control to the right. is
makes the primary air Low up through the grates as is required for coal
burning. Next add a layer of coal on top of the wood. Continue burning until
the layer of coal is turning red and igniting. It is possible to speed this
process by opening the ash door, but never for more than 2ve minutes at a
time. Operation with the ash door open for more than 2ve minutes will over 2re
the stove and may cause damage to the stove. Never leave the stove una-ended
with the ash door open. After the layer of coal is burning, a second layer may
be added. After the second layer is burning, more layers may be added. Do not
add coal above the 2rebricks or grate bars. e stove is hot while in operation.
Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. As
you begin to operate your stove at higher temperatures, you will notice a
“hot” or unpleasant smell; this is just the paint going through the curing
process, and will disappear after a few 2res. Always remember to keep all
combustibles, including fuel, beyond the code-required clearance distance (48″
or 1215 mm in the U.S., 1525 mm or 60″ in Canada). Never store fuel in front
of the stove where it could interfere with door operation, safe loading, and
ash removal.
5.3 BLOWER USE
To regulate the speed of the optional convection blower, adjust the control
from low to high by turning the knob located on the blower cord.
5.4 ASH REMOVAL
Always wear gloves to remove the ash pan. Lift the latch on the ash door and
open. Pull the ash pan out by the handle. Lift the handle to the vertical
position to carry the ashes to a disposal location. Close the ash door while
you are disposing of the ashes. e 2re will get very hot if the bo-om door is
left open even for a short period. Replace the ash pan. Remove ashes from the
2re chamber periodically by shaking the grates. During start up, wood burns
best with an ash bed under the wood; therefore, do not shake all of the ashes
down. Never let the ashes build up to over 3″ in depth. Excessive ash buildup
can prevent proper venting of exhaust gases. Also do not over2ll the ash pan.
Ash buildup between the ash pan and the grates can cause them to overheat and
wear out prematurely.
e TLC 2000 was designed to provide access to the ash pan without the need for
opening the main door. Wearing heavy protective gloves, open the ash door and
remove the ash pan by pulling it forward by the handle. Close the ash door
before taking the ashes outside for safe disposal. A good time to empty the
ash pan is before loading. is ensures that the ashes will be cold and safer to
handle than directly after shaking the ashes down or tending the 2re.
Ashes should be placed in a steel container with a tight 2-ing lid and moved
outdoors immediately. e closed container of ashes should be placed on a
noncombustible Loor or on the ground, well away from all combustible
materials, pending 2nal disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in
soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other waste shall not be
placed in this container.
5.5 OVER FIRING
Avoid over 2ring your stove. is is a potentially hazardous situation which can
lead to the overheating of combustible wall or poor materials, damage to the
stove, and in extreme cases, cause a 2re. Over 2ring is caused by: Too much
air Lowing through the stove too quickly. You may have inadvertently left the
bo-om door open. Or, Not keeping up with routine maintenance, such as checking
door gaskets for wear. e chimney may have excessive draw or draft, which can
be remedied by installing a barometric damper. Over 2ring results in excessive
fuel consumption, and may cause parts of the stove or chimney connector to
glow red. If you notice signs of over 2ring, reduce the air supply to the 2re,
and review the Maintenance section in this manual. Do not burn the stove
continuously at the maximum se-ing. If maximum heat is required day after day,
the stove is too small for the area you are trying to heat.
NEVER LEAVE THE STOVE UNATTENDED IF EITHER THE ASH
OR LOAD DOOR IS OPEN. OVER FIRING MAY RESULT.-13-
In the event of a chimney 2re, call your local 2re department; make sure
everyone is safely out of the house. Reduce the air intake of the stove as
much as possible using the air control lever. Do not throw water on the 2re;
this can cause stove damage and create an even more dangerous situation. Have
your chimney professionally cleaned and inspected before resuming burning in
your stove. 5.6 REFUELING COAL Open the coal air control to the maximum
position by sliding it to the right. Allow the 2re to burn vigorously for
several minutes. Shake the grates with short choppy strokes until the 2rst red
coals fall into the ash pan, then stop! Add coal to the top of the coal bed.
It is good to allow some red hot coals exposed to help ignite the gases coming
oS of the newly added coal. ese gases can be volatile if left to accumulate. e
coal air control may be returned to the desired se-ing. 5.7 USE OF OPTIONAL
STAINLESS STEEL COOKING GRILL
e cooking grill can be used for open 2re grilling. To install the grill, place
the handle in the grill as shown at left. e grill can now be lifted and
positioned in the opening on top of the stove as shown below left. Cooking on
anthracite coal produces Lavor similar to a gas grill. More Lavor is added
when cooking is done with the top closed. is causes the heat and smoke to
circle around the food. As with grilling or any open 2re cooking, the amount
of heat and cooking time must be experimented with to achieve the best
results.
CAUTION! COOKING GRILL MAY BE HOT. ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES WHEN HANDLING THE
COOKING GRILL.
Maintenance
6.0 The Stove
6.1 SURFACE e stove’s exterior surface should be dusted periodically with a
soft cloth. For more thorough cleaning, wait until the stove is cool
before using a damp cloth to clean any blemishes. 6.2 CONTROLS To avoid a rust
build-up on the inner surfaces of the controls, work the controls back and
forth several times, during the summer, or any prolonged period when you are
not using your stove. 6.3 THE FIRE CHAMBER
e inside of the 2re chamber should be examined for damage to the 2rebrick
lining material, and grates. If any bricks have been damaged, replace them
with Legacy Stoves replacement parts.
-14-
6.4 VENTING SYSTEM CHIMNEY Creosote – Formation and the need for removal-
When wood is burned slowly (during start up) it produces tar and other organic
vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. e creosote
vapors condense in a cool chimney of a slow burning 2re. As a result, creosote
residue accumulates in the Lue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an
extremely hot 2re. e chimney connector and chimney must be inspected at least
once every two months during the heating season to determine if a creosote
build-up has occurred. If a signi2cant layer of creosote has accumulated (3mm
or more), it must be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney 2re. In the event
of a chimney 2re, call your local 2re department; make sure everyone is safely
out of the house. Reduce the air intake of the stove as much as possible using
the air control lever. Do not throw water on the 2re; this can cause stove
damage and create an even more dangerous situation. Have your chimney
professionally cleaned and inspected before resuming burning in your stove.
6.5 GLASS REPLACEMENT
e glass in this unit is a ceramic glass. 5mm X 444mm X 311 mm. available from
your Legacy Stoves dealer. If the stove’s glass is cracked or broken, you must
replace it before operating your stove. Remove pieces carefully. Replace glass
only with Legacy supplied replacement glass panels; do not use substitutes. To
replace the glass panel, you will need to remove the door. To do this, open
the door, lift it straight up and place it on a soft surface. Carefully remove
damaged glass, gasket material, and hold down clips. Set the clips aside for
use when installing the replacement glass. Referring to the diagram, note how
the various components of the door system 2t together. Lay the load door face
down on the soft surface, and install the self adhesive 1/4″ gasket material
around the front face of the glass. Set the glass pane and gasket gently onto
the door. Install the hold down clips and tighten with bolts as shown.
Reinstall door on stove.
6.6 GLASS CLEANING Sometimes it will be necessary to clean accumulated ash
from the glass surface; allowing this ash to remain on the glass for long
periods can result in “etching” due to the acidity of the ash. e creosote
which accumulates on the glass should burn oS during your hot 2res. Never
clean the glass while it is hot, and do not use abrasive substances. Wash the
surface with cool water, and rinse thoroughly. You may wish to use a non-
abrasive cleaner speci2cally designed for use on stove glass. In any case, dry
thoroughly before relighting your stove.
-15-
6.7 GASKETS Gaskets are used on the doors and top lid of the TLC 2000. You
must check these gaskets from time to time, and replace them when necessary. e
gaskets are made of 2berglass of diSerent sizes (obtainable from Legacy
Dealer) and are 2xed in place with a high temperature stove gasket cement. To
change a gasket, 2rst remove the worn 2berglass and clean the area with a wire
brush. Also clean any other surfaces that come into contact with the gasket.
Place a small bead of cement in the area under the gasket, then press new
gasket material into the channel; do not overlap the ends. Seat the gasket
2rmly by applying pressure when possible; for example, after changing the door
gasket, close the door. Allow the cement to dry before using your stove.
Gasket locations include:
· On the doors to provide airtight closure · On the lid 6.8 BLOWER e optional
blower on your TLC 2000 stove requires very li-le maintenance. You should,
however, keep the air inlet and the motor free of dust and dirt. In dirty
environments, dirt may accumulate on the fan itself. Pet hair is also a
possible source of build-up on the fan.
-16-
Installation
CAUTION! DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM
7.0 Assembly
7.1 BLOWER OPTION Bolt the blower to the bo-om rear of the stove with four
1/4-20 bolts. Tighten the bolts, but do not overtighten.
e blower speed can be adjusted using the knob that is built-in to the power
cord. When 2rst starting a 2re, keep the blower oS. After a good bed of coals
is established, you can run the blower at any speed desired.
e power cord for the blower must be connected to a grounded outlet, and must
be routed away from the appliance.
7.2 TOP AIR GRILL OPTION e top air grill must be installed before the chimney
connector is
installed. To install simply place the top air grill over the Lue out let and
position as shown at left. It is held in place by gravity.
e top air grill is a decorative option that does not add or subtract from the
performance of the stove.
7.3 FLOOR PROTECTION In all installations, the area under and around the stove
must be protected from falling ash and live coals. noncombustible material,
and positioned as shown in the accompanying illustration.
e Guidelines for Floor Protection
-17-
e Loor protector must be of
1. Completely under the stove and any horizontal runs of connector. e Loor
protection must extend a minimum of 2″ (51 mm) beyond each side of the
horizontal connector;
2. 8″ (203 mm) to each side and to the rear of the appliance; 3. 16″ (405 mm)
in front of the doors (U.S.); 18″ (457 mm) in front of the doors (Canada).
(see diagram in next section: 7.4 Clearances)
7.4 CLEARANCES Clearance is the empty space required between the stove or
chimney connector to the nearest combustible surface or object, such as walls,
ceilings, Loors, or furniture. Clearance distances may only be reduced by
using methods approved by either the CAN/CSA B365 standard (Canada) or NFPA
211 (U.S.) Contact your building authority for information if you are
interested in reducing clearance distances other than those presented here.
Parallel Versus Corner Installations
A parallel installation is one in which the back and sides of the stove are
parallel to the walls behind and to the side of the stove. A corner
installation is one in which the back of the stove is positioned diagonally
across a corner of the room. Each installation requires its own set of
clearances.
For parallel installations the required clearance distances from the stove
are: 18″ (457mm) to the side wall and 16″ (405mm) to the back wall. From the
chimney connector to the rear wall must be 18″ (457mm), to the side wall 27″
(685mm) and to the ceiling, 36″ (914mm). Fireplace installations must meet
these same clearance requirements; speci2cally follow these guidelines for
mantel and trim clearances.
For corner installations, the clearance distances from the stove are 12″
(305mm) from each corner of the stove measured straight to the nearest
combustible material. When the unit is placed 12 inches from the wall, the
measurement of the Wall to Flue Connector will be 21 inches. Note that this is
larger than the required minimum clearance of 18 inches.
From the front of the stove, clearance to combustible materials such as
furniture, curtains, fuel, etc., is: 48″ (1219mm) in the U.S. and 60″ (1524mm)
in Canada.

Venting
8.0 The Chimney System
8.1 SOOT AND CREOSOTE FORMATION AND REMOVAL When wood is burned slowly (during
start up) it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with
expelled moisture to form soot or creosote. e soot and creosote vapors
condense in the relatively cool chimney Lue of a slow burning 2re. As a
result, soot or creosote residue accumulates on the Lue lining. When ignited,
this soot or creosote can result in an extremely hot 2re.
e chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least once every two
months during the heating season to determine if a soot or creosote build-up
has occurred. If soot or creosote has accumulated (3 mm or more) it should be
removed to reduce the risk of a chimney 2re. Checking your chimney and chimney
connector more frequently, especially while you are ge-ing used to your stove,
is recommended. To inspect this system, let the stove cool. Using a Lashlight
and mirror, check the interior of the chimney connector, and the chimney
itself.
To clean deposits from the surface of the connector, use a stiS wire brush
after dismantling the connector assembly. To clean the chimney, use a
specially designed brush sized to 2t your particular Lue opening, or call an
established chimney cleaning service. At the end of the heating season,
perform a thorough examination of your chimney system, and have it repaired if
necessary.
MAINTAIN CHIMNEY AND CHIMNEY CONNECTORS, KEEP CLEAN AND IN GOOD CONDITION!
8.2 DRAFT Draft is widely misunderstood. It is important that you, the stove
operator, realize that draft is a variable eSect, not a given quantity. Stoves
and chimneys do not have draft, yet draft is the key to your stove’s
performance.
Draft is a force, produced by an operating stove and the chimney to which it
is a-ached. It is created by hot gases rising up the chimney, creating a
pressure diSerence between the inside of your home and the outside air. It
continually moves fresh combustion air into the stove, and hot exhaust gases
out of the stove; without this constant Low, the 2re will go out.
Other factors, such as barometric pressure, winds, the airtightness of the
home, the total inside chimney volume, chimney height and the presence of
venting devices such as exhaust fans also play a role in maintaining an
adequate draft. In some cases, a window may need to be left open, or some
other source of fresh air provided, to keep the appliance operating properly.
Low barometric pressures, super insulated homes and exhaust fans can reduce
draft; winds can play havoc with draft; and too large or too small a chimney
volume can cause reduced draft due to the excessive cooling or not enough room
to vent exhaust gases quickly.
Some signs of inadequate draft are smoking, odor, diEculty in maintaining the
2re, and low heat output. Overdraft can be caused by a very tall chimney even
if it is the recommended size, and can cause over 2ring of your stove. Signs
of an overdraft include rapid fuel consumption, inability to slow the 2re, and
parts of the stove or chimney connector glowing red. It is important that you
follow the chimney guidelines in this manual, including size, type, and height
to avoid draft problems.
When installed and operated according to this manual, the TLC 2000 will
produce enough hot gases to keep the chimney warm so that adequate draft is
maintained throughout the burn cycle. See later in this section for
installation of a barometric damper to limit maximum draft.
8.3 CHIMNEY CONNECTORS In general, following these guidelines will ensure
compliance with all national and provincial codes; prior to beginning your
installation, check with your local building code oEcial to check on
additional local regulations which may inLuence the design and placement of
your venting system.
e Legacy TLC 2000 may be installed with 24 MSG, 6 inch diameter (150mm)
chimney connector pipe. Size of the connector should correspond to the size of
the Lue collar opening. Do not use makeshift compromises. No part of the
chimney connector may pass through an a-ic or roof space, closet or other
concealed space, or through a Loor or ceiling. Whenever possible, avoid
passing the connector through a combustible wall; if you must, use an approved
wall pass-through, described later in this section.
Assemble the connector beginning at the Lue collar, with the crimped ends
pointing towards the stove (to keep debris and creosote Lakes inside the
system). Each joint, including the one to the stove’s Lue collar and the one
to the chimney itself should be secured with at least three sheet metal
screws. Screws may be a maximum of 3 inches apart. A 1-1/4″ (30 mm) overlap is
required at each joint, including the Lue collar a-achment. No more than two
90 degree elbows should be used, and the total length of connector should not
exceed 10 feet (3 m). All horizontal runs of connector must have a minimum
upward slope of 1/4″(6 mm) per foot (20 mm per meter).
8.4 WALL PASS-THROUGHS Occasionally it is necessary to pass the chimney
connector through a combustible wall to reach the chimney. Depending on your
local building codes, and the pertinent provincial or national codes, there
are several choices for accomplishing this safely. Before beginning your
installation, contact local oEcials, and also the chimney connector and
chimney manufacturer for speci2c requirements.
-19-
Canada: ree methods are approved by the Canadian Standards Association. e
diagram shows one method requiring an 18″ (450mm) air space between the
connector and the wall. It allows use of one or two covers as described in the
diagram. e two other methods are described in detail in the current issue of
CAN/CSA B365, the national standard. United States: In the U.S., the national
code is NFPA 211. While many localities adopt this standard, be sure to check
with local authorities before beginning your installation.
e NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) permits four methods for passing
through a combustible wall. A commonly used method to pass through a wall
directly to a masonry chimney is to clear a minimum 12″(300 mm) around the
entire chimney connector, and 2ll it with brick masonry which is at least
3.5″(90 mm) thick. A 2reclay liner, minimum 3/8″ (9 mm) wall thickness must
run through the brick wall to the chimney liner (but not beyond the inner
surface of the liner). It must be cemented in place with refractory cement. is
method is illustrated. For details on the other three options, refer to the
most recent edition of the NFPA 211 code.
8.5 THE CHIMNEY e TLC 2000 must be installed into a chimney approved for use
with solid-fuel appliances. In the U.S., the TLC 2000 must be connected to (1)
a prefabricated chimney complying with the requirements for Type HT chimneys
in the Standard for Chimneys, Factory-Built, Residential Type and Building
Heating Appliances, UL 103, or (2) a code approved masonry chimney with a Lue
liner. In Canada, the TLC 2000 is listed for use with prefabricated chimneys
tested and listed to the high temperature (650 degrees C) chimney standard,
ULC S-629, or with a code approved masonry chimney.
e minimum recommended height for any chimney is 16 ft (4.8 m) above Lue collar
height. A round Lue (either masonry or approved prefabricated), of either 6″
(150 mm), 7″ (180 mm) or 8″ (200 mm) may be used. For square or rectangular
masonry chimneys, nominal sizes of 8″ x 8″or 8″x 12″ (200 mm x 200 mm, 200 mm
x 300 mm) may be used. Building codes require that solid-fuel chimneys extend
3 ft (0.9 m) above the point at which they exit from the roof, provided that
no part of any structure is within the top of the chimney, then the chimney
must extend 2 ft (6 m) above the highest point with the 10 ft (3 m) radius top
height. If there is not ten feet of clearance from the top of the chimney,
then the chimney must extend 2 ft (6 m) above the highest point with the 10 ft
(3 m) radius.
WARNING ! DO NOT INSTALL IN SLEEPING ROOM! DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A
CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE!
-20-
8.6 EXISTING MASONRY CHIMNEYS
If you plan on using a preexisting masonry chimney, have it thoroughly
inspected and cleaned. Any faults which make the chimney unsafe and unusable
must be repaired prior to use. ese can include improper height, structural
defects, blockages, inadequate clearance to combustibles, unsealed openings
into other rooms of the house, signs of creosote or smoke leakage, a loose or
absent clean-out door, or absence of a liner.
DO NOT CONNECT TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM
When connecting to a masonry chimney, several provisions are standard. First, whether the chimney connector is vented to the chimney through a thimble or a breech pipe, neither must pass beyond the inner surface of the chimney liner, and both must be 2rmly cemented in place with refractory cement. (A thimble is a masonry pipe which is inserted through the chimney wall, and is frequently the preferred method; a breech pipe is a piece of steel pipe used the same way.) In Canada, a breech pipe has ridges or protrusions to lock it 2rmly into the refractory cement. In either case, the chimney connector vents to the chimney through the thimble or breech pipe.
Using a thimble, the connector slides completely inside the masonry to the inner edge of the Lue liner, and may be easily removed for chimney and connector inspection. A breech pipe must extend at least 2″ (50 mm) into the room, so the connector can be a-ached with sheet metal screws.

8.7 VENTING TO A MASONRY FIREPLACE CHIMNEY In some situations, a code
compliant chimney originally used for a masonry 2replace may be used to
install your TLC 2000. In addition to the requirements found in the previous
paragraphs, it is important to be aware that all clearances must be met,
including those from the chimney connector to combustibles — 18″ (360 mm) to
sides and 18″ (450 mm) to ceiling. Do not forget to include Loor protection in
your plans. (See section on Clearances and Floor Protection) Since many
2replaces have exposed wooden mantels and trim, pay special a-ention to the
clearances necessary to these materials.
e chimney must be lined with the needs of the heating appliance in mind,
including minimum and maximum sizes. Insulated linings work best for providing
good draft to the stove. e lining will comply with one of the following:
1. Clay Lue lining complying with the requirements of ASTM C315 or
equivalent.
2. Listed chimney lining systems complying with UL 1777. 3. Factory-built
chimneys or chimney units listed for installation within
masonry chimneys. 4. Other approved materials that will resist corrosion,
erosion, softening, or
cracking from Lue gases and condensate at temperatures up to 1,800º F. (982º
C) If your 2replace chimney is behind a combustible wall, you must use an
approved wall pass-through system to gain access to the masonry chimney. e
chimney connector must enter the chimney at a place where it is lined, and the
2replace must be made inoperable. For example, you might remove the damper,
replacing it with a secure, airtight, noncombustible seal (removable for
inspection); this also satis2es the requirement that no room air must be
allowed to enter the chimney.
-22-
8.8 INSTALLING TO A PREFABRICATED CHIMNEY When venting your TLC 2000 using a
prefabricated chimney, be sure to contact local building code authorities, and
to follow the manufacturer’s instructions exactly. Use only the manufacturer’s
parts; do not use makeshift installation techniques. All prefabricated
chimneys must be tested to either the U.S. or Canadian hightemperature
standards, UL 103 or ULC-629.
Your manufactured chimney may contain more parts than is shown at right.
Include all required items in your installation. A chimney cap (A) serves to
keep rain and snow from entering the chimney. An approved Class A chimney (B)
is required for the Super Magnum Stoker. Wall Bands (C) must be deployed for
support per manufacturer’s recommendations. A manufacturer’s Wall Support Kit
(D) will contain required items for supporting the chimney. Such kits will
cost less than individual items purchased separately. A Bo-om Cap (E, location
marked, but actual cap not shown) allows for cleaning. A Finishing Collar (F)
provides inside wall protection. A Wall imble (G) provides for required
clearance between the chimney pipe passing through a Lammable wall. e Chimney
Connector (H) must be approved single wall, or a low clearance pipe, installed
with required clearances in place. A Roof Brace
(I) is required for chimneys that extend more than a certain distance, as
referenced by the manufacturer’s instructions, from the roof. Manufactured
chimneys may feature a built in “twist lock” at each joint, but a Joint Band
(J) is still normally required to secure pipe at the joint. An approved
Chimney Pipe Adapter (K) is required. A Ceiling Support (L) will provide
structural support for the chimney and is typically part of a kit that
includes items that maintain required clearances to Lammables. A Storm Collar
(M), and Adjustable Flashing (N) prevent water from entering the home by
running down the outside of the chimney. Additional items or a kit (O) provide
additional mounting support or 2re protection to the roof joists or other roof
components.
e Legacy TLC 2000 was tested with the fuel door open and closed. If you
operate with the door open, be sure to install the optional 2re screen, and be
sure the cleanout cover above the 2rebox is removed. Do not burn any fuel
other than those speci2ed. Other solid fuels, such as charcoal, can cause
increased carbon monoxide production or over2ring. When solid fuels are burned
completely, they produce water and carbon dioxide. However, in long slow
burns, a substantial amount of carbon monoxide may be produced. If allowed to
build up, carbon monoxide (which is odorless) can prove fatally poisonous.
Proper ventilation and draft will prevent this from happening. If you smell
smoke, turn up the air control lever se-ing, and thoroughly ventilate your
dwelling. During future burns, be careful not to overload the stove with fuel,
so you will not be tempted to constantly operate at a low air control se-ing.
Other causes of poor ventilation or draft are icing, exhaust fans, a blocked
outside air inlet, and room air starvation. If your stove is sluggish and you
get occasional odor, check these possibilities and increase the airLow in your
home.
-23-
8.9 BAROMETRIC DAMPER SETUP If the TLC 2000 is operated on coal, maximum draft
is to be limited to -.08 inches of water column. e combination of a properly
constructed chimney, with an active 2re burning in an a-ached TLC 2000 stove,
will result in draft that frequently exceeds this limit unless a barometric
damper is in place. Follow these steps to ensure safe and eEcient operation of
your TLC 2000 stove, 2red with coal. You will need to start a 2re in the
appliance to establish a draft in the chimney Lue. Refer back to these
instructions after reading the entire manual.
1. Drill a hole into the Lue connector pipe, for the purpose of a-aching a
draft meter. is hole should be between the barometric damper and the stove’s
Lue collar, and in an inconspicuous location, as it will be closed oS after
the test with a bolt.
2. A-ach the draft meter to the hole in the connector. A great chimney will
have draft without a 2re or heat source. Set the barometric damper to maintain
-.06 to -.08 (inches of water column).
3. Remove the draft meter from the connector pipe and seal the hole by
threading in a screw or bolt. You may also want to apply a small dab of high-
temperature silicone to the threads prior to installing.

during the warranty period. These parts include: paint, wood, pellet and coal
