A MAJOR CAUSE OF CHIMNEY RELATED FIRES IS FAILURE TO MAINTAIN

REQUIRED CLEARANCES (AIR SPACE) TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS. IT IS OF

UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT THIS CONNECTOR BE INSTALLED ONLY IN

ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

EXCELPrime is used to connect a solid, liquid and gas fired appliances,

including wood burning stoves, freestanding fireplaces, and furnaces to a pre-

fabricated metal or masonry chimney. EXCELPrime is intended for interior use

only.

Contact local building or fire officials about local restrictions and building

inspections in your area.

Always follow the wood burning stove manufacturer's installation instructions.

Keep these installation and operating instructions in a safe location for future

reference.

EXCELPRIME 2 Owner’s Manual

INSTALLATION NOTES

If you are planning to install a wood stove, we recommend that you:

1. Install the stove and stove pipe as described in the Installation Instructions

accompanying the stove. BE CERTAIN TO MAINTAIN THE REQUIRED

CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION.

2. Keep your flue gases between 300° and 500°F. This will maximize

efficiency while minimizing condensation and creosote formation.

3. Do not burn sea driftwood and treated lumber.

4. Clearance to EXCELPrime can be reduced when combined with listed

EXCELPrime heat shields. Refer to heat shield instructions for details.

5. EXCELPrime is made of coated plain steel. Its durability is limited for coal

installation.

6. Have your chimney cleaned by a qualified chimney sweep. If you want to

clean your chimney yourself, then clean your chimney using a properly fitting

nylon or steel brush. Do not use a brush that will scratch the stainless steel

interior of the chimney. Use of an oversize brush may damage the chimney.

7. Do not expect chemical chimney cleaners to keep your stove pipe clean.

Their use does not negate the necessity of periodically inspecting and

cleaning your chimney.

8. After a chimney fire, do not use the stove again until your chimney and stove

pipe have been inspected by a qualified chimney sweep or Fire Department

Inspector.

9. Do not enclose this stove pipe. It must not pass through floors, attics,

closets, walls or ceilings.

10.EXCELPrime must not exceed 10 feet in length and a maximum of two 90

degrees elbow is permitted.

11. If you plan to connect EXCELPrime to a masonry chimney you should have

the chimney checked by a qualified chimney sweep. Masonry chimneys

should only be used if they are in good condition and meet local building

code.

EXCELPRIME 3 Owner’s Manual

STRAIGHT UP INSTALLATION

For most straight up installations the only

part required is an adjustable length

(SWA). The SWA adjusts to allow any

overall length from 40" to 68". The SWA

is packed in two pieces.

Pick up the section with the expanded top

and slide it into the section with the

shrunk bottom. Do not drop the length or

it may become stuck.

1. Set the adjustable length so that the

shrunk bottom fits into the flue collar of

the stove. Screw the pipe to the flue collar

with three 3/4” metal screws. The black

screws provided are self drilling and will

not normally need a pilot hole for steel

stove collars.

2. Slide the top length of the SWA up over the chimney pipe adapter at the

bottom of the chimney support. Connect it to the adapter with three 3/8’’

metal screws provided.

3. If the system is straight (i.e. no elbows), then it is not recommended to fasten

the slip joint in SWA to allow for expansion.

4. If you require additional height you may add lengths above or below the

adjustable length. Always install the shrunk end on the bottom. Screw two

lengths of EXCELPrime together with the 3/8’’ metal screws provided.

90° ELBOW INSTALLATION

When connecting EXCELPrime to a chimney at the wall, there are multiple

choices for 90° elbows (SW90, SW90C, SW90S & SWA90).

SW90 - 90°elbow

SW90C - Clean Out Elbow

SW90S - Slip Elbow

SWA90 - Adjustable Elbow

SW90

SW90C

SW90S

SWA90

Most 90° elbow installations only require an elbow and the adjustable length

(SWA). If the height from the top of the stove to the top of the elbow is less

than 48”, then you will require a shorter length and a slip section or the slip

elbow. Depending on the wall construction you may also require a short length

between the wall and the elbow to ensure safe clearances.

EXCELPRIME 4 Owner’s Manual

1. Assemble the adjustable

length (see instruction for

straight up installation).

2. Screw the 90° elbow to the

adjustable length using the

3/8” metal screws

provided.

3. Set the adjustable length

so that the shrunk bottom

fits into the flue collar of the

stove. Screw the pipe to

the flue collar with three

3/4” metal screws. The

black screws provided are

self drilling and will not

normally need a pilot hole

for steel stove collars.

4. Extend the adjustable length up until the 90° elbow reaches the chimney

pipe adapter. Screw the elbow to the adapter using the three 3/8” metal

screws provided.

5. Screw the two sections of the adjustable length together using at least one

3/8” metal screw provided.

MASONRY CHIMNEYS

Connecting to an existing masonry chimney with EXCELPrime requires a

masonry adapter (SWM).

To block off a vacant opening into a masonry chimney you can use the masonry

plug (SWMP). Follow step 1 below for installation.

1. Install the Masonry Adapter (SWM). Bend the tabs

outwards and press the Masonry Adapter firmly

into the existing thimble of the masonry chimney.

The tabs will secure it in place.

2. Insert a length of EXCELPrime into the opening of

the masonry adapter. The length should pass all

the way through the adapter and extend into the

flue of the masonry chimney. Secure the length in

place by screwing into the tabs on the masonry

adapter.

EXCELPRIME 5 Owner’s Manual

DAMPER INSTALLATION (UBD)

The damper (SWD) allows you to control the air drawn through the chimney

and controls your stove's

combustion.

When the handle is in the vertical

position, the damper is fully open,

allowing the maximum volume of

combustion gases to flow.

Rotating the handle restricts

combustion gas flow and slows the

combustion process in the stove.

Minimum setting is 20% open.

Rules to follow

•The damper must be installed in a

vertical run of EXCELPrime and never

on a horizontal run.

Installation

The SWD damper is installed like a normal

length of ULTRABlack.

1. Install a fixed section of EXCELPrime

onto the flue collar of the appliance and

secure using three 1/2" metal screws.

2. Install the SWD damper on this section

with the seam to the back, ensuring that

the handle is located to the right of the

chimney. Secure to the lower connector

using the three screws provided.

3. Complete the installation by following the instructions for either a vertical

chimney or a chimney with elbows.

Note: Plan the fixed and adjustable measurements that you will require in

advance. Adjustable or slip sections should always be installed above a SWD.

A slip section cannot be installed directly onto the SWD.

Barometric Damper Adapter

If adding a barometric damper to your system, the

Barometric Damper Adapter (SWBA) permits a

tee to connect to a barometric damper. Connect

the SWBA to the snout of the tee with the screws

provided and then connect barometric damper to

the opposite end of the SWBA.
