Vermont Castings Vigilant

2000898

If the Vigilant is installed in a corner (corner installation)

and no shields are used, the corners of the stove must

be at least 16” (410 mm) from nearby walls. (Fig. 6)

Measure these distances from the edge of the top plate

of the stove nearest the wall to the combustible part of

the wall.

Unshielded single wall chimney connectors must be a

minimum of 17” (430 mm) from the wall or ceiling.

Clearances With Only the

Stove Rear Heat Shield

If you install a Vigilant with a rear heat shield in a

parallel installation, but use no chimney connector heat

shields, different clearances will be required for top-exit-

ing and rear-exiting stoves.

For top-exiting stoves, clearance to the rear wall is

determined by heat from the unshielded chimney con-

nector, not heat from the stove. Stove placement must

ensure that the unshielded connector cannot overheat

the rear wall. Reminder: Use the Flue Collar Heat

Shield (#140-0924) included with the Rear Heat Shield

#0175 to protect the area directly behind the ﬂue collar.

Rear clearance must be a minimum of 20” (510 mm),

measured from the edge of the stove top to the rear

wall. Side clearance is determined by heat from the

stove. It must be a minimum of 18” (460 mm) , mea-

sured from the edge of the stove top to the combustible

component of the unprotected wall. (Fig. 7)

For rear-exiting stoves, both rear and side clearances

are determined by the heat from the stove (provided

that the connector does not pass near a combustible

surface).

The rear heat shield protects the wall behind the stove

so that clearance may be reduced to 13” (330 mm),

measured from the rear edge of the stove’s top plate

to the combustible part of the wall. Side clearance re-

mains the same — 18”, measured from the edge of the

stove top to the side wall. (Fig. 8)

For corner instllations, the clearance is 16”, measured

Clearances With Double-wall Connectors,

Or Single-wall Connectors And Connector

Heat Shields

The Vigilant II Coal Stove listing includes using single-

wall or double-wall chimney connectors. The rows

of the clearance chart labelled “Chimney Connector

Clearance” give clearances measured from the chim-

ney connector to nearby walls and ceilings. (“Ceilings”

is emphasized to remind you that ceiling clearance is

an important clearance that is sometimes overlooked.)

Be sure to double-check chimney connector clearances

before completing your installation.

Reminder: For top-exiting stoves using a rear heat

shield, install the Flue Collar Heat Shield (#140-0924),

included with the Rear Heat Shield #0175, to protect

the area directly behind the ﬂue collar. Instructions are

included with the heat shield package.

When using a chimney connector heat shield on a

single-wall connector, it may only extend 24” (610 mm)

above the ﬂue collar. The shield must come down to

meet the top of the Flue Collar Heat Shield. (Fig. 9)
