INSTALLATION

Offset Chart

Diagram 13

Notes:

a) For multistorey vertical installations, a

Ceiling Fire stop (Part # 963) is required

at the second floor, and any subse-

quent floor. Diagram 13. The opening

should be framed to 10 " x 10" (254mm

x 254mm) inside dimensions, in the

same manner as shown in diagram 10.

b) Any occupied areas above the first floor,

including closets and storage spaces,

through which the vertical flue passes,

must be enclosed.

CATHEDRAL CEILINGS

Round Support (RDS) &

Square Support (SQS)

If your home has a cathedral ceiling (no attic

space between the ceiling and the roof), install

the chimney and support as follows.

1) Situate the chimney in a convenient loca-

tion as near as possible to the appliance

outlet. Cut and frame a hole in the roof for

the support. The sides of this hole must be

vertical with 1 1/4" (32mm) clearance.

2) Place the support in the opening. Lower it

to the correct height as determined by the

table and diagram below.

Using a level, make sure the support is

vertical. If the support extends above the

roof, cut it flush with the top of the roof. Nail

the support to the frame opening using (8)

3" (76mm) spiral nails or #8 x 1-1/2" (38mm)

screws.

Note: If you are using a 6" square sup-

port you may find it difficult to

screw it in place because it is fairly

small inside.

Simpson Dura-Flue has provided angle

brackets with this support which can be

screwed to the outside of the support box

and nailed to surrounding framing as re-

quired. Use a minimum of four #8 x 1/2"

(13mm) screws per bracket. In some

cases these brackets may need to be

trimmed (e.g.: to fit under a flashing). Place

the Finish Collar around the support and

fasten it to the ceiling using the screws

provided.

3) Use appropriate roof flashing. Place the

flashing under the upper shingles and on

top of the lower shingles approximately half

of the flashing should be under the shin-

gles.

4) Assemble the desired lengths of Black Pipe

and Elbows necessary to reach from the

appliance adaptor up through the support

box and flashing to proper height as per Dia.

12, local codes or page 9. Ensure that all

pipe and elbow connections are in their fully

twist lock position.

5) Ensure flue is vertical and secure flashing

to the roof with roofing nails. Slide the storm

collar over the pipe section and seal with a

mastic.

6) Twist lock the flue cap on to the last section.

Support Extensions - Round

(RDSE) or Square (SQSE)

Steep pitched cathedral ceilings may require

the use of a support extension. This piece fits

down inside the support and can be adjusted

to increase the support's length by up to 22"

(559mm). The extension is attached to the

support using the eight metal screws provided.

Be sure there is at least a 2 inch overlap where

the extension joins the support.
