MASONRY FIRE PLACE
The stove maybe installed on the hearth extension
of a masonry fireplace. In Canada a continuous
liner must be provided from the flue collar of the
stove to the top of the chimney. In the USA a con-
tinuous chimney flue is required. A minimum clear-
ance of 25” (635mm) is required to combustible
mantle and a minimum clearance of 14” (355mm) to
side trim, which extends less than 2” (50mm) from
the face of the fireplace. (See Section under
Minimum Clearances to Combustibles).
Before the installation the entire fireplace system
should be inspected for condition and code compli-
ance prior to connecting to the fireplace chimney.
Older fireplaces and chimneys may not have been
constructed to current-day codes.
The fireplace and chimney should be in, or brought
up to, acceptable conditions and proper clearances
should be met before connecting to the fireplace
chimney.
The size of the flue must be considered. If the fire-
place chimney is too large, a relining system may be
installed using an approved relining system.
Connection to a masonry chimney may be done by
breaching into the chimney from the front of the fire-
place, no less than 8” (200mm) above the bottom of
the first flue tile, by installing a stainless steel or
