Step 1. Measure and record the

interior dimensions of the masonry

chimney and the height of the chimney

from the top, down to the top of the

fireplace.

Step 2. extend the Flex Liner from

its compressed length to its normal

length by pulling at the ends. Do not

extend flex liner beyond its normal

length. Attempting to do so may result

in damage to the liner.

Step 3. Secure a rope to the Flex

Puller and attach the Flex Puller to the

DuraFlex Liner. One person should

feed the liner through the chimney

from the top, while another should pull

the liner from the bottom, as shown

in Figure 5. The reason for using two

people is that care must be taken not

to tear the aluminum flex liner.

Step 4. After the Flex Liner is pulled

through the damper area, attach the

Flex Coupling to the end of the Flex

with sheet metal screws, then connect

it directly to the flue outlet on top of

the gas fireplace (Figure 12).
