SECTION II
MASONRY INSERT INSTALLATION
The Model 81 may be installed using an all masonry fireplace built in accordance with the
Uniform Building Code and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). The first step in
this type of installation is to determine acceptability of fireplace and chimney for use with a
woodstove. Both construction and condition of fireplace are important consid-
erations when installing a woodstove. The chimney should extend at least 3' above roof and
at least 2' above any point of roof within 10'.
CAUTION
REMEMBER TO HAVE YOUR CHIMNEY INSPECTED FOR LEAKS AND BLOCKAGE
BEFORE YOU INSTALL YOUR STOVE. “DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A
CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.”
