could cause fire.
Prior to installing the gas appliance:

professionals, or technicians under the direction of certi-

fied professionals, conduct a minimum of a NFPA 211

Level 2 inspection of the chimney.

• Replace component parts of the chimney and fireplace

as specified by the professionals.

• Ensure all joints are properly engaged and the chimney

is properly secured.
