WARNING! Risk of Fire! You must maintain 2 in. (51

mm) air space clearance to insulation and other combus-

tible materials around the chimney system. Failure to do

so may cause overheating and fire.

Determine the chimney components needed to complete

your particular installation:
• Measure the total vertical height of the fireplace

installation from the base of the fireplace assembly to

the approximate location of the bottom of the termination

cap.

• Subtract the effective height of the fireplace assembly

(see Figure 8.2) from the total vertical height to determine

the overall height of the chimney installation.

• Create a schematic for your application similar to Figure

8.2 showing components required (referring to Table

8.1). Figure 8.1 identifies those components and where

used.

• Install a ceiling firestop whenever the chimney penetrates

a floor/ceiling.

NOTICE: A maximum of two pairs of offsets and returns

may be used.

CAUTION! Risk of Fire and/or Asphyxiation! DO

NOT connect this fireplace to a chimney flue servicing

another appliance.

DO NOT connect to any air distribu-

tion duct or system. These actions could cause over-

heating/fire in the chimney flue, or release of exhaust

fumes into the living areas.
