INSTALLATION
Chimney Specifications
Before installing, check and clean your chimney system
thoroughly. If in doubt about its condition, seek expert
advice. Your Masport In-built fireplace is designed for
installation into a masonry fireplace that is constructed
in accordance with the requirements of "The Standard
for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel Burning
Appliance", N.F.P.A. 211, AS 4013 , and NZS 7402 or
the applicable local code requirements.
Masport In-built Fireplaces are designed with a 6"
(150mm) flue but a 7"(180mm) or 8"(200mm) flue liner
or flue connector may be used.
Installation in "0" Clearance Factory
Built Fireplace
The Ontario In-built Fireplace (I2101M) and Vancouver
In-built Fireplace (I3101L) have been tested and
approved to be vented into any approved "0" clearance
Factory Built Fireplace that will accommodate your
Masport unit.
IMPORTANT: If the Ontario or Vancouver unit is
being installed into a factory built fireplace, check
that factory variations of the "0" clearance fireplace
will allow the in-built fireplace to physically fit into
the firebox.
If the factory built fireplace height is too low for your
in-built fireplace, you may remove the smoke shelf,
baffle plate and damper plate from the factory built
fireplace as long as these items are saved and are
re-installed in the event that the in-built fireplace is
removed.

Before Installing Your
In-built Fireplace
1) Read all instructions before installing and using your
in-built fireplace. Install and use only in accordance
with manufacturer’s installation and operating
instructions.
2) Check your local building codes - Building Inspection
Department. You may require a permit before
installing your in-built fireplace. Be aware that local
codes and regulations may override some items in
the manual.
WARNING: Careless installation is the major
cause of safety hazard. Check all local building
and safety codes before installation of unit.
3) Notify your home insurance company that you plan
to install a in-built fireplace or hearth heater.
4) Your in-built fireplace is heavy and requires two or
more people to move it safely. The in-built fireplace
can be badly damaged by mishandling.
5) If your existing fireplace damper control will become
inaccessible once you have installed your Masport
In-built Fireplace, you should either remove or secure
it in the open position.
6) Inspect your fireplace and chimney prior to installing
your in-built fireplace to determine that it is free from
cracks, loose mortar or other signs of damage. If
repairs are required, they should be completed
before installing your in-built fireplace. Do not
remove bricks or mortar from your masonry fireplace.
7) Do not connect the in-built fireplace to a chimney
system servicing another appliance or an air
distribution duct.
