masonrY Fireplace installation:
Unless you are experienced, we recommend installation by your dealer or a
professional installer.
Install only in a masonry replace with a good-condition chimney at least 15 ft (4.6 m) high, both of
which have been constructed in accordance with the building code. Refer to Tables 4 and 7 for minimum
masonry replace dimensions. Be sure the replace and chimney are clean and sound without any cracks
or loose mortar. Do not remove any bricks or mortar from the replace.
If there is a combustible oor in front of the
masonry replace, the replace insert must
be 8” (203 mm) above the combustible
oor, and oor protection must be provided
18” (457 mm) in front of the replace insert
and 8” (203 mm) to each side of the unit.

in a permanent open position.

a 6” stainless steel liner that goes directly to
the top of the chimney and is covered with
a rain cap. The chimney top is sealed with
a ashing or steel plate that supports the
weight of the chimney liner. The installation
must conform to the liner’s manufacturer’s
instructions.
This replace must be installed with a
continuous liner of 6” diameter (CANADA

insert to the top of the chimney. The
chimney liner must conform to the Class 3
requirements of CAN/ULC-S635 Standard
for Lining Systems for Existing Masonry or
Factory-Built Chimneys and Vents, or CAN/
ULC-S640 Standard for Lining Systems for
New Masonry Chimneys.
(IN U.S.A.)The appliance when installed,
must follow local building codes, in the
absence of local building codes, with the
current NFPA 211 Standard for Chimneys,
Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel-Burning
Appliances.
