WARNING
4.1 chimney
Your appliance may be connected to a factory built or masonry chimney. If you are using a factory built chimney,
it must comply with ULCS629 (Canada) or UL103 (USA) standards. It must therefore be a 6" (152mm) HT Type
(2100°F) chimney. It is extremely important that it be installed according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
The manufacturer’s installation instructions and specified clearances should always be followed in accordance with
local and national codes. In Canada the CSA B365 and the CSA C22.1 installation codes are to be followed. In
the USA the ANSI NFPA 70 and ANSI NFPA 211 installation codes are to be followed.
Chimney and chimney connector must be in good condition and kept clean.
NEVER INSTALL A SINGLE WALL SLIP SECTION OR SMOKE PIPE IN A CHASE STRUCTURE.
THE HIGHER TEMPERATURE OF THIS SINGLE WALL PIPE MAY RADIATE SUFFICIENT HEAT TO
COMBUSTIBLE CHASE MATERIALS TO CAUSE A FIRE.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS APPLIANCE TO A CHIMNEY SYSTEM SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
TO AVOID DANGER OF FIRE, ALL INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE STRICTLY FOLLOWED, INCLUDING
THE PROVISION OF AIR SPACE CLEARANCE BETWEEN CHIMNEY SYSTEM AND ENCLOSURE. TO
PROTECT AGAINST THE EFFECTS OF CORROSION ON THOSE PARTS EXPOSED TO THE
WEATHER, WE RECOMMEND THAT THE CHASE TOP BE PAINTED WITH A RUST-RESISTANT PAINT.
DO NOT FILL ANY FRAMED SPACE AROUND THE CHIMNEY WITH INSULATION OR ANY OTHER
MATERIAL. INSULATION PLACED IN THIS AREA COULD CAUSE ADJACENT COMBUSTIBLES
TO OVERHEAT.
MAINTAIN A MINIMUM 2” (50.8mm) AIR CLEARANCE TO ALL PARTS OF THE CHIMNEY SYSTEM AT
ALL TIMES. (THIS EXCLUDES THE CHIMNEY CONNECTION).
FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THIS 2” (50.8mm) AIR CLEARANCE WILL CAUSE A STRUCTURE FIRE.
NEVER FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.
DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION OF THE CHASE TOP, STORM COLLAR AND
TERMINATION CAP ARE PACKAGED WITH THESE PARTS.
DO NOT CUT RAFTERS OR CEILING JOISTS WITHOUT FIRST CONSULTING A BUILDING
OFFICIAL TO ENSURE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY IS NOT COMPROMISED.
FIRESTOP SPACERS MUST BE USED WHENEVER THE CHIMNEY PENETRATES A CEILING/FLOOR
AREA.
THE TOTAL HORIZONTAL VENT LENGTH SHOULD NOT EXCEED 40% OF THE CHIMNEY HEIGHT
ABOVE THE APPLIANCE. ALL HORIZONTAL SMOKE PIPE MUST SLOPE SLIGHTLY UPWARDS
A MINIMUM OF 1/4” (6.4mm) PER FOOT AND ALL CONNECTIONS MUST BE TIGHT AND
SECURED BY THREE SHEET METAL SCREWS EQUALLY SPACED. AN UNINSULATED
SMOKE PIPE SHALL NOT PASS THROUGH AN ATTIC, ROOF SPACE, CLOSET OR SIMILAR
CONCEALED SPACE, OR THROUGH A FLOOR, CEILING, WALL OR PARTITION, OR ANY
COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTIONS.
DO NOT USE ANY MAKESHIFT MATERIALS DURING INSTALLATION.
