MASONRY CHIMNEY
Before using an existing masonry chimney, clean the
chimney, inspect the flue liner, and make any repairs
needed to be sure it is safe to use. As mentioned
previously, this appliance requires a continuous
stainless steel liner from the appliance collar to the
chimney cap. Make repairs before attaching the
stove. The connector stove pipe and fittings you
will need to connect directly to a masonry chimney
are detailed in the installation instructions. If the
fireplace chimney must go through a combustible
wall before entering the main chimney, consult
a qualified mason or chimney dealer regarding
proper materials that meet all local building and
fire authority codes. The installation must conform
to local building and fire codes and latest edition of
NFPA 211. If there is a cleanout opening in the base
of the chimney, close it tightly.
