CHIMNEY INFORMATION & REGULATIONS (Cont.)
Determining the Distance Between the Chimney and Combustibles (Continued)
Installers may find it convenient to create hole cut-out templates for pitches common to their area rather
than performing the calculations or using a trial "cut and measure" system for each installation.
Carefully read the specifications, as minimum clearances other than 2 inches are sometimes required by
the manufacturer. Maintain a minimum clearance of 2" or what the manufacturer requires,
whichever is
greater
.
Masonry Chimneys
If you are going to use an existing masonry chimney for your wood heating appliance make sure the
chimney is inspected and found in good and safe condition. If the existing chimney is not in good
condition repairs should be made before installation.
WARNING
:
Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another appliance.
Do not use makeshift compromises in the installation.
