Do not seal openings on the rooftop flashing.
Foil ow the installation instructions provided with the
termination being used.
Tem1inations with 16" slip pipe sections are available. The
RTT-8DM and RTTL-8DM are approved for flashing
installations. When needed, these adjustable te1111inations may
be used in combination with the pipe assembly to achieve the
correct chimney height.
NOTE:
In the rare instance there is a problem with the side
driven rain or wind or the chimney is not drafting properly, an
ADS-8DM Anti Draft Shield can be used with round
tem1inations.
CHASE INSTALLATIONS
Instructions for chase i,·, tallations are included with the chase
style termination chosen. In a multiple chase installation, be
sure to provide adequate distance between terminations to
prevent smoke spillage from one termination to another. We
suggest that terminations be separated at least 24 inches,
center to center and stacked at vertical height difference of 18
inches (see figure 15).

FINISHING THE FIREPLACE
Combustible materials, such as wallboard, gypsum board,
sheet rock, d1ywall, plywood, etc. may make direct contact
with sides and top periphery of the fireplace face. It is
important that combustible materials do not overlap the face
itself. Brick, glass, tile or other non-combustible materials
may overlap the front face provided they do not obstruct
essential openings like louvered slots or any other opening.
When overlapping with a non-combustible facing material,
use only non-combustible mortar or adhesive.
