Locating Insert
Use a Class A stainless steel 6” diameter chimney liner that reaches to the top of your chimney. The
minimum height of a chimney system for the D.S. Fireplace Insert is 20 feet. The chimney must exceed
the roof of a house at a minimum of 3 feet at any point of exit. In a pitched roof installation the chimney
must be 2 feet higher than anything within a 10 foot radius of the chimney. It is important to have a
chimney draft of 0.06 water column. It is required to abide by the manufacturer’s instructions on Class A
chimneys as well as local building codes. It is not recommended to build a chimney on an addition that is
lower than the main part of your house. Never connect this unit to a chimney serving another appliance.
Should you have a problem with inadequate draft you should see page 11.

combustible materials away
from the insert.
Liner Hookup To Insert
You will need to attach an appliance
adapter on the bottom end of your liner. Then
you can either put 3 screws in the exhaust
collar of the insert from the outside top of the
insert or from the inside of the firebox. To
access the exhaust collar from the inside of
the insert you will need to remove the coal
hopper and baffle.
