CHIMNEY
CAUTION:
DO NOT fill any framed space around the factory-built chimney with insulation or any
other material. Insulation placed in this area could cause adjacent combustibles to
overheat.
Do not use makeshift compromises during installation as they may be safety hazards, and
a fire could result.
Do not connect this unit to a chimney system serving another appliance.
Do not cut rafters or ceiling joists without first consulting a building official to ensure
structural integrity is not compromised.
