Chimney Installation
•
Each brand of chimney has a slightly different outside diameter. To accommodate this, the
fireplace has three "L" brackets (outer liner connectors) on the top of the fireplace can. Center
a section of chimney over the chimney opening and mark the exterior location of the chimney.
Reposition the "L" brackets, if necessary, so they are adjacent the exterior of the chimney (see
Figure 19).
Outer Pipe Brackets
Use sheet metal screws to attach
the outer liner to these brackets.
Inner Liner (ledge along
inside accepts differed
sized chimney pipes)
If the outer pipe does not line up
with the brackets, remove the
brackets and re-attach them to
the top of the fireplace.
Connect the inner pipe to
the inner liner with three
sheet metal screws.
Figure 19
•
When attaching the chimney to the fireplace, first slide down the inner liner of the chimney
pipe into the inner liner of the fireplace. Certain brands of chimney pipe will stop at the ledge,
while others will insert beyond the ledge. When the chimney pipe is fully seated and aligned,
drill three holes in the chimney pipe where it lines up with the holes in the fireplace inner liner.
Secure the fireplace to the chimney pipe with three sheet metal screws. If there are any large
gaps between the chimney pipe and fireplace, use furnace cement to seal (allow 24 hours to
dry before burning the fireplace).
•
Depending on the manufacturer and where the chimney is to be installed, chimney supports,
roof braces, radiation shields, attic insulation shields, attic enclosures, spark arrestors, locking
bands, etc... may be required as part of the chimney system. The manufacturer's installation
instructions, which are reviewed by the listing agency, specifies when and where each of these
components must be used. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the use of flashing and an
adjustable storm collar at the roof line to prevent water from entering the house. Manufacturers
require that chimneys extending beyond a certain height above the roof (frequently above 5')
must also be braced.
