Chase installations
Instructions for chase installations 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. Terminations must
be separated a minimum of 30" center to cen-
ter and stacked at a minimum vertical height
difference of 18" (see Figure 22).
Note: If a decorative shroud is to be installed,
contact the manufacturer for specifications.
Figure 23 - 10 Foot Rule
OPTIONAL GAS LINE INSTALLATION
10 FOOT RULE
All chimney terminations must extend a mini-
mum of 3' above the highest point where it
passes through the roof and must be at least
2' above roof with a 10' horizontal span (see
Figure 23).
FINISHING FIREPLACE
Combustible materials, such as wallboard,
gypsum board, sheet rock, drywall, plywood,
etc. may directly contact sides and top front
edge at nailing flanges of fireplace face. It is
important that combustible materials do not
overlap the face itself. Brick, glass, tile or
other noncombustible materials may overlap
the front face provided they do not obstruct
louvered slots or any other opening. When
overlapping with a noncombustible facing
material, use only noncombustible mortar
or adhesive appropriate for the particular
installation.
WARNING: A qualified
service person must connect
fireplace to gas supply. Follow
all local codes.
NOTICE:
Before you proceed, make sure your
gas supply is turned off.
A gas line may be installed for the purpose
of installing a vented or vent-free decorative
gas appliance available through your local
distributor. Use only gas piping approved
by local codes. When installing a gas line, a
shutoff valve designed for installation outside
the appliance is recommended.
The gas pipe is intended for connection to a
decorative gas appliance that operates using
natural or propane/LP gas only. This appliance
must have an automatic shutoff device and
must comply with the
Standard for Decora-
tive Gas Appliances for Installation in Vented
Fireplace, ANSI Z21.60
. ONLY UNVENTED
GAS LOG SETS WHICH HAVE BEEN
FOUND TO COMPLY WITH THE STANDARD
FOR UNVENTED ROOM HEATERS, ANSI
Z21.11.2, ARE TO BE INSTALLED IN THIS
FIREPLACE.
