After reaching the location requiring the elbow, proceed as follows:
1. To insure a good draft, it is recommended, to have a length of 18 inches (457 mm) from the top of the
unit to the first offset. Install the first elbow; turn it in the required direction. Secure it to the chimney
according to the chimney manufacturer’s instructions. In many cases, it is recommended to secure
connections with three (3) ½" (12 mm) metal screws.
2. Install the necessary chimney lengths to achieve the required offset. Lock the chimney lengths together
according to the chimney manufacturer’s instructions. In many cases, it is recommended to use three
(3) ½" (12 mm) metal screws. If the offset length is made of two (2) chimney lengths or more, many
chimney manufacturers may require that you use an offset or roof support halfway up the offset. If
penetrating a wall, install a wall radiation shield supplied by the chimney manufacturer.
3. Use another elbow to turn the chimney vertically. Secure the elbow.
4. Use a plumb bob to line up the centre of the hole. Cut a hole for the chimney in the ceiling/floor. Frame
this hole as described previously.
5. From below, install a firestop supplied by the chimney manufacturer.
6. A support must be used on the first 15' section (4.6 m).
7. Continue with the regular installation.

WARNING
BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION, THE MASONRY CHIMNEY MUST BE INSPECTED BY A

missing bricks that could inhibit correct installation of the liner.
2. The clearance to combustible must be a minimum of 1" between the outside of the masonry and any
wood framing or loose insulation.
3. The chimney must be built in accordance with the current building code.
4. No other appliance can be connected to the same chimney.

THE CHIMNEY MUST BE RELINED WITH A STAINLESS STEEL LINER OF THE SAME
DIAMETER AS THE OUTLET OF THE FIREPLACE.
