SHR Series Woodburning Fireplaces
20001384
Firestop spacers are not available for, nor are they
required on, vertical walls.
The chimney components (CF11) used on the SHR
series fireplaces have been tested and approved with
the area where the outer pipe slides through the
firestop spacer sealed with a noncombustible caulk if
desired, or left completely open with no sealant. This
sealing only applies to the SHR series fireplace.
Continue Installing Pipe to Complete Run
Continue attaching pipe sections to complete system to
next level always being careful that the pipe is firmly
snap locked in place before proceeding to next pipe
section.
Chimney Supports
If chimney supports are required, they are installed the
same as elbows. Nail chimney support straps to
adjacent structural framing, as shown in Figure 8, Page
8. Bend straps as necessary and make sure they are
secure so they will support the weight of the chimney. A
chimney support is 2
¹⁄₂
" long when installed. Consider
this dimension when determining how many straight
chimney sections are needed.
Note: Chimney supports are generally used in long
runs in a chase installation.
Additional Ceilings
If you encounter additional ceilings, repeat same steps
required for first ceiling installation. Refer to firestop
illustration on Page 12, Figure 20.
Penetrating the Roof
Run pipe to roofline. Since chimney system must be
vented to the out-of-doors, you must use an approved
termination.
If a chase is used, refer to the installation manual
provided with the termination cap.
Locate Chimney Centerpoint on Roof
Use same procedure detailed in locating center point of
the flue system.
Drive a nail up through roof at the center point. This will
determine center point on outside of the roof.
Cut and Frame Roof Hole
Size of roof hole varies with the type of chimney
termination installed. Refer to installation instructions
provided with the chimney termination to find correct
size roof hole.
There must be a 2" (52mm) air space between outer-
most portion of chimney sections and any adjacent
combustible surfaces. (Combustible surfaces include
burnable materials such as: ceiling members, joists,
flooring, combustible insulation and roof structures.)
WARNING: DO NOT PACK REQUIRED AIR SPACES
WITH INSULATION OR OTHER MATERIALS.
Mark an outline of the roof hole around the centerpoint
of the nail. NOTE: Hole dimensions given in the chim-
ney top installation instructions are horizontal dimen-
sions; therefore, the hole size must be marked on the
roof accordingly.
Cover the opening of the installed chimney so debris
cannot get into the system.
Cut and frame the hole. It is good practice to use
framing lumber that is the same size as the rafters.
Install the frame securely because the chimney top and
flashing anchored to the frame must be able to with-
stand heavy winds.
Install Remainder of Chimney Sections
Since you have already preplanned the height of your
termination according to the
Ten Foot Rule, continue to
install pipe to the predetermined height.
Check the chimney top installation instructions for
details on how high above the roof top the chimney
sections (all pipes) should extend.
