FIREPLACE TOP
For a masonry fireplace use a flue tile support. For a pre-
fabricated chimney use an anchor plate.
In no case is the masonry
enclosure to be sup-
ported by the NZ26 fire-
place. Allow a 1" (one inch)
air cavity for expansion.
The Napoleon Model NZ26 may be connected to either a
lined or unlined masonry chimney.
IF THE CHIMNEY IS
LINED,
the flues
must be made of vitri-
fied clay and be in
sizes of 8" square, 8" x
12", or 8" round with a
minimum height of 11
feet above the fire-
place. Eight inch round
flues are recom-
mended. Installation
must conform to both
national and local
code requirements.
IF THE CHIMNEY IS UNLINED,
a stainless steel liner
listed to either Standard ULC-S640M in Canada or UL-
1777 in the USA: Liners for New Masonry Chimneys, may
be used to connect the fireplace to the chimney. The liner
must be continuous from the fireplace to the chimney cap
and be installed only per manufacturers instructions.
Figure 17. In both cases, the chimney structure must be
supported by angle iron anchored into the masonry
walls. Figures 17 & 18. The allowable masonry used in
chimney construction is 3-1/2" brick, solidly mortared and
fully encasing the flue. Ensure there are no leaks.

Attach the handle as shown so
that when the door is closed, the
handle will be centred in the slot
located on the fireplace front. To
achieve this you may have to ex-
periment (on the upper and lower
screws) with one of the variations
shown. Tighten securely.
