Pacific energy FP25 LE Installation And Operating Instructions Manual Download Page 18

This appliance must be installed with a listed 6"(150mm) chimney system approved under the following stan-
dards: 

CAN-ULC S629(IN CANADA) OR UL 103HT(IN U.S.).

MAINTAIN CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES AS SPECIFIED IN THE CHIMNEY MANUFACTURERS 
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. YOU MUST FOLLOW THE CHIMNEY MANUFACTURER'S 
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION OF ALL CHIMNEY COMPONENTS. 

USE APPROPRIATE SUPPORTS, CAPS, FLASHING AND SHIELDS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE 
CHIMNEY MANUFACTURERS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

CAUTION: THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE FLOOR, WALL AND CEILING/ROOF MUST BE 
MAINTAINED.

NOTE: FOR ALL CHIMNEYS, YOU MUST USE THE MANUFACTURER'S FIREPLACE ANCHOR PLATE. - 

Some brands of Anchor Plate including ICC, do not sit flush with the top of the Fireplace and will require the 
installation of an Anchor Plate spacer. Part #FP30.7757. Ensure the Chimney Achor plate is fully engaged 
with the Fireplace's Flue Collar when using the Anchor Plate 
Spacer.

NOTE: The FP25 must be installed so the outlet of the 
chimney system is a minimum 15ft (4.6m) in height as 
measured from the base of the unit, up to a maximum 
height of 35' (10.7m). The chimney must be supported on 
lengths over 20' (6.1m). 

NOTE: 

 

Install all components to the chimney manufacturer's 
installation requirements. Consult your chimney supplier for 
installation advice.

1.  After locating the desired location and framing in the 

fireplace, use a plumb bob to line up the holes with the 
Flue Collar. Cut and frame square holes in all floors, 
ceilings, and roof that the chimney will pass through. 
Mount the firestops and radiation shields to the framing 
as per instructions. 

WARNING: A radiation shield/firestop must be used for 
each floor/wall the chimney passes through.

2.  Maintain a minimum 2"(51mm) clearance between the 

chimney and any combustible materials. Do not fill the 
space with insulation or any other combustible material. 
Install the insulation shields as required by code and all 
pieces necessary to prevent contact with combustible 
materials whenever passing through floors, ceilings or 
attic spaces.

3.  Install the pipe manufacturer's fireplace anchor/base 

plate by inserting it into the flue collar on the fireplace. 
We recommend sealing the joint with stove cement.  
Secure the anchor plate with stainless steel screws.
