optimal performance and safety. Refer to the appliance manufacturer’s
instructions to determine the requirements and limitations limitations with
respect to installation and use of the appliance. It is the responsibility of

It is not recommended to add any other offset when installing this adapter.
Doing so could influence the draft significantly and reduce the efficiency of
your appliance. The chimney system should have as little restriction as
possible. Once the installation is completed, your chimney should have a
minimum height of 15 feet (4.5 m). Note that in order to ensure optimal
draft, it is possible that you need to add some extra lengths to your
chimney.
IMPORTANT: The use of a firescreen is strongly discouraged when an offset
is installed on the chimney system of an appliance. The restriction that the
offset could cause increases the risk of smoke emanating from the door. For
all other restrictions related to the installation of a firescreen, please consult
the instruction sheet supplied with this option
