INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR MASONRY APPLICATION
WARNING
:
Before starting the installation, the masonry chimney must be inspected by a qualified
sweep.
The following requirements must be respected:
1.
The chimney must be absolutely clear of any soot residue or creosote. Check for cracks, loose or 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.
5.
The clearances to combustible for the BISUMA or BISPMA and BISUMA30 or BISPMA30 connectors are 2" on the side and
bottom and 16" at the top.
6.
The connector parts are not necessary if the connection between the insulated length and the stainless steel liner is done
within the masonry chimney
.
nstallation
:
he chimney must be relined with a stainless steel liner model Tubinox or Projet SS of the same diameter as the outlet of the fireplace.
or connection at 45º angle, a special connector (BISUMA for the BIS Ultra fireplace or BISPMA for the BIS Panorama fireplace) must
be used to connect the liner to the insulated chimney. For connection at 30º, use the BISUMA30 or BISPMA30 connectors.
See typical installation illustrated below.
Follow these steps:
1-
Position the fireplace in its location. Temporarily install the
ASHT+ elbow on the top of the fireplace and, using a level, mark
with an oval the location where the flue liner will enter the
masonry chimney.
2-
In the middle of the oval, drill a hole in the masonry chimney at
45º or 30º.
3-
Increase the size of the hole until a 45º or 30º Tubinox liner
elbow can be easily slipped through.
4-
Slide the liner down from the top of the masonry chimney until
you reach the hole level.
5-
Slip through the hole a 45º or 30º liner elbow and connect it to
the liner.
6-
Add a small liner section to the liner elbow which will allow the
liner to extend at least 12” (measured at the top of the liner) from
the masonry chimney.
7-
Seal the opening around the liner with high temperature
refractory cement.
8-
The next steps must be done in the following order :
A .
Select the ASHT + length that will fit between the elbow and the
liner so that it will slide at least 2
"
over the liner section. (You
may need to cut the liner for a better fit).
B.
Take that section and the BISUMA or BISPMA (BISUMA30 or
MISPMA30) cover and slide it over the liner. Make sure you
have enough opening to be able to install the ASHT+ elbow
without difficulty.
C.
Install the 45º or 30º elbow on the fireplace.
D.
Slide the length section back down on the elbow and twist lock
the two together.
E.
Pull the cover down over the length and install the insulation pad
over the liner; be careful to cover the liner completely.
F.
Slide back the cover over the insulation and fix it in place using
the 3 metal screws supplied.
