ME150 - Installation and Operation Manual
2 INSTALLATION
This fireplace is designed and approved for installation with the brand of chimney mentioned in TABLE 1
with a minimum of 15’ (4.6 m) and maximum of 45’ (13.5 m) in height.
No other device must be added to the chimney connected to the fireplace.
Choose the best location for your fireplace based on the position of the doors and windows. Provide for the
positioning of the outside air inlet as well as the chimney. Remember to leave sufficient space for the
hearth extension and mantel. If possible, install the fireplace where it will not be necessary to cut any floor
or ceiling joists.
As for the chimney’s configuration, there are several possibilities. See Figure bellow to determine the
appropriate configuration for your home. The straighter the chimney, the easier it will be to clean and
maintain.
