ODYSSEY SERIES FIREPLACE WITH GAS LOG SET
2. Installing a Termination Cap on a Chase Enclosed
Chimney
Construct a chase of desired materials maintaining a
minimum 2 air space around the chimney.
WARNING!
Detailed instructions for installation of the chase
top, storm collar and termination cap are packaged
with these parts. To avoid danger of fire, all instruc-
tions must be strictly followed, including the provi-
sion of air space clearance between chimney sys-
tem and enclosure. To protect against the effects
of corrosion on those parts exposed to the weather,
we recommend that the chase top and termination
cap be painted with a rust-resistant paint.
WARNING!
Never install a single wall slip section or smoke-
pipe in a chase structure. The higher temperature
of this single wall pipe may radiate sufficient heat
to combustible chase materials to cause a fire.
Install the chimney sections up through the chase
enclosure. When using a round termination cap (TR344),
the uppermost top flashing section of pipe must extend
above the top of the chase collar to allow installation of
the storm collar and termination cap.
For installations utilizing a telescoping round termination
cap (TR342), the uppermost chimney section must be
below the top of the chase top, but not more than 14½
below the top of the chase top flashing collar. See
Figure 21.
For installations utilizing a square termination cap
(ST375), the last chimney section must not be more than
4¾ below the chase top.
When installing a TS345 square termination, the
uppermost chimney section must be no less than 3
below the top of the chase top or more than 2 above the
top of the chase top.
Attach the chase top (CT35) to the top of the chase.
Install the termination cap, using the instructions provided
with it.

WARNING!
Do not operate this fireplace with the flue damper in the
closed position. Combustion products must vent up the
chimney system to prevent carbon monoxide poison-
ing, and to prevent hot combustion gases from con-
tacting and overheating combustible surfaces. Failure
to operate this fireplace with the damper in the open
position may result in asphyxiation or a structure fire.
