INTAKE AIR REQUIREMENTS
FIREPLACE CHIMNEY REQUIREMENTS
A properly installed and maintained venting system is critical to the safe operation of your wood insert. This
insert may be connected, with a liner, to a
masonry fireplace
that meets the standards of NFPA 211 or may
be connected, with a liner, to a
factory-built fireplace
that meets the standards of UL127. When choosing
the location for your insert, decide on a central location in the main living area of the home. Uninhabited
areas of the home such as an uninsulated basement or a garage would be an inefficient location for the
heater. Also consider not placing the chimney too close to your neighbors or in a valley that would cause a
nuisance or unhealthy outdoor air quality. For proper draft, the chimney must exit the roof a minimum of 3
feet and at least 2 feet above any portion of the roof that is within 10 feet of the chimney.
