       WARNING 

If insulation is used, the fireplace 

must  not  be  placed  directly 

against  it.  Insulation  or  vapor 

barriers, if used, must first be 

covered  with  drywall  panels, 

plywood, particle board or other 

material to assure insulation and 

vapor barriers remain in place.

       WARNING 

Do not pack or fill required air 

spaces with insulation or other 

material. No material is allowed 

in these areas.

AC chimney should not be used in cold areas, 

where temperatures are likely to fall below 32° 

F (0° C), or altitudes above 4000 feet.

A chimney venting a fireplace shall not vent any 

other appliance.

The  minimum  system  heights  are  indicated 

in 

Table 1

.

In altitude, add 18" (450mm) to the chimney for 

every 2000 feet (600 m) above sea level.

All chimney installations must include at least 

one support.  The maximum length of chimney 

that can be supported by the fireplace is 12 feet 

(3.6 m) for S-2100+, 18 feet (5.4 m) for ASHT+ 

and 26 feet (8 m) for AC chimney.

The  chimney  must  extend  at  least  3  feet 

(915mm) above its point of contact with the 

roof and at least  2 feet (610mm) higher than 

any wall, roof or building within 10 feet (3 m) 

of it (

see Figure 15)

.

If  the  chimney  extends  higher  than  5  feet 

(1500mm) above its point of contact with the 

roof, it must be secured using a roof brace 

or guide wires.

A rain cap must be installed on top of the chim-

ney.  Failure to install a rain cap may cause the 

fireplace to corrode and operate inefficiently.

Cut and frame square holes in all floors and 

the  roof  to  provide  a  2"  (50mm)  clearance 

between  the  chimney  and  any  combustible 

materials.    Do  not  fill  this  2"  (50mm)  space 

with any material.

Portions  of  the  chimney  which  may  extend 

through accessible spaces must be enclosed 

to avoid contact with combustible materials or 
damage the chimney.

CHIMNEY SYSTEM

The ME43 fireplace is listed only with Security 
Chimneys™  International  Ltd.  chimney  sys-

tems, models ASHT+ 8", S-2100+ 8", or AC 

8".  

Do not connect the fireplace to a masonry 

chimney,  chimney  liner,  or  other  brand  of 

factory-built chimney.

In areas with continuous temperatures below 

0º F (-18º C), the use of an exterior chimney 

increases the likelihood of operating problems 

such as low draft, high rate of creosoting and 

poor start up characteristics.  Exterior chim-

neys are also prone to down-drafting and flow 

reversal.  Installations located in a basement, 

in  combination  with  outside  chimneys,  are 

especially prone to flow reversal.  In cold areas, 

air cooled chimneys should not be used in an 

exterior installation.

*Construction Materials:

 

• framing materials  • paneling

 

• particle board 

• flooring

 

• dry wall 

• etc.

 

• plywood 

Note:

    2"  clearance  to  combustibles  around 

chimney components required.

Note:  Do  not  insulate  the  chase  cavity  with 

blown or fill type insulation materials.

Note: Local codes may not require firestopping 

at the ceiling levels for outside chase installa-

tions. However, it is recommended for safety 

and the reduction of heat loss.

Chimney Height

The  total  height  of  your  completed  fireplace 

system from the surface the fireplace rests on to 

the chimney top must not exceed 60' and must 

also meet minimum height requirements. Refer 

to the minimum system height chart.
