CHIMNEY INSTALLATION
1. Assemble the first chimney section with the adaptor (provided by the chimney manufacturer) using three
¾” (19 mm) screws.
2. Screw this assembly to the fireplace using four ¾” (19 mm) screws.
3. Continue the installation following the instructions in the chimney manufacturer’s manual. (Figures #6
through #14)
4. To avoid overheating the walls of the enclosure, a minimum 2” (51 mm) clearance must be provided
between the chimney and any combustible materials.
5. The chimney must rise at least 3’ (914 mm) over its juncture with the roof and exceed by at least
2’ (610 mm) any wall, roof or building located within a radius of 10’ (3 m). Any length of chimney
exceeding the roof by 5’ (1.5 m) or more, must be braced using tie rods or guy wires. (Figure #6.1)
6. To limit creosote formation, it is strongly recommended that an empty enclosure space be left between the
chimney stack and the outer framing of the chimney. Make sure that at all times a minimum clearance of
2” (51 mm) separates the chimney and any combustible materials.
NOTE: Since May 1997, whatever the type of fireplace or building, safety standards require that the fireplace
and the full length of an interior chimney up to the ceiling be enclosed.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR MASONRY APPLICATION
WARNING: Before starting 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 connector parts are not necessary if the connection between the insulated length and the stainless steel
liner is done within the masonry chimney.
