typical existing masonry

You can install your appliance using your existing masonry
chimney. To do so, use the following guidelines. If you are using a
masonry chimney, it is important that it be built in compliance with
the specifications of the Building Code in your region. It
must normally be lined with fire clay bricks, metal or clay
tiles sealed together with fire cement. (Round flues are
the most efficient).
A. Remove the fi replace damper or fasten it permanently open.
note:
It is recommended to folow the method of sealing off the damper area around the liner.
B. Measure the throat of the fi replace and mark this shape on a piece of 24 gauge (0.6mm) sheet metal
(fl ue cover). Cut a 6" (152.4mm) hole to lie directly below the fi replace fl ue opening. Allow 2" (50.8mm) of
material on all sides (to act as fl anges) and cut to these measurements. Bend down the fl anges.
TIP: If inexperienced in doing this, make and test a cardboard pattern fi rst.
Fasten this fl ue cover in position as high as possible. Using 2 masonry screws per side, insert them
through the fl anges into the fi replace.
C. Permanently seal any openings between the fi replace masonry and the facing masonry.
In Canada: This fi replace insert must be installed with a continuous chimney liner of 6" (152.4mm) diameter
extending from the fi replace insert to the top of the chimney. The chimney liner must conform to the Class 3
requirements of CAN/ULC-S635, Standard for Lining Systems for Existing Masonry or Factory-Built Chimneys and
Vents, or CAN/ULC-S640, Standard for Lining Systems for New Masonry Chimneys. It must be installed as follows:
A. Attach a stainless steel liner connector or elbow to the liner, and insert onto the fl ue collar.
B. Fasten with 3 screws.
C. Secure the top of the liner to the chimney cap using a liner support and chimney fl ashing.
D. Cap the top of the chimney liner assembly using an approved rain cap.
