Install Remainder of Chimney Sections
Since you have already preplanned the height of your
termination according to the Ten Foot Rule, continue to
install pipe to the predetermined height.
Check the chimney top installation instructions for
details on how high above the roof top the chimney sec-
tions (all pipes) should extend.
Installing Top Housing
or Termination
Follow the installation instructions provided with the
chimney termination you have selected.
Installing Chimney In a Chase
Refer to Page 5, Figure 5 for an illustration of a typical
chase installation.
CAUTION: Treatment of firestop spacers and construc-
tion of chase may vary with type of building. These
instructions are not a substitute for local building codes.
You must check your local building codes to determine
specific requirements for your city or state. NOTE:
Other building materials may be required in addition to
Firestop Spacers.
Finishing
CAUTION: All joints between the finished wall and
the fireplace surround (top/sides) must be sealed with
noncombustible material to prevent cold air leakage into
the room. Only noncombustible material may be applied
to the facing of the fireplace surround. (Black painted
area) (Fig. 20)
Finish Wall
Finish the wall with material of your choice. Do not
install a combustible mantel shelf less than 12"
(305mm) from the top of the fireplace opening for
radiant models and 12" (305mm) from top of grille
opening for circulating models. Do not install a
mantel face plate less than 6" (159mm) from top
of fireplace opening for radiant models and 6"
(159mm) from top of grille opening for circulating
models. (Fig. 22) If a combustible material is used be-
low a flat mantel shelf, consult your local building codes
for minimum clearance from top of fireplace opening to
bottom of mantel shelf.
All joints (top, bottom and sides) where wall or deco-
rative facing material meets fireplace surround must
be completely sealed with a noncombustible material.
(Figures 21 and 22)
NOTE: No side wall protection is required for fireplaces
installed at 45° to two (2) side walls (corner installation).
