A. VENTING FIREPLACE INSERTS
The ENVIROGAS 828 insert may be installed and vented into
any solid fuel fireplace that has been installed in accordance
with the National, Provincial/State and local building codes and
has been constructed of non-combustible materials.
An approved 4" chimney liner, throat connector, and rain cap
must be installed, to ensure a tight seal, top performance,
safety
and efficiency. Carefully follow the manufacturers instructions
which accompany the chimney liner kit.
Measure the height of the chimney beforehand and purchase
the appropriate kit. Never attempt to over stretch a flexible
liner to accommodate the height of the chimney.

through chimney.
Any flue damper must be removed or blocked permanently in
the open position.
