• Check local/regional building codes for compliance.

 

 

• Construct ouside wall of chase as you would the outside

 

 

walls of the building to prevent cold air drafting problems.

Figure 27.2 - Chase Assembly

 

The chase should not break the outside building envelope

 

in any manner. All outer walls need to be insulated.

 

Install vapor and air infi ltration barriers per local/regional building codes.

Holes and other openings should be caulked with high temperature caulk or fi lled with unfaced fi ber glass insulation.

COOLER CLIMATES

In cooler climates, Hearth & Home Technologies Inc. recommends you insulate walls, ceiling, base plate, cantilever fl oor. Use batt type insulation between the joists.

Place a sheet of plywood or a raised platform on cement slab under appliance only. You need to secure the appliance to the cement slab so do not extend the plywood so as to interfer with the attachment.

A fi restop spacer should be installed in an insulated false ceiling at the 8 ft. (2.4m) level above the fi replace assembly. This reduces heat loss through the chase. It is required that fi restops be installed every 10 ft (3.05m) to control spread of fi re, but 8 ft is recommended to prevent heat loss.

WARNING! You must install false ceilings and ceiling

restops at each fl oor of the chase or every 10 ft (3.05 m) to control spread of fi re.

Hearth & Home Technologies Inc. suggests you sheetrock and tape (or use an equivalent method) all inside surfaces of fi rst level for maximum air tightness.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! You must maintain the pellet pipe manufacturer’s minimum air space clearance to insulation and other materials surrounding the chimney system.

Insulation and other materials must be fi rmly secured to prevent accidental contact with chimney system.

Failure to prevent contact between insulation or other materials and chimney system may cause overheat- ing and fi re.
