I. Ovalizing Round Stainless Steel Liners

K. Air Clearances

Ovalizing round stainless steel liners to accommodate the liner passing through the damper region of a fireplace is an allowable and acceptable practice.

Ensure that the ovalization is minimized to the extent required to fit through the damper.

J. Chimney Height / Rise and Run

To be sure that your Quadra-Fire insert burns properly, the chimney draft (static pressure) should be approximately -0.10 inches water column (W.C.) during a high burn and -0.04 inches W.C. during a low burn, measured 6 inches (152mm) above the top of the insert after one hour of operation at each burn setting.

NOTE: These are guidelines only, and may vary somewhat for individual installations.

This product was designed for and tested on a 6 inch

(152mm) chimney, 14 to 16 feet (4.27-4.87m) high, (in- cludes appliance height) measured from the base of the appliance.

The further your stack height or diameter varies from this configuration, the possibility of performance problems ex- ists.

Chimney height may need to be increased by 2 - 3% per each 1000 feet (304.8m) above sea level.

It is not recommended to use offsets or elbows at altitudes above 4000 feet (1219.2m) above sea level or when there are other factors that affect flue draft.

To ensure that insulation or any other combustible material does not contact the chimney follow clearances below:

A chimney inside the house must have at least 2 inches (51mm) of clearance to the combustible structure.

A chimney outside the house must have at least 1 inch (25mm) clearance to the combustible structure.

Non-combustible fire stops must be installed at the spaces where the chimney passes through floors and/or ceilings.
