Install the Chimney Air Kit (required in Canada)

When installing the chimney air kit, follow the instructions provided with this accessory.

B. Chase Top

A metal chase top is required to seal the top of the chase around the chimney pipe. The top should include a turn- down and drip edge to prevent water from seeping into the chase. Provide a 1/8 in. (3 mm) gap around the flue pipe and slope the top downward away from the penetration. See Figure 6.4.

•All seams must be caulked to prevent leaks.

•A chase installation must use a chase top. Chase tops are available from your Heat & Glo dealer or may be field constructed.

•Attach the chase top to the top of the chase.

Termination Cap

•Install the chimney sections up through the chase enclosure. When using a TR444 Round Termination Cap, the uppermost top section of pipe must extend 6 in. (152 mm) above the top of the flashing collar to allow installation of the storm collar and termination cap. See Figure 6.5.
