Hearth and Home Technologies BIR42 owner manual Using Offsets/Returns, Example

Page 26

B. Using Offsets/Returns

•Use an offset/return to bypass overhead obstructions.

•An offset and return can be used as a single entity or separated by chimney section(s).

WARNING! Risk of Fire! DO NOT use offset/returns greater than 30°. Chimney draft will be restricted and could cause overheating and fire.

•Measure the shift needed to avoid the overhead obstruction. Refer to dimension A in Figure 8.3.

•Find the appropriate A dimension listed in Table 8.2.

•The B dimension coinciding with the A dimension measurement in Table 8.2 represents the required vertical clearance needed to complete the offset/return.

•Read across the chart to find the number of chimney sections/model numbers needed between the offset and return.

Figure 8.3 Chimney Offset/Return

Example:

Your “A” dimension from Figure 8.3 is 14 1/2 in. (368 mm). Using Table 8.2 the dimension closest to, but not less than 14 1/2 in. (368 mm) is 15 3/4 in. (400 mm) using a 30° offset/return.

You determined from the table that you would need

36 5/8 in. (930 mm) (Dimension “B”) between the offset and return.

The chimney component that best fits your application is two SL1112s.

Proper assembly of air cooled chimney parts results in an overlap of chimney joints of 1-1/4 in. (32 mm). Effective length is built into this table.
