CL36D AND CR36D INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

6. Attic Insulation Shield

8. Securing the Chimney System

An insulation shield should be installed when there is a possibility of insulation coming into contact with the factory built chimney system. The insulation shield is installed by positioning it over the vertical chimney section where it penetrates a firestop spacer. The firestop spacer will support the insulation shield. See Figure 10.

When offsets and returns are joined to straight pipe sections, they must be locked into position with the screws provided (outer only), using the predrilled holes. To prevent gravity from pulling the chimney sections apart, the returns and the chimney stabilizers have straps for securing these parts to joists or rafters. See Figure 11.

Note: You must provide support for the pipe dur- ing construction and check to be sure inadvertent loading has not dislodged the chimney section from the fireplace or at any chimney joint.

7.Double-checking the Chimney Assembly

Continue assembling the chimney sections up through the firestop spacers as needed. While doing so, be aware of the height and unsupported chimney length limitations that are given on page 12 under “Chimney Requirements”.

Check each section by pulling up slightly from the top to ensure proper engagement before installing the succeeding sections. If they have been connected correctly, they will not disengage when tested.

CAUTION:

Inner flue and outer liner sections cannot be dis- assembled once locked together. Plan ahead to ensure the proper installation height is achieved with the selected chimney components.

WARNING!

Maintain a minimum of 2” air clearance to all parts of the chimney system at all times! Fail- ure to maintain this 2” air clearance will cause a structure fire.

WARNING!

When chimney sections exceeding six feet in length are installed between an offset and re- turn, structural support must be provided to re- duce off-center loading and prevent chimney sections from separating at the chimney joints.
