MASONRY INSERT INSTALLATION

SECTION II

MASONRY INSERT INSTALLATION

The Model 74 may be installed using an all masonry fireplace built in accordance with the Uniform Building Code and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). The first step in this type of installation is to determine the acceptability of the fireplace and chimney for use with a woodstove. Both the construction and condition of the fireplace are important consid- erations when installing a woodstove. The chimney should extend at least 3' above the roof and at least 2' above any point of the roof within 10'.
