Adaptation to Masonry Chimney

C. Existing Masonry Chimney Installation

This installation is subject to local jurisdic- tion. Some codes may require the use of another liner for intake air. If so, the 4” aluminum liner should be inside a 6” UL 181 listed liner.

This Heater can be vented through an existing Masonry Chimney but the chimney must be lined with one UL 1777 listed 4” aluminum flexible gas vent liner for exhaust. The existing Flue will be used to supply the air intake to the galvanized steel Flue system. See Figure 11.
