J. Ovalizing Round Stainless Steel Liners

Ovalizing round stainless steel liners to accommodate the liner passing through the damper region of a fi replace is an allowable and acceptable practice.

Ensure that the ovalization is minimized to the extent required to fi t through the damper.

K. Chimney Height / Rise and Run

To be sure that your Quadra-Fire insert burns properly, the chimney draft (static pressure) should be approximately -0.10 inches water column (W.C.) during a high burn and -0.04 inches W.C. during a low burn, measured 6 inches (152mm) above the top of the insert after one hour of operation at each burn setting.

NOTE: These are guidelines only, and may vary somewhat for individual installations.

This product was designed for and tested on a 6 inch (152mm) chimney, 14 to 16 feet (4.27-4.87m) high, (in- cludes appliance height) measured from the base of the appliance.

The further your stack height or diameter varies from this confi guration, the possibility of performance problems ex- ists.

Chimney height may need to be increased by 2 - 3% per each 1000 feet (304.8m) above sea level.

It is not recommended to use offsets or elbows at altitudes above 4000 feet (1219.2m) above sea level or when there are other factors that affect fl ue draft.

WARNING

Fire Risk.

Do NOT pack insulation or other combustibles between spacers.

ALWAYS maintain specifi ed clearances around venting and spacers.

Install spacers as specifi ed.

Failure to keep insulation or other material away from vent pipe may cause fi re.

WARNING

Fire Risk.

Failure to install a full reline may cause:

Creosote accumulation creating increased risk of chimney fi re.

Lose protection to combustible surfaces from the liner in case of fi re.

Poor performance and start-ups.

Less access to chimney for required maintenance.

WARNING

Fire Risk.

This appliance relies upon natural draft to operate properly.

Chimney heights exceeding 25 feet (7.62m) from base of appliance may create an over-draft situation.

Overdraft condition may create over-fi ring.

Over-fi ring may ignite creosote and/or damage appli- ance and chimney.
