Offset Chimney Installation

Chimney elbows may be used in the installation of the system. A maximum of four 45 degree elbows are allowed. This may be achieved by combining 30 degree and 15 degree elbows together if necessary and allowed by the chim- ney manufacturer. Offset angles of 45, 30 and 15 degrees are allowed with a maximum of 2 offsets.

1)Install the fi replace and chimney as de- scribed above. When you require an elbow, proceed as follows:

2)Install the insulated elbow. Turn the elbow to the required direction and fasten it with screws or locking bands depending on fl ue design as specifi ed by the manufacturer.

3)Turn the chimney lengths clockwise to lock them together, then secure them with screws at each joint or locking bands; see the manufacturers requirements.

4)Use another elbow to return the chimney to vertical.

be closed during regular operation because the unit uses outside air for combustion, not room air.

2)Multiple Terminations. When you install more than one chimney in the same chase or within the same general area, we suggest that their terminations be separated by at least 16 in. (410 mm) horizontally and 18 in. (460 mm) vertically. This separation is to prevent smoke migrating from one chimney to another.

3)Chimney Maintenance. It is important that you inspect your chimney regularly and keep it clean. If you note more than 1/8 in. creosote build up in your chimney have it cleaned as per instructions of the chimney manufacturer.

4)Chimney Fires. If you do have a chimney fi re, refer to the following:

a.Close the fireplace doors and air damper.

5)

Install an offset support in the joist at the ceiling. Re- supportaboveeach offset; elbows are not designed to carry the weight of the fl ue system.
