Location  of  the  appliance  and  chimney  will  affect  perfor-

mance. As shown in

Figure 6.1 the chimney should:

 •  Be installed through the warm space enclosed by the

building envelope. This helps to produce more draft,

especially during lighting and die down of the fire.

  •  Penetrate the highest part of the roof.  This minimizes 

the affects of wind turbulence.

  •  Consider the appliance location to the floor and ceil-

ing attic joists.

Exterior  conditions  such  as  roof  line,  surrounding  trees,

prevailing  winds  and  nearby  hills  can  influence  appliance 

performance.    Your  local  dealer  is  the  expert  in  your 

geographic  area  and  can  usually  make  suggestions  or 

discover solutions that will easily correct your flue problem.

To be sure that your appliance burns properly, the chimney

draft (static pressure) should be approximately -.10 inch water

column (W.C.) during a high burn and -.04 inch W.C. during

a low burn, measured 6 inches (152mm) above the top of the

appliance after one hour of operation at each burn setting.

NOTE: These are guidelines only, and may vary somewhat

for individual installations.

Before beginning the installation be sure that the following

tools and building supplies are available.

•  Open  the  appliance  and  remove  all  the  parts  and

articles packed inside.

•  Inspect all the parts and glass for shipping damage.

•   Contact your dealer if any irregularities are noticed.

•   Removed all labels from the glass doors.

 

•    Wipe clean all plated surfaces before first fire.
