CHIMNEY INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Cut and frame the holes in the ceiling, floor
and roof where the chimney will pass (see
Figure 22). Use a plumb-bob to line up the
center of the holes. The sizes are indicated
in Table 2 for the floor and ceiling holes
and Table 3 (Page 17) for the roof holes.

2. From below, install a firestop in each ceiling/
floor separation through which the chimney
will pass. At the attic level, install an attic
radiation shield from above (Figures 23a
through 23d).
3. For ASHT / HT6103+ AND S2100+ / HT6000+
chimneys
place the first chimney length on
*
the fireplace. To lock it in place, turn 1/4 of
a turn clockwise. With the AC chimney
you must use a starter section , AC6SB
AC6SB30
, before installing the first chim-
*
ney length (Figure 24). Continue installing
chimney lengths making sure to lock each
length in place.
4. Every time the chimney passes through
a ceiling or a wall, install the appropriate
firestop. When you reach the desired height,
install the roof support. When installing a
support, slightly lift the chimney system so
the weight will lie on the support, not on the
fireplace to reduce expansion noises (Refer
to instructions included with the support).
5. Then, put the roof flashing in place and seal
the joint between the roof and the flashing
with roofing pitch (see Figures 24 and 25).
For sloping roofs, place the flashing under
the upper and on top of the lower shingles.
Nail the flashing to the roof, using roofing
nails.
6. Place the spacers and the storm collar over
the flashing, and tighten it with the bolt
supplied. Finally, seal the joint between the
storm collar and the chimney, using silicone
caulking.
7. Install the chimney cap. Once the chimney
cap is in place, the roof flashing can be
washed with a solvent or vinegar and then
painted with rust-proof paint.
