fireplace.
• If the fireplace is raised, the
enclosure height must be raised to
maintain the 81".
• Do not build into this area.

A firestop is required at the top of
the fireplace enclosure or ceiling
level (whichever is lower).
Min. 4-1/2"
We recommend installing the
shaded framing members
after installing the chimney.
Arrange the framing
members so there is not a
vertical member directly in
the center of the opening
where it would interfere with
pipe clearances.

(install veritcally to
ensure proper pipe to
header clearance)
NOTE: make sure the
enclosure is wide enough to
accommodate the blower
(see the section"Blower" for
details).
