clearances and HeiGHt reQuireMents
The FP90 may be placed on or near construction
materials. The combustion air kit, fire stop spacer
and roof flashings (not chase flashings) may be
placed directly on or against normal construction
materials. The chimney requires a minimum 2"
(51mm) clearance. A combustible mantle (to a
depth of 10", 254mm) may be installed no closer
than 18" (457mm) above the warm air vent or
55-1/2" (1410mm) from bottom of unit.
The chimney must be enclosed when installed
in or
passing through a living area where
combustible material or people may come in
contact with it. This is important to prevent
possible personal injury or fire hazard.
For any further information, please call your
dealer. Special restrictions apply to the front
and facing of the fireplace and nearby walls.
WarninG: If insulation is used, do not place
the unit against it. Insulation or vapor barriers, if
used, must be secured to assure insulation and
vapor barriers remain in place and do not affect
the required air spaces.

notes:
1) Do not insulate the chase cavity with blown
or fill type insulation materials.
2) Local codes may not require firestopping
at the ceiling level
installations; however, it is recommended
for safety and the reduction of heat loss.
3) We recommend that you insulate at least the
first floor of the chase to prevent heat loss.
4) Some local codes require 1 hour fire rating
on one or all sides of fire chases. Check with
your local authorities.
