INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR
MASONRY APPLICATIONS
WARNING
Before starting the installation,
the masonry chimney must be
inspected by a qualified chimney
sweep.
The following requirements must be met:
1.
The chimney must be absolutely clear of
any soot residue or creosote. Check for
cracks, loose or missing bricks that could
inhibit correct installation of the liner.
2.
The clearance to combustible must be a
minimum of 1" between the outside of the
masonry and any wood framing or loose
insulation.
3.
The chimney must be built in accordance
with the current building code.
4.
No other appliance can be connected to
the same chimney.
5.
The clearances to combustible for the
BISPMA30
connectors are 2" on the side
*
and bottom and 16" at the top.
6.
The connector parts are not necessary
if the connection between the insulated
length and the stainless steel liner is done
within the masonry chimney.
Installation:
The chimney must be relined with a stainless
steel liner model Tubinox™
or Projet
*
the same diameter as the outlet of the fireplace.
For connection at a 30º angle, a special con-
nector (BISPMA30
) must be used to connect
*
the liner to the insulated chimney.
* IMPORTANT NOTE - The use of a 45º connec-
tor (BISPMA
) is approved for use in Canada
*
ONLY. Installations in the USA must use the
30º connector (BISPMA30
).
*
See Figure 31 for typical installation.
Follow these steps:
1-
Position the fireplace in its location.
Temporarily install the ASHT+
the top of the fireplace and, using a level,
mark with an oval the location where the
flue liner will enter the masonry chimney.
2-
In the middle of the oval, drill a hole in the
masonry chimney at 45° or 30°.

Increase the size of the hole until a 45º
or 30º Tubinox
slipped through.
4-
Slide the liner down from the top of the
masonry chimney until you reach the hole
level.
5-
Slip through the hole a 45° or 30° liner
elbow and connect it to the liner.
6-
Add a small liner section to the liner elbow
which will allow the liner to extend at least
12" (measured at the top of the liner) from
the masonry chimney.
7-
Seal the opening around the liner with high
elbow on
temperature refractory cement.

New or Existing
Select the ASHT+
length that will fit
*
between the elbow and the liner so that it
will slide at least 2" over the liner section.
(You may need to cut the liner for a better
fit).
Take that section and the BISUMA30
cover and slide it over the liner. Make
sure you have enough opening to be
able to install the ASHT+
elbow without
*
difficulty.
Install the 45° or 30° elbow on the fire-
place.
Slide the length section back down on the
elbow and twist lock the two together.
Pull the cover down over the length and
install the insulation pad over the liner; be
careful to cover the liner completely.
Slide back the cover over the insulation
and fix it in place using the 3 metal screws
supplied.
