1. Move the fireplace into position. Try to center the ex-
haust flue of the fireplace, midpoint between two joists to

centre.

minimum clearance of 2" between the outside of the chim-

between the joists for extra support. Firestop spacers must
be placed on each framed opening in any floor or ceiling

determine where the opening in the roof should be. Cut
and frame the roof opening maintaining proper 2" clear-
ances.
