Into a Masonry Fireplace

The existing fireplace damper is to be locked open or removed completely.
WARNING: Do not remove bricks or mortar from your existing fireplace.
Exception: Masonry or steel, including the damper plate, may be removed from the smoke shelf and
adjacent damper frame if necessary to accommodate a chimney liner, provided that their removal will
not weaken the structure of the fireplace and chimney, and will not reduce protection for combustible
materials to less than that required by the National Building Code.
A metal tag is provided and is to be fastened to the back wall of the fireplace, if the fireplace has been
modified to accommodate the insert.
