The RUMFORD 1000 weighs 740 lb crated. The RUMFORD 1000 fireplace is front heavy. To safely ship and transport the RUMFORD 1000, we have taken various parts from the front of the fireplace and attach them to the back of the crate rendering the overall crate rather well- balanced. -

One of the two options MUST be installed. Vermiculite panels with a herringbone brick pattern (EO-VP1000). This choice offers the cleanest burning fireplace on the market and a very classic herringbone look. -

Page 25: Outside Air Intake
OUTSIDE AIR INTAKE The use of outside air is not required unless specified by local building codes. The fireplace only accepts outside air on the left side of the fireplace and comes standard with a 4" connection collar on the fireplace. For outside air runs of 10' or less, the Renaissance FO-INT outside air kit is recommended. -
Page 26: Chimney
CHIMNEY For the best chimney performance, we recommend an interior chimney installation over an exterior chimney installation. In climates with temperatures below 32°F (0°C) the use of an exterior chimney may adversely affect how the fire burns and how well smoke is vented through the chimney. -
Page 27: Offsetting The Chimney
OFFSETTING THE CHIMNEY Use an elbow to offset the chimney to avoid cutting the roof and/or floor joists. An elbow may be installed directly on top of the fireplace. Use the RIS 10" offset chart (see Table 7) to correctly offset the chimney. An offset requires additional chimney support in the form of an offset support or wall support to prevent the chimney from leaning. -

These lintels protrude past the front of the fireplace by 1 ¼" allowing ½" for the cement board panels that must cover the front and ¾" for your non-combustible finishing materials. If thicker lintels are required, you can use these lintels as a template to have custom lintels made. -
