INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR MASONRY APPLICATION
WARNING: Before starting the installation, the masonry chimney must be
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 BISUMA or BISPMA and BISUMA30 or 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 SS of the same diameter
as the outlet of the fireplace.
For connection at 45º angle, a special connector (BISUMA for the BIS Ultra and BIS Ultima fireplaces or
BISPMA for the BIS Panorama fireplace) must be used to connect the liner to the insulated chimney. For
connection at 30º, use the BISUMA30 or BISPMA30 connectors.
Follow these steps:
1-
Position the fireplace in its location.
Temporarily install the ASHT+ elbow on
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 45º or 30º.
3-
Increase the size of the hole until a 45º or
30º Tubinox liner elbow can be easily
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 45º or 30º 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
temperature refractory cement.
8-
The next steps must be done in the
following order :
A. 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).
B. Take that section and the BISUMA or BISPMA (BISUMA30 or BISPMA30) cover and slide it over the liner.
Make sure you have enough opening to be able to install the ASHT+ elbow without difficulty.
C. Install the 45º or 30º elbow on the fireplace.
D. Slide the length section back down on the elbow and twist lock the two together.
E. Pull the cover down over the length and install the insulation pad over the liner; be careful to cover the liner
completely.
F. Slide back the cover over the insulation and fix it in place using the 3 metal screws supplied.
inspected by a qualified sweep.
