A. Straight up through ceiling (See Page 6 Figures 1 and 2). This is a simple installation normally used
when installing a Model 80ZC inside an existing room and in some cases, in new construction.
Refer to (Page 6 Figure 3) if an offset to clear an obstruction is needed.
WARNING:
Only one pair of 15 degree or 30 degree offsets can be used.

B. Exterior Chase Installation: (See Figure 4). A chase is an enclosure built specifically to house a
chimney. The interior of a chase is open from Model 80ZC to the roof, eliminating the need to cut
through ceilings and the roof. Normally, a chase is built through the wall and the Model 80ZC is
located in the bottom of the chase, with the front of the unit flush with the interior wall. Chases are
commonly veneered on the outside with brick, stone or wood to give the appearance of a
conventional fireplace flue. Occasionally, they are built inside and boxed in, similar to a stairwell.
When making a chase installation, it is important to read the chimney manufacturer's instructions
prior to building, as there are specific requirements for bracing a free standing flue that must be
planned for. There are also occasions where offsets are used within a chase to accommodate unusual
building designs or to locate the Model 80ZC further into a room.
