The Chimney / Flue System - Morso 5660 Standard Insert Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

Combustion chamber
1. Position and level the convection box into the
fireplace opening. Allen-head leveling bolts
can be accessed at the base of the combustion
chamber (under the base liners).
2. Replace and mount the combustion chamber
into the convection box.
3. Connect the chimney liner to the flue collar
from inside the combustion chamber. Guide
the flue collar with flue pipe or liner attached
through the circular hole in the back of the
convection box. The flue collar (with chimney
liner connected) is fastened back onto to
the combustion chamber. A fireplace may
be constructed in several ways therefore, if
necessary, ask your chimney sweep about
the optimum connection method between the
insert and the chimney.
4. Replace the interior parts in the reverse order
when removed. The baffle plate is mounted
back over the two guide bolts. Next, the two
M8 center bolts are screwed in place. The two
guide bolts are removed and the last two M8
bolts inserted and screwed in. Firebox liners
and fireproof materials are put back in the
following order: the rear liner, the two side
liners, and the two bottom liners. The fireproof
insulation mat is carefully put in place on top
of the baffle plate. Finally, the last liner is put
back in place (in front, centered on the baffle
plate and slanted up towards the smoke exit
hole). Caution: The liners are very porous and
must be handled with great care. The stove
door is repositioned on the hinges with the
hinge pins. Remember to put the spilt pins and
the brass washer back in place on the upper
hinge. If the insert ever have to be removed
for the purposes of inspecting the fireplace
insert and fireplace it can be done by using
the instruction for the installation (page 6-8)
in the reverse order of which it was installed.
Metal Tag
Where a masonry fireplace has been altered to accommodate the 5660 Fireplace Insert, a metal
data tag (enclosed) should be attached to the masonry fireplace using screws or nails. The tag
should be easily visible should future homeowners wish to remove the 5660 Fireplace Insert at
a later date.

1.1 The chimney / flue system

Note that the flue system must be independently secured and must not rely on the stove for
support.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
(Several flues may run up a single chimney stack; use one flueway per appliance).
Use a residential type masonry or listed type HT factory-built chimney.
High Temperature (H.T.) Chimney Standard UL-103-1985 (2100º F.) for the USA, and High
Temperature (650ºC) Standard ULC S-629 for Canada.
This fireplace insert must be installed with a continuous chimney liner 6'' diameter
extending from the fireplace insert to the top of the chimney. The chimney liner must
conform to the class 3 requirements of CAN/ULC-S635, Standard for Lining System for
Existing Masonry or Factory-Built Chimneys and Vents, or CAN/ULC-S640, Standard
for Lining Systems for New Masonry Chimneys.
The internal dimensions of the chimney connector and chimney must not be less than 6 inches
diameter (or equivalent cross section), and should not be significantly larger than this. Too
large a section will tend to allow the flue gases to cool excessively, causing sluggishness or
unpredictability in the stove's performance.
We recommend the length of the chimney system should be at least 16 feet (not required) above the
stove in normal domestic situations, measured from the flue collar to the top of the chimney.
Local conditions like for example - roof constructions, large trees nearby and high altitude, may
influence the chimney draft and height. Therefore, contact the local professional chimney sweep or
your Morsø dealer.
A factory-built chimney should consist of:
• Connector, rigid or flexible (between flue collar of insert and flue liner)
• Insulated High Temperature Flueliner (16 feet)
• High Temperature prefabricated Chimney Cap
Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system
Important: If the installation instructions are not followed carefully, it may cause dangerous
situations like chimney - and house fires. Follow the instructions carefully and do not deviate
from them as it may cause injuries to people or property.
