Ovalizing round stainless steel liners to accommodate the
liner passing through the damper region of a replace is an
allowable and acceptable practice.
Ensure that the ovalization is minimized to the extent
required to t through the damper.

Fire Risk.
Do NOT pack insulation or other combustibles
between spacers.
• ALWAYS maintain specied clearances around
venting and spacers.
• Install spacers as specied.
Failure to keep insulation or other material away from
vent pipe may cause re.

K. Chimney Height / Rise and Run
To be sure that your Quadra-Fire insert burns properly, the
chimney draft (static pressure) should be approximately -0.10
inches water column (W.C.) during a high burn and -0.04
inches W.C. during a low burn, measured 6 inches (152mm)
above the top of the insert after one hour of operation at each
burn setting.
NOTE: These are guidelines only, and may vary somewhat
for individual installations.
• This product was designed for and tested on a 6 inch
(152mm) chimney, 14 to 16 feet (4.27-4.87m) high, (in-
cludes appliance height) measured from the base of the
appliance.
• The further your stack height or diameter varies from this
conguration, the possibility of performance problems ex-
ists.
• Chimney height may need to be increased by 2
- % per
each 1000 feet (04.8m) above sea level.
• It is not recommended to use offsets or elbows at altitudes
above 4000 feet (1219.2m) above sea level or when there
are other factors that affect ue draft.
I. Zero-Clearance Fireplace
Zero Clearance Fireplaces are factory-built insulated
metal replaces that are usually framed into the wall and
attached to combustible framing wood lumber. The term,
“Zero Clearance” refers to the fact that wood framing mate-
rial can be in contact with the outer shell of the metal ZC
replace or zero air space required to combustibles.
The factory-built chimney must be listed per UL 127 or ULC
610-M87 for all installations. Install thermal protection per
this appliance listing requirements.
A permit is required for all installations, nal approval is
contingent of the authority having local jurisdiction. Inspect
the existing replace and chimney for any damage or aws
such as burnouts, metal or refectory warping.
The base and hearth oor of the zero clearance replace
must be able to appropriately support the weight of the
wood insert and attached chimney liner.
Make all necessary repairs prior to installing the new wood
insert into the factory built replace. The factory Zero
Clearance Fireplace must be structurally sound for proper
insert support and proper operation and continued use of
the wood insert.
A full height 6 inch diameter stainless steel full height listed
chimney liner must be installed meeting type HT (2100°F)
requirements per UL 1777 (USA) or ULC S65 with “0”
clearance to masonry (Canada). The full liner must be
attached to the insert ue collar and to the top of the exist-
ing chimney.
The ue liner top support attachment must not reduce the
air ow for the existing air-cooled chimney system. Re-
install original factory-built chimney cap only.
To prevent room air passage to the chimney cavity of the
replace, seal either the damper area around the chimney
liner or the insert surround. Circulating air chamber (i.e. in
a steel replace liner or metal hearth circulator) may not
be blocked. The air ow within and around the replace
shall not be altered, blocked by the installation of the insert.
(i.e. no louvers or cooling air inlet or outlet ports may be
blocked by the insert or the insert surround.
See Page 37 “Altering the Fireplace” for modications
allowed for factory-built replaces.
Fire Risk.
This appliance relies upon natural draft to operate
properly.
• Chimney heights exceeding 25 feet (7.62m) from
base of appliance may create an over-draft situation.
• Overdraft condition may create over-ring.
Over-ring may ignite creosote and/or damage appli-
ance and chimney
