See Figure 2. Locating the fireplace in a basement, near frequently opened doors, central heat outlets pr returns, or other locations of considerables air movement can affect the performance and cause intermittent smoKe spillage from the front of the fireplace. Consideration should bo given to these factors before deciding on a location.

A minimum W air clearance must be maintained at the back and sides of the fireplace assembly. Chimney sections at any level require a 2" minimum air space clearance between the framing and chimney section. Figures 3 and 4 show two typical installations assuming an outside air kit is being used, Therefore, an allowance must be made for 90" bends.

Adjacent combustible side walls must be located a minimum of 12" from the fireplace opening. See Figure 7. If you a/e using a decorative surround con- structed of combustible material, it must be located within the shaded area defined in Figure 7. Short stub walls are also acceptable if they are contained within the shaded area. FLUSH FRONT// \ T^ 50* i_ Vilr p CAT. pe~ # RHW4l!)

A combustible mantel may be positioned no lower than 12" above the top of the firebox opening. The combustible mantel may have a maximum depth of 12". Combustible trim materials, projecting no more than 1-1/2" from the face of the fireplace, can be placed no closer than 6" from the top and side of the E. CHIMNEY REQUIREMENTS When planning your fireplace location, the chimney construction and necessary clearances must be considered. The fireplace system and chimney components have been tested to provide the following flexibility in construc- tion. The following figures are the minimum distances from the base of the unit. Minimum overall straight height Minimum height with Offset/Return Maximum height Maximum chimney length between an Offset/Return Maximum distance between Chimney Stabilizers Double Offset/Return minimum height - Maximum unsupported chimney length between Offset/Return Maximum straight unsupported chimney height above firebox 1. USING OFFSETS AND RETURNS. To bypass any overhead obstructions, the chimney may be offset using a 15° offset/return (SL315) or a 30° offset/return (SL330). Perform the following steps to determine the correct chimney component combi- nation for your particular installation. An offset and return may be attached together or a chimney section(s) may be used between an offset and return. However, the distance between two elbows must never exceed 12 feet in total length. a. Measure how far the chimney needs to be shifted to enable it to avoid the overhead obstacle. See Figure 8, dimension "A". b. After determining the offset dimension, refer to Table 1, on page 13, and find the "A" dimension closest to but not less than the distance of shift needed for your installation. 3-00 11 26022C RHW SERIES WOODBURNING FIREPLACE No one DUI ids a t> etter m e 2. CHIMNEY HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS (Above the roof line), Major Building Codes specify a minimum chimney height above the roof top. These specifications are summarized in what is known as the "Ten Foot Rule". This rule states: If the horizontal distance from theiside of the chimney to the peak of the roof is 10 feet or less, the top of the chim- ney must be at least 2 feet above the peak of the roof, but never less than 3 feet in overall height above the highest point where it passes through the roof. See Figure 9. If the horizontal distance from the side of the chimney to the peak of the roof is more than 10 feet, a chimney height reference point is established on the surface of the roof a distance of 10 feet from the side of the chimney in a horizontal plane. The top of the chimney must be at least 2 feet above this reference point, but never less than 3 feet in height above the highest point where it passes through the roof. These chimney heights are necessary in the interest of safety and do not ensure smoke-free operation. Trees, buildings, adjoining roof lines, adverse wind conditions, etc., may create a need for a taller chimney should smok- ing occur. DETERMINING THE NUMBER OF CHIMNEY SECTIONS REQUIRED. To determine the chimney components needed to com- plete your particular installation, follow the below steps: 1. Determine the total vertical height of the fireplace installation. This dimension is measured from the base of the firebox assembly to the point where the smoke exits the terminal cap. 2. Subtract the height of the firebox assembly (367/C) from the overall height of the fireplace installation. 3. Reference the below chart to determine what compo- nents must be selected to complete the fireplace installation. 4. Determine the number of firestop spacers, stabilizers, roof flashing, etc. required to complete the fireplace installation.
