FLUE INSTALLATION
1. Install rst length of ue pipe crimped end down, inside gather collar. Rivet ue pipe in 3 places around
gather collar. Place bottom ue spider bracket around gather ue pipe collar, secure in position by
tightening up coach bolt/screw (supplied).
2. Install second length of the ue pipe crimped end down and x by riveting in at least 3 places around
the ue pipe joint.
3. Install rst length of the ue pipe casing by positioning on installed bottom ue spider bracket crimped
end up.
4. Position ue spacer at the ue pipe joint.
5. Repeat steps 1 - 4 to the required ue system height.
6. The last length of ue pipe needs to extend past the ue pipe casing by at least 150mm or ush with
the top of the casing cover spigot when tted - sizing/measuring and cutting down should be carried
out prior to the ue pipe casing being tted over the ue pipe.
7. Before tting casing cover, place the spider in opposition with the spider post facing down between the
ue pipe and ue pipe casing. Secure spider in position. Place the casing cover over the ue pipe, press
down rmly onto the spider. Check airway around the casing cover is clear, then secure in position using
three stainless steel rivets.
8. Fit cowl to top of ue - DO NOT RIVET IN POSITION. In high wind areas, it is recommended that the cowl
be secured in position with a stainless steel self tapping screw, this will enable the cowl to be removed
for cleaning. Discuss Bird Proong needs with your installer. N.B. in extreme wind areas it may be
necessary to consult The Fireplace Ltd or your local agent for further technical assistance.
9. If ue is concealed in a chase, allow for air vents (2 x 80mm diam. or equivalent) at the highest
possible point on the chimney chase or alternatively, allow a min 25mm air space between the casing
cover spigot and the outer casing. Refer to Figure 5 & 6.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
• When the re is not in use, ensure the stainless steel cover is tted at all times. This will assist in
protecting the rebox. DO NOT attach the cover when the re is in use.
• This re is NOT warranted against rust or salt air corrosion. Please refer to the Fireplace Fireguard
Warranty for full details.
• A seasonal touch-up is recommended. Simply remove surface rust with some steel wool and repaint
using Black VHT paint (available from your nearest showroom). Please ensure all areas around the
rebox are protected when re-painting.
For high wind locations, The Fireplace recommends tting a Stainless Steel Jetmaster Bird Cowl
