NOTE: Masonry fireplace installations require a direct connection or positive (complete reline) connection to the
chimney flue. With a direct connection a block-off plate made of metal or other non-combustible material
(i.e. Kaowool or high temperature fiberglass insulation) must be used at the damper location and sealed
airtight. The singlewall pipe or flexible liner must extend past the block-off plate or insulation by one (1) foot
(305 mm) or to the first flue tile if the chimney has a tile lining.
With a positive connection, the block-off plate at the damper location is optional, but a sealed cover plate
is required at the top of the chimney. A positive connection (complete reline) is recommended for ease of
cleaning. Zero clearance (metal) fireplace installations require a complete reline to top of chimney.
