Technologies recommends that NFI or CSIA certi

professionals, or technicians under the direction of certi-

ed professionals, conduct a minimum of a NFPA 211

Level 2 inspection of the chimney.

• Replace component parts of the chimney and

replace

as speci

ed by the professionals.

• Ensure all joints are properly engaged and the chimney

is properly secured.

When planning an appliance installation, it’s necessary to
determine the following information before installing:

• Minimum

replace size. See Section 3.A.

• Gas supply piping.
• Electrical

wiring.

• Finishing

details.

• Existing mantel, mantel legs and wall projection loca-

tions. See Section 3.C.
