UL1777 standards. Follow liner manufacturer instal-

lation instructions.

3.  Remove  or  lock  the  fireplace  damper  in  the  open 

position. Note: Masonry or damper plate may be re-

moved to accommodate the chimney liner provided 

this does not weaken any structural components of 

the existing fireplace or chimney nor reduces protec

tion  of  combustible  materials  required  by  national 

building codes. Consult with your local building or fire 

authority before doing this.
