PRECAUTIONS INTRODUCTION General Information Note: These fireplace systems are not difficult to install. However, in the interest of safety, it is recommended that the installer be a qualified or certified “tradesman” familiar with commonly accepted fireplace installation and safety techniques as well as prevailing local codes.
Note: Do not insulate the chase cavity with blown or fill type insulation materials. Insulate Joists Same as Ceiling Damper Closed CHIMNEY HEIGHT The total height of your completed fireplace system from the surface the fireplace rests on to the chimney top must not exceed 80' (24.4m) and must also meet minimum height requirements. Refer to the minimum system height chart.

ASSEMBLY STEPS Note: The following steps represent the normal sequence of installation. Each installation is unique, however, and might require a different sequence. 1. Position firebox prior to framing or into prepared framing. 2.
Note: The “Z” type safety strip is not supplied. FIREPLACE SPECIFICATIONS 15" O.D.

Refer to fireplace drawings and specifications on pages 6 and 7 for framing dimensions and details.
Note: The framed depth, 28 ¹³⁄₁₆" (732mm) from a framed wall, must always be measured from a finished surface. If a wall covering such as drywall is to be attached to the rear wall, then the framed depth must be measured from the drywall surface. It is important that this dimension be exact. Back Wall of Chase/Enclosure Including Finishing Materials if any D K FOAK-4 F G If the appliance is to be elevated above floor level, a solid continuous platform must be constructed.
Step 5. Fireplace should be secured to side framing members using the full length nailing tabs at the top and bottom of the fireplace front face. Use 8d nails or equivalent (Figure 18 ). Framing Stud Nailing Tab 8d Nail Figure 18 Note: The nailing tabs and the area directly behind the nailing tabs are exempt from the clearances described on page 5. Maintain at least 1/2" clearance from the firebox wrapper to the framing at the closest point of contact, directly adjacent to the flange.
For Canada Only When installing the chimney system through an open attic space, the attic shield assemblyfirestop spacer must be used (Figure 23 ). This installation procedure is Warnock Hersey Inc. listed only for use in Canada. Outer pipe section installs in just the opposite way; the lanced end goes down and each new section goes OVER the outside of the previous section installed (Figure 25 ). Open Attic Space Locking Tabs (Lances) Figure 23 Figure 25 Step 4.
Step 7. Secure flashing by nailing along the perimeter into roof using 8d nails. If shingled roof, slide upper end and sides of roof flashing under shingles (trim if necessary), seal the top and both sides of the flashing to the roof with roof caulking. Cover nail heads with roof caulking (Figure 29 ). Use the nut provided and TIGHTEN snugly. Do not overtighten as this might damage the chimney section (refer to Figure 30 ).
MULTIPLE TERMINATIONS If more than one termination is located in the same chase or within the same general proximity, we suggest they should be separated in distance at least 24" (610 mm) horizontally from flue center to flue center and stacked or staggered vertically at least 18" (457 mm) apart, from the termination of one smoke exit to the termination of another smoke exit (Figure 34 ).
OFFSET CALCULATIONS Step 1. Use Offset Chart to determine amount of horizontal offset (A) and height (B) for various chimney section assemblies. A2 C2 FTF10 Chimney B2 4' Step 2.

INSTALLING OFFSETS OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT CONSIDERATIONS First, review the Offset Elevation Chart and Figure 40 for reference. Step 1. Determine the offset distance where chimney is to pass through the first ceilingdimension “A.” To find this point on your ceiling, first determine the center point for a vertical chimney following the instructions for vertical installation. Measure height to the ceiling from the top of fireplace-dimension “B.” Use the appropriate Offset Elevation Chart to find dimension “A.
Outside combustion air ducting may be run upwards or vertically through framing and ceiling joists, with the hood installed through an outside wall and 3' (914 mm) below the termination. Ducting may also be run downward through floor joists and under the home to a ventilated crawlspace not considered part of the living area of the home. Note: Do not terminate combustion air kit in attic space under any circumstances.

Answer - The minimum required thickness of the Micore 160 is .417”, therefore round up to nearest standard thickness available which is 1/2”. Wall Shield Required if less than 18" (457mm) 40" (1016mm) Listed Material k (per inch) Listed Material .84 KL r (per inch) Listed Min.Thickness 1" TL 1.
The sum of all “R values” is: .70 + .10 +. 038 + .10 = .938 This would NOT be an acceptable combination of material for the hearth extension since the total calculated “R value” of the materials used is under the required “R value” of 1.19. An additional layer of insulating materials must be used. Note: Also see NFI Certification Manuals for expanded explanation on calculating “R values” when multiple materials are used.
