Installation
• Install the chase top.
• Place the inner slip section into the inner section of the uppermost chimney section. Slip the outer slip section over the
outer section of the uppermost chimney section. Press the termination assembly down until the flanges contact the chase
top.
• Using the holes in the flanges as guides, drill 1/8” diameter holes in the chase top. Lift the cap, place waterproof sealant
on the bottom of the flanges, push the flange onto the chase top and secure with the four screws provided in the fastener
package. Place a small dab of waterproof sealant over each screw head to ensure a leak tight top.
• When a field constructed decorative surround is installed around this termination assembly, the shroud must meet or
exceed the minimum dimensions shown in Figure 2. The chase must measure a minimum of 18¾” x 18¾”.
• For chimney cleaning, remove the four screws and the screen from the top of the cap. Lift out the baffle system. Clean
baffle, screen and chimney, and reinstall everything. See Figure 4.
Note: The last chimney section must be located within 2”
above or 3” below the chase top. See Figure 3.
Note: To protect the cap against the effects of corrosion, we recommend
that the termination caps be painted with rust resistant paint.
