qualified installer. Otherwise, the diameter of the flue must be reduced to 6" (152 mm)
by the use of a stainless steel liner.

103 HT (U.S.A.) or ULC S629 (Canada).
Use only components intended for the brand and
model of chimney you are using.
Never substitute parts from other chimney
brands.
Never fabricate your own components.
The chimney must be a type suitable for solid
fuel.
To be safe and effective, the chimney must be
installed exactly in accordance with the chimney
manufacturer’s instructions.
