FIREPLACE HEARTH INSTALLATIONS:

Determine the height of the chimney, and purchase enough 3" flexible aluminum liner to extend to the top of the chimney twice.

Attach the two lengths of aluminum flex liner to the intake and exhaust ports on the top adapter box with pipe clamps or sheet metal screws and silicone sealant. Glue the top sealer plate to the chimney top with silicone sealant, and lower the two liner lengths through the opening. Anchor the top adapter box to the sealer plate with screws, and twist-lock the coaxial rain cap on top. Down below, use clamps or screws and silicone sealant to attach the two liner lengths to the bottom adapter box, which is used to connect the liners to a coaxial 45 degree elbow. The elbow then connects to the 45 degree flue collar on the stove.

If the stove is to stand inside the fireplace, orient the 45 degree elbow so it points straight up, as shown in the diagram at upper right. If the stove is to stand out on the hearth in front of the fireplace opening as shown at lower right, orient the elbow so it points straight back to clear the lintel bar, then bend the liners forward to attach the adapter box.
