SECTION 5
Attaching the Chimney
1. Mark the location for the vertical chimney bracket:
If using the upper chimney section: 9-3/4"
If not using upper chimney section: 15-3/4"
2. If installing onto drywall, drill holes into wall using a 3/16" drill bit. Install wall anchors
into the drilled holes (one for each hole). Secure bracket into place with (2) provided
#6 x 1" screws. If installing into other material (brick, cement, plaster, etc.) choose an
appropriate fastner capable of supporting the weight of the chimney (Figure 5).
3. Press in appropriate tabs on lower chimney section (section with vent holes). If
using the upper chimney, press in tabs in middle of the chimney (Position A), other-
wise press in tabs at top of the chimney (Position B). Press in tabs at the bottom of
the chimney so there is approximately 1/4" of clearance (Figure 6).

NOTE: If the top chimney section (included) will be installed, slide the top section inside
of the bottom section at this point.
3. Slide chimney in place so top tabs of the chimney are secured in place on the indents
of the vertical chimney bracket and the backside of the chimney fits between the hood
and the wall with the bottom tabs overlapping the back lip of the hood (Figure 7).
4. To install the upper section, mark the location of the included horizontal mounting
bracket using the bracket as a template. Make sure the bracket is level and in line
with the bottom section. The height will be dependent on your installation require-
ments. Make sure the slots in the side of the chimney will match the holes in the
mounting bracket. If installing onto drywall, drill holes into wall using a 3/16" drill bit.
Install wall anchors into the drilled holes (one for each hole). Secure bracket into
place with (2) provided #6 x 1" screws. If installing into other material (brick, cement,
plaster, etc.) choose an appropriate fastner capable of supporting the weight of the
chimney (Figure 8).
