VENTING USING A MASONRY CHIMNEY
The following additional requirements apply when a lined
masonry chimney is being used to vent the compact unit
heater.
IMPORTANT
Single appliance venting of a fan-assisted unit heater
into a tile lined masonry chimney (interior or outside wall)
is prohibited. The chimney must rst be lined with either
type “B-1“ vent or an insulated single-wall exible vent
lining system, sized in accordance with venting tables in
the ANSI Z223.1, or CSA-B149 installation compliance
codes.
1 - Masonry chimneys used to vent Category I units
heaters must be either tile-lined or lined with a listed
metal lining system or dedicated gas vent. Unlined
masonry chimneys are prohibited. A category I
appliance must never be connected to a chimney
that is servicing a solid fuel appliance. If a replace
chimney ue is used to vent this appliance, the
replace opening must be permanently sealed.
2 - A fan-assisted unit heater may be commonly vented
into an existing lined masonry chimney provided:
a. The chimney is currently serving at least one draft-hood
equipped appliance.
b. The vent connector and chimney are sized in accordance
with venting tables.
3 - A “B1” double-wall vent or masonry chimney liner
shall terminate above the roof surface with a listed
cap or a listed roof assembly in accordance with
the terms of their respective listings and the vent
manufacturer’s instructions.
4 - Do not install a manual damper, barometric draft
regulator, or ue restrictor between the unit heater
and the chimney.
5 - If type “B1” double-wall vent is used inside a chimney,
no other appliance can be vented into the chimney.
Outer wall of type “B” vent pipe must not be exposed
to ue products.
6 - Insulation for the exible vent pipe must be an
encapsulated berglass sleeve recommended by
the exible vent pipe manufacturer.
7 - The space between liner and chimney wall should
NOT be insulated with pued mica or any other loose
granular insulating material.
