IMPORTANT: Read all instructions and warnings carefully before starting installation. Failure to

follow these instructions may result in a possible fire hazard and will void the warranty.

Description

The BR/BC Series fireplaces are solid fuel, woodburning
fireplaces. The BR36/42 (Builder Radiant) is a clean-face
fireplace and the BC36/42 (Builder Circulating) unit has

fixed grilles.

Precautions

CFM Specialty Home Products fireplaces and component
parts have been highly tested and will operate safely
when installed in accordance with instructions provided in
this manual. Carefully read and understand all instruc­tions before beginning installation.

If you notice any damage to fireplace or component parts,
immediately report damage to your Majestic Fireplaces

instructions).

• Installation other than as instructed by CFM

Specialty Home Products; or

• Installation and/or use of any component part

not manufactured or approved by CFM Spe­cialty Home Products in combination or assem­bly with a Majestic Fireplaces fireplace system,
notwithstanding any independent testing
laboratory or other third party approval of such
component parts or accessory.

Any such action may possibly cause a fire hazard.

Consult local building codes to ensure that you are in
compliance before installing the fireplace.

Fireplaces must be vented to the out-of-doors.

Do not obstruct or modify air inlets/outlets in any
manner.

Do not install combustible materials on any of the
black fireplace surround.

Burn only solid wood fuel or gas logs.
Do not install a solid fuel burning insert or other

products not specified for use with this fireplace.
These fireplaces are not approved for installation in

mobile homes.

Proposition 65 Warning: Fuels used in gas,

woodburning or oil fired appliances, and the products of
combustion of such fuels, contain chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects
and other reproductive harm.
California Health & Safety Code Sec. 25249.6

Drafts

The fireplace should not be located in areas that create
drafts (ie: frequently opened doors and central heating air
inlets/outlets) that hamper the normal flow of air into the

fire.

Gas Logs

If you plan to install a gas log, the gas line should be
installed before framing the fireplace. The gas line must
be installed by a certified gas line installer.

The offset (first) elbow of any pair does
not have straps.

* In Canada, two (2) SK845 are allowed.

C. The chimney cannot be more than 30˚
(45˚ in Canada) from the vertical plane in
any installation*.

D. The maximum length of the angled run
of the total chimney system is 20 feet. (G
plus H cannot exceed 20 feet.)

E. A chimney support (Model SKCS8) is
required every 6 feet of angled run of
chimney . Chimney supports are required
for every 30 feet and 60 feet (SK8 pipe)
or 20 feet and 40 feet (3-wall pipe) of
vertical chimney height above the hearth.

Determine the offset distance of your
chimney arrangement from the centerline
of the fireplace to the centerline of the
chimney where it is to pass through the
first ceiling.

NOTE: This offset distance may not be
your full offset distance. See Examples 2
and 3.

Planning Information

Preplanning an installation is very important to ensure
safety and to save time and money. An installer must
predetermine where a fireplace will be set and how the
chimney system will be run.

Mounting the Fireplace

A fireplace may only be mounted on the following
surfaces:

1. A flat combustible surface.

2. A raised wooden platform.

3. A concrete block or other solid object placed beneath
each of the four (4) corners of the fireplace.

The fireplace must be spaced 1/2" (13mm) from a
combustible back wall and 1/2" (13mm) from a combus-

tible side wall or support. (Page 14, Fig. 20)

(Fig. 6) Never install a chimney below minimum
heights.

In planning a chimney system, it is important to know:

1. The height of a chimney is measured from the

hearth to the exit point on the termination.

2. A chimney cannot be offset more than 30° from a

vertical plane.

3. A chimney may run straight up or it may be neces-

sary to offset it to avoid obstructions.

4. The maximum length of an angled run (total chim­ney system) is 20' (6m).

5. No more than 2 offsets (4 total 30° elbows in U.S./or
2 total 45° elbows in Canada) per fireplace may be
used.

6. A guy wire stabilizer is required for chimneys
extending more than 6' (1.8m) above a roof line.

The Ten Foot Rule

Major U.S. building codes specify a minimum chimney
height above the roof top. The “Ten Foot Rule” is a fire
safety rule and not a draft rule. To ensure proper draft,
it is recommended that you always meet or exceed the
“Ten Foot Rule,” especially when installing a termina­tion on a high pitch roof. (Fig. 8)

The key points of the "Ten Foot Rule" are:

1. If the horizontal distance from the chimney to the

peak of the roof is 10' (3m) or less, the top of the
chimney must be at least 2' (610mm) above the peak
of the roof, but never less than 3' (914mm) in height
above the highest point where it passes through the
roof.

2. If a horizontal distance from the chimney to the peak

of the roof is more than 10' (3m), a chimney height
reference point is established on the surface of the
roof a distance of 10' (3m) from the chimney in a
horizontal plane. The top of the chimney must be at
least 2' (610mm) above the reference point, but
never less than 3' (914mm) in height above the

highest point where it passes through the roof.

Chimney Supports

The chimney system is supported by the fireplace for
vertical chimney heights less than 30' (9m) above the
hearth. Chimney supports are required if the vertical
height exceeds 30' (9m) with SK8 chimneys or 20' (6m)
with 3-wall chimneys. Locate chimney supports at
ceiling holes or other structural framing at 30' (9m)
(SK8) or 20' (6m) (3-wall) heights. Spacing between
chimney supports must not exceed 30' (9m) (SK8) or
20' (6m) (3-wall). Use Chimney Support Model
SKCS8. (NOTE: The SKCS8 can not be mounted
directly to the fireplace.) Support provided by elbow
straps fulfills the support requirement only if they are
spaced as previously described. (A chimney support is
2¹⁄₂" (64mm) long when installed.)

Angled chimney runs require a support every 6' (1.8m)
in addition to the elbow straps. Chimney supports are

used for this function. (Fig. 9)

Chase Installation

A chase is a vertical box-like structure which encloses
the fireplace and/or chimney. Chases are typically built
on the outside of the house with fireplace opening cut
into the outer wall of a room. (Page 5, Fig. 5)

If you need help in determining fireplace location or
how the chimney system should be run, contact your
Majestic Fireplaces dealer for assistance.

Installation

Insulating Fireplace Enclosure For Cold

Climates

If you live in a cold climate, it is not required but
highly recommended that you insulate fireplace
enclosure to eliminate cold air penetration as much as
possible.

Insulate base of fireplace with a noncombustible
insulation rated for a minimum of 300°F. Insulating is
very important for outside wall installations over a
concrete slab. If fireplace is installed on a platform,
insulation should be placed on top of the platform
before fireplace is set. (Fig. 10)

When a fireplace is installed in a chase or on a
outside wall, enclosure should be treated like any
outside wall in a home. Insulation should be installed
on the inside wall as well as the outside wall(s). In a
chase, it is also a good idea to install a firestop at the
first ceiling level above the fireplace and enclose the
chase with sheeting material. Insulation may then be
installed above sheeting material to assure the space
around the fireplace is totally protected. (Fig. 5)

When installing the chimney , DO NOT caulk between
outer pipe and firestop. It is vital that some air be
allowed to flow through this very thin gap.

CAUTION: WHEN INSTALLING A FIREPLACE IN
AN INSULATED ENCLOSURE, BE SURE ALL
REQUIRED AIR SPACES ARE MAINTAINED. (Page
14, Figure 20)

Framing

Framing can be constructed before or after the fire­place is set in place, however, most installers build the
frame before setting the fireplace.

Frame fireplace with 2 x 4 lumber or heavier materials.
Refer to framing dimensions in Figures 1, 2, 3 or 4 for
basic fireplace specifications.

NOTE: When using 2 x 6 framing construction, the
allowable air space between the front of the SK8
outer pipe and 2 x 6 framing is reduced to 1"
(25mm) as tested and approved by U.L. for use in
both the United States and Canada.

NOTE: Framing should be positioned to accommodate

wall covering and fireplace facing material.

Installing Electrical Wire

(for Circulator Models)

If a circulating fireplace is to be installed, run the 120
VAC, 60 Hz wiring to the left side of installation. Wiring
must be completed before the fireplace is secured and
finish material applied.

Remove the cover plate and electrical knock-out on the
lower left side of the fireplace and set aside. Follow the
instructions on Page 10 for proper wiring and installa­tion of the EB1.

If the fan kit is not being installed with the fireplace, it is
highly recommended that 120 VAC supply be made
available since someone may elect to install a blower at

a later date.

Hard Flat
Surface

Insulation

Option For Circulating Models Only —

EB1 (Receptacle) Hook-Up:

• Wiring should be installed by a certified
electrician.

• Turn off circuit breaker before wiring models.
Once fireplace is secured, complete wiring the fan kit.

Remove knockout in the center of the back of the
EB1 and install listed cable clamps. Feed electrical
wire through listed cable clamp leaving approximately
6" (159mm) of wire exposed through the EB1.
Secure listed cable clamp to the wire.

Attach white wire from power source to one (1) wire
of receptacle and secure with nut. Attach black wire
from power source to the other wire of receptacle and
secure with nut. Be sure nuts are secured tightly.

Secure EB1 assembly to inside of electrical box
coverplate using two screws. Attach cover to face of
the EB1 while being careful to position excess wire
completely within the EB1, then attach coverplate to
fireplace.

Install Fan Kit Assembly

Refer to optional Model FK12 fan kit assembly
installation instructions for field installation.

Chimney Set-up

Since you have already preplanned the chimney run,
you should know exactly how the installation is to be
accomplished — how much pipe is required, the
number of elbows, if any, and type of termination to be
used.

CAUTION: REPORT TO YOUR DEALERS ANY
PARTS DAMAGED IN SHIPMENT, SPECIFICALLY
CHECK THE END CONNECTION OF CHIMNEY
SECTIONS AND ELBOWS.

NOTE: Fireplaces may use CFM Corporation Model
SK8, or Model S (three wall) chimney systems. The BR/
BC Series Fireplace will accept the SK8 chimney
system as is; but a TWABR adapter collar is required
when using the Model S (triple wall) chimney system.
The installation procedure described in this manual
applies only to the SK8 system. Either chimney system

may be used, but may not be mixed.

Straight-Up Chimney Installation

To mark the centerline of the flue, put the fireplace in
final position and measure out from the wall: 8¹⁄₄"
(210mm)

Mark a spot on the ceiling directly above the fireplace.
Draw a line parallel to the back wall through this mark.
(Fig. 11)

Using a plumb bob positioned directly over center point
of fireplace flue collar, mark the ceiling to establish the
chimney center point. (Fig. 11)

Chimney Centerline

Plumb Line

Determine offset distance of your chimney arrangement
from centerline of fireplace to centerline of chimney
where it is to pass through ceiling.

Locate center point of the chimney on ceiling as though
a straight up chimney arrangement is to be used.
Measure your offset dimension from straight up chim-

ney center point on ceiling.

Ceiling Chimney Hole/
Possible Obstructions

The size of the hole in ceiling will vary with the angle at
which the chimney passes through ceiling.

Drive a nail up through ceiling at marked chimney
center point. Go to floor above and see where hole will
be cut. Check to see where existing ceiling joists and
other possible obstructions are located...i.e. wiring,
plumbing etc... If necessary, re-position chimney and/or

fireplace to avoid obstructions.

Cutting the Hole

Cover fireplace collar opening and cut proper sized
chimney hole in chimney. The SK8 pipe allows you to
run pipe through a typical 16” on center joist without

cutting joists.

offset chimney from vertical. This is accomplished by
using CFM Corporation elbows. Use the 30°

Elbow

table on Page 6 to determine proper offset and

parts required.
Each offset requires two (2) elbows. The second elbow

is equipped with support straps. It is very important to
install the second elbow in each offset as close to the
ceiling or support as possible so that the elbow straps
can be secured to framing members to help support the

weight of the chimney.

Offset

Framing the Ceiling Hole

Frame the ceiling chimney hole as shown in Figure 12.
It is good practice to use framing lumber that is the
same size as the ceiling joists; this is a requirement at
attic level.

Fig. 13 Ceiling chimney hole sizes necessary for installing
firestop spacer.

The inside dimension of the frame must be the same
as the hole size selected from Figure 13 in order to
provide the required 1¹⁄₂" (38mm) of air space between
the outside diameter of the chimney and the edges of

the framed ceiling hole.

Positioning, Safety Strips, Securing the

Fireplace

Slide fireplace into position.
Lift the fireplace front slightly and slide the metal safety

strips under front bottom edge about 1¹⁄₂" (38mm),
allowing the remainder to extend in front of firebox.
Overlap strips at least 1/2" (13mm) to provide a positive
joint. (Flat safety strips are packed with fireplace.) (Fig. 14)

Safety strips are used to ensure that any combustible
materials in front of the fireplace are protected even
though a noncombustible hearth extension is required.

If fireplace is to be elevated above the floor, a “Z”
shaped metal safety strip must be fabricated and used
to protect combustible surfaces in front of the fireplace.
This “Z” shaped safety strip is not provided but must be
fabricated of metal with each horizontal leg at least 1¹⁄₂"
(38mm) wide and equal in length to the metals strips
provided with the fireplace.

Note: Safety strips are not required over noncombus­tible floors where all supports at the base of the fire­place are noncombustible.

Four (4) nailing flanges are supplied with the fireplace
(found on the fireplace hearth). To level the box and
secure it firmly in place, remove the nailing flanges from
the hearth and install at the sides of the fireplace as

shown in Figure 15.

Installing Outside Air Kit

An outside air kit is installed in all BR/BC Series Fire­places. If desired, or if local codes mandate the use of
an air kit, then an AK-MST is required to complete the
installation (from air kit to the outdoors). If the outside
air kit is to be used, the AK-MST MUST be installed
BEFORE the fireplace is enclosed. Refer to the AK­MST instructions for field installation.

Installing the Chimney System

Start by attaching the first chimney section to the collar
on top of the fireplace.

Install the pipe as pictured in Figure 16. When you get
a good lock, you will hear the pipe clearly snap to­gether. Once sections are snap-locked in place, it is
extremely difficult to get them apart. Make sure the

pipe is firmly snapped and locked together as each
pipe section is mounted.

When installing elbows, only outer pipe will snap- lock.
Middle pipes simply slide into position. Be sure to
always attach straps on upper elbow to a structural
framing member. (Fig. 17)

Continue installing the pipe as required until pipe is
installed up through the ceiling. At this point, you must

install a firestop spacer.

Installing the Firestop Spacer

in the Ceiling Hole

A firestop spacer is used to keep pipe spaced properly
and required for safety.

Nail the firestop spacer (at each corner) to the framing
members of the ceiling hole. NOTE: A firestop spacer
is not required at the roof.

Hole sizes listed in Figure 13 for angled firestop spac­ers provide minimum required air space to chimney
pipe for ceiling thickness up to 8" (203mm). When
combined thickness of ceiling material, ceiling joists and
flooring material exceeds 8" (203mm), adjustments
must be made in framing to assure that minimum air

spaces to chimney are maintained.

Proper Firestop Spacer Installation

Figure 18 shows different installation procedures for
both an area that is an attic and an area that
attic.

If the area above the ceiling
is not an attic, position the
firestop spacer with the

Attic Insulation

flange on the ceiling side
and the angled portion
extending up into the hole.

If the area above the ceiling
is an attic, position the
firestop spacer with the
flange on the top of the
framed hole and the angled
portion extending down into
the hole.

Canadian Requirements for

Insulation Shield

In Canada, an attic insulation shield is required to
prevent attic insulation from contacting the chimney
section. Framing dimensions for the chimney hole
should measure 14¹⁄₂" x 14¹⁄₂" (368 x 368mm). An attic
shield MUST be installed on top of attic joists (above
the floor level). (Fig. 19)

Install the attic insulation shield with the flanges on its
base extending down into the framing hole. Nail each
corner of attic insulation shield to the framing members
of the ceiling hole using 8d nails. Attic shields are not

required at the roof.

Continue Installing Pipe to Complete Run

Continue attaching pipe sections to complete system to
next level always being careful that the pipe is firmly
snapped locked in place before proceeding to next pipe

section.

Majestic Fireplaces® BR/BC Series

FP263

Fig. 19 Attic shield installlation (Canadian requirement).

Locate Chimney Centerpoint On Roof

Use same procedure detailed in locating center point of
the flue system.

Drive a nail up through roof at the center point. This will
determine center point on outside of the roof.

Cut and Frame Roof Hole

Chimney Supports

If chimney supports are required, they are installed the
same as elbows. Nail chimney support straps to
adjacent structural framing, as shown on Figure 9,
Page 8. Bend straps as necessary and make sure they
are secure so they will support the weight of the chim­ney. A chimney support is 2¹⁄₂" (64mm) long when
installed. Consider this dimension when determining
how many straight chimney sections are needed.

NOTE: Chimney supports are generally used in long
runs in a chase installation.

Additional Ceilings

If you encounter additional ceilings, repeat same steps
required for first ceiling installation. See firestop

illustration on Page 12, Figure 18.

Penetrating the Roof

Run pipe to roofline. Since chimney system must be
vented to the out-of-doors, you must use an approved
termination.

If a chase is used, refer to the installation manual
provided with the termination cap.

Size of roof hole varies with the type of chimney
termination installed. Refer to installation instructions
provided with the chimney termination to find correct
size of roof hole.

There must be a 1¹⁄₂" (38mm) air space between
outermost portion of chimney sections and any adjacent
combustible surfaces. (Combustible surfaces include
burnable materials such as: ceiling members, joists,
flooring, combustible insulation and roof structures.)

WARNING: DO NOT PACK REQUIRED AIR SPACES
WITH INSULATION OR OTHER MATERIALS.

Mark an outline of the roof hole around the center of the
point nail. NOTE: Hole dimensions given in the chim­ney top installation instructions are horizontal dimen-
sions; therefore, the hole size must be marked on the
roof accordingly.

Cover the opening of the installed chimney so debris
cannot get into the system.

Cut and frame the hole. It is good practice to use
framing lumber that is the same size as the rafters.
Install the frame securely because the chimney top and
flashing anchored to the frame must be able to with­stand heavy winds.

Majestic Fireplaces® BR/BC Series

Install Remainder of Chimney Sections

Since you have already preplanned the height of your
termination according to the

Ten Foot Rule

, continue to

install pipe to the predetermined height.
Check the chimney top installation instructions for

details on how high above the roof top the chimney
sections (all pipes) should extend.

Installing Top Housing

or Termination

Follow the installation instructions provided with the
chimney termination you have selected.

Installing Chimney In a Chase

Refer to Page 5, Figure 5 for an illustration of a typical
chase installation.

CAUTION: Treatment of firestop spacers and construc­tion of chase may vary with type of building. These
instructions are not a substitute for local building codes.
You must check your local building codes to determine
specific requirements for your city or state. NOTE:
Other building materials may be required in addition to

Firestop Spacers.

Finishing

CAUTION: All joints between the finished wall and the

fireplace surround (top/sides) must be sealed with
noncombustible material to prevent cold air leakage into
the room. Only noncombustible material may be applied
to the facing of the fireplace surround. (Black painted

area) (Fig. 20)

Finish Wall

Finish the wall with material of your choice. Do not
install a combustible mantel shelf less than 12"
(305mm) from the top of the fireplace opening for
radiant models and 12" (305mm) from top of grille
opening for circulating models. Do not install a
mantel face plate less than 6" (159mm) from top of
fireplace opening for radiant models and 6"
(159mm) from top of grille opening for circulating
models. (Fig. 22) If a combustible material is used

below a flat mantel shelf, consult your local building
codes for minimum clearance from top of fireplace
opening to bottom of mantel shelf.

All joints (top, bottom and sides) where wall or decora­tive facing material meets fireplace surround must be
completely sealed with a noncombustible material.
(Figures 21 and 22)

NOTE: No side wall protection is required for fireplaces
installed at 45° to two (2) side walls (corner installation).

Side Wall Protection

Adjacent combustible side walls that are within mini­mum dimensions shown in Figure 23 of the fireplace
opening must be protected with CFM Corporation Wall
Shield Model SP40 or a specifically built wall shield
described in Figure 20.

The special wall shield design described in Figure 20 is
an alternate method of adding protection to side walls
and can be used in place of the SP40 with the same
wall clearances specified for the SP40. Rt must =1.85
minimum.

Examples of wall shield insulation:

1. Manville - CERAFORM 126, K=.27,
1/2 inches thick

2. CFM Corporation - EH2416, K = .458,
1 inch thick required.

Hearth Installation

A hearth extension is required to protect a combustible
floor in front of the fireplace. Refer to Figure 23 for
minimum dimensions and mounting detail.

NOTE: Hearth Extension must not cover the air
inlet opening of a fireplace.

The hearth extension described in Figure 23 must be a
durable noncombustible material with a minimum (total)
Rt value of 1.09; see Figure 24 for examples. The
overall height (above a combustible floor), depth and
width must be as indicated, with the extension centered
to the fireplace opening.

The top of insulation must be covered with a noncom­bustible decorative covering or a piece of .018” mini­mum sheet metal, to protect hearth extension material.

(Fig. 23)
Secure the hearth extension to the floor to prevent

shifting, using trim molding or other similar means at
three (3) outer edges. Seal crack between the fireplace
hearth and hearth extension with a noncombustible

material. (Figs. 23 and 25)

Installing Line For Gas Log

CFM Specialty Home Products fireplaces are designed
to accept a 1/2 inch gas line for installation of an
approved gas appliance. (CFM Specialty Home
Products manufactures a wide variety of gas logs for
use in CFM Specialty Home Products fireplaces.)

Be sure to have the appliance installed in accordance
with building codes.

Gas connection may enter from either left or right side
of the fireplace.

Locate appropriate gas line in the outer casing of
fireplace and remove insulation from gas line tube.
(Fig. 26)

From inside the fireplace, locate the knockout on the
firebrick -- be sure you are on the appropriate or "gas
line" side of the fireplace. Using a flat bladed screw­driver or small chisel and hammer, carefully tap around
the knockout until it loosens and falls out.

Install 1/2 inch certified gas pipe through opening. After
gas pipe installation is complete, use insulation that
was removed from gas line tube to repack space
around the pipe. Material should be inserted from
outside of the fireplace and packed tightly to totally seal
between the pipe and tube.

Note: Gas pipe should not come in contact with
any wood structures until it has reached a point at
least one (1) inch away from fireplace side.

NOTE: When installing an ANSI Z21.11.2 ventless

appliance, the finishing material used for the mantel
must be rated at 250°F or greater.

BTU input of a gas appliance installed in fireplace
should be rated less than 100,000 BTU/Hr.

Gas pipe installation is intended for connection to a
decorative gas appliance only when (1.) incorporating
an automatic shutoff device and (2.) complying with the
Standard for Decorative Gas Appliances for Installation
in Vented Fireplaces (ANSI Z21.60) or CSA draft
requirements for Gas-Fired Log Lighters for
Woodburning Fireplaces (Draft No. 4, August 1993).

Decorative gas appliance should be installed in accor­dance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
(latest edition).
