ROOF OUTLET REQUIREMENT
CHIMNEY REQUIREMENT
Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another appliance!
Émifocus requirement: the total length of flue (inside + outside) must be 10 feet minimum (13 feet for an installation less than
3 miles from the ocean or if a 30° elbow is necessary).
The émifocus must be connected to a chimney complying with the requirements for Type HT chimneys in the standard for
Chimneys, Factorybuilt, Residential Type and Building Heating Appliance, UL 103. For example, a class A insulated stainless
steel flue chimney system with an 8-inch minimum inside diameter.

STRUCTURAL REQUIREMENT
CAUTION
THE FRAMING SUPPORTING THE ANCHOR PLATE (WALL STRUCTURE, PARTITION, ETC.) MUST BE SIZED IN
CONGRUENCE WITH THE FIREPLACE STATIC AND DYNAMIC CHARGES. THE SIZE CALCULATION FOR THE
SUPPORT IS NOT THE RESPONSIBILITY OF FOCUS OR ITS AFFILIATES. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO
CONSULT WITH AN ENGINEER OR ARCHITECT FOR YOUR PROJECT.
CONNECTOR
Connectors are all non-insulated chimney parts including focus flue, focus 8’’ universal adaptor and the chimney manufacturer
finishing collar with adapter.
To avoid heat traps the chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or
a floor, or ceiling.
Passage through an attic, roof frame floor, or ceiling must be done using an insulated chimney respecting all chimney
manufacturer clearances.
CAUTION
PASSAGE THROUGH A WALL OR PARTITION OF COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION IS NOT AN APPROPRIATE
INSTALLATION FOR THIS FOCUS FIREPLACE.
FRESH AIR INTAKE
For optimum functioning, focus requires a fresh air intake in the room (ideally at the back of the fire). We recommend deflect-O
A0684 semi rigid aluminium duct. The wall plate is supplied with a fresh air control.
Minimum fresh air intake size:
fresh air intake
This fresh air intake is compulsory
when operating venting appliances
such as kitchen hoods, permanent
air extractors or any appliances
creating an air depression in the
habitation.
