I am trying to hook up the chimney to my lopi answer insert but when I get it into the zc fireplace there is very little room to get it hooked up. I can get my hand back there but I can not get it to push down on the collar. Any suggestions? thanks
Usually in a situation like that if it is started in the flue collar you can settle it in by going up top and rotating the liner a little bit while applying a small amount of downward pressure. Sometimes they just drop in by rotating the liner.
After you have a couple of screws in the flue collar go back up and take the liner weight back off of it and button down the top plate and cap.
The inserts I have worked with you can take the air tubes and baffle out, then stick your hand up through the hole in the top of the stove to line it up.
