INTERIOR INSTALLATION WITH CATHEDRAL CEILING (CONT’D)

4

Steep pitched cathedral ceilings may require the 

use of a Support Extension. This piece fits down 

inside the Support and can be adjusted to increase 

the support’s length by up to 22”. 

The extension is attached to the support using the 

eight metal screws provided. Be sure there is at 

least a 2” overlap where the extension joins the 

support. See Figure 12

be added to the support, and box exten-

sion. Approved insulation must be listed / 

compliant with ASTM E136/ULC S114 as 

Non-Combustible, have a melting tempera-

ture above 2000°F/1100°C, and be water 

resistant with low moisture absorption. 

Materials such as rockwool or mineral wool 

qualify.

This support is designed to be used in rooms 

with cathedral ceilings (no attic space between 

the ceiling and the roof).  If the support is used 

as a regular floor support, follow the 

instructions on page 5 (refer to fig.8 for visual 

reference)

Situate the chimney in a convenient location as near as 

possible to the appliance outlet. 

Cut and frame a hole in the roof for the support.  The 

sides of this hole must be vertical (Fig. 7) (see chart on 

page 3)

From above, place the support in the opening.  Lower it 

to a convenient height.

Note: The cone portion of the support must extend 

below the ceiling.  The minimum horizontal 

distance between the single wall  stove pipe and 

the ceiling is 18".  It can be reduced it a listed stove 

pipe is used.

Using a level, make sure the support is vertical.  If the 

support extends above the roof, cut it flush with the top 

of the roof.  Nail the support to the framed opening 

using 12-3" spiral nails.

TO CONTINUE SEE PREVIOUS STEP  ...           ON PAGE 5

This support is similar in application 

and installation as the cathedral 

support (XCS).  Install it using the 

instructions on page 5  (refer to Fig. 9 

for visual references).

  

SUPPORT EXTENSION (PS)

Steep pitched cathedral ceilings may 

require the use of a square support 

extension (PS).  This piece fits down 

inside the square support and can be 

adjusted to increase the support's 

length by up to 16". 
The extension is attached to the 

support using the eight (8) metal 

screws provided.  Be sure there is at 

least a 2" overlap where the extension joins the support (see 

Fig. 10).
