FACTORY BUILT CHIMNEY
When a metal prefabricated chimney is used, the
manufacturer’s installation instructions must be followed.
You must also purchase (from the same manufacturer)
and install the ceiling support package or wall pass-
through and “T” section package, firestops (where
needed), insulation shield, roof flashing, chimney cap,
etc. Maintain proper clearance to the structure as
recommended by the manufacturer. The chimney
must be the required height above the roof or other
obstructions for safety and proper draft operation.
MASONRY CHIMNEY
Ensure that a masonry chimney meets the minimum
standards of the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA) by having it inspected by a professional. Make
sure there are no cracks, loose mortar or other signs
of deterioration and blockage. Have the chimney
cleaned before the stove is installed and operated.
When connecting the stove through a combustible wall
to a masonry chimney, special methods are needed.
