E. Chimney Termination Requirements

Follow manufacturer’s instructions for clearance, securing
flashing and terminating the chimney.

Must have an approved and Listed cap

Must not be located where it will become plugged by

snow or other material

• Must terminate at least 3 feet (91cm) above the roof

and at least 2 feet (61cm) above any portion of the

roof within 10 feet (305cm).

• Must be located away from trees or other structures

D. Locating Your Stove & Chimney

Location of the appliance and chimney will affect perfor-

mance. As shown in

Figure 27.1 the chimney should:

• Install through the warm space enclosed by the build-

ing envelope. This helps to produce more draft, espe-

cially during lighting and die down of the fire.

• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes

the affects of wind turbulence and down drafts.

• Consider the appliance location in order to avoid

floor and ceiling attic joists and rafters.

Locate termination cap away from trees, adjacent

structures, uneven roof lines and other obstruc-

tions.

Your local dealer is the expert in your geographic area and

can usually make suggestions or discover solutions that will

easily correct your flue problem.

NOTICE:

• Chimney performance may vary.
• Trees, buildings, roof lines and wind conditions affect

performance.

• Chimney height may need adjustment if smoking or

overdraft occurs.

NOTICE: Locating the appliance in a basement or in a location

of considerable air movement can cause intermittent smoke

spillage from appliance. Do not locate appliance near

• Frequently open doors
• Central heat outlets or returns
