A. Chimney Requirements

Vertical distances are measured from the base of the fire-

place.
Minimum overall straight height is 6 ft 4 in. if the fireplace

is freestanding and a minimum of 10 ft from a combustible

structure.

See Figure 3.2.

• Chimney must extend 2 ft (.6 m) above any portion

of the roof within 10 ft (3 m) of the chimney. Refer to

Figure 6.1.

To determine the chimney components needed to complete

your particular installation, follow the steps below:
• Determine the total vertical height of the fireplace

installation. This dimension is measured from the base of

the fireplace assembly to the point where the smoke exits

the termination cap.

• Subtract the effective height of the fireplace assembly from

the overall height of the fireplace installation (measured

from the base of the fireplace to the bottom of the

termination cap).

• Refer to Table 5.1 to determine what components must

be selected to complete the fireplace installation.

• Determine the number of ceiling firestops, stabilizers,

roof flashing, etc. required to complete the fireplace

installation.
