INSTALLATION

CHIMNEY HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS

The chimney must extend 3 feet (914 mm) above the level of roof penetration and a minimum of 2 feet (610

mm)higher than any roof surface within 10 feet (305 cm) (see below). Check with your local building officials for any additional requirements for your area.

Due to prevailing winds, local terrain, adjacent tall trees, a hill, or ravine near the home, or adjacent structures, additional chimney height or a special chimney cap may be required to ensure optimum performance.

DRAFT REQUIREMENTS

The appliance is merely one component of a larger sys- tem. The other equally important component is the vent- ing system. This is necessary for achieving the required flow of combustion air to the fire chamber and for safely removing unwanted combustion byproducts from the ap- pliance. If the venting system's design does not promote these ends, the system may not function properly. Poorly functioning venting systems may create performance problems as well as be a safety hazard (i.e. an oversized chimney may result in less than optimum performance.

Top of the flue must be 2’ (610 mm) higher than any part of roof within 10’ (305 cm) horizontal

Top of the flue must be 3’ (915

mm)higher than highest point of roof penetration

These rules are minimums. in some instances, chimney height may need to be increased to achieve sufficient draft.

Installations into a large, masonry chimney may require a liner to improve performance). A draft test should read greater than .04' W.C. (inches water column) and less than .08" W.C.

American National Standards Institute ANSI/NFPA 211-

92: A chimney or vent shall be so designed and con-

structed to develop a flow sufficient to completely remove

all flue and vent gases to the outside atmosphere. The

To achieve a stable draft, the total flue height required (from the appliance to termination) is 12 to 15 feet (366 to 457 cm) minimum.

venting system shall satisfy the draft requirements of the

connected appliance in accordance with the manufac-

turer instructions.
