4- Then, from outside the building, slide a short chimney length (attached to the tee) through the wall thimble. The chimney must extend at least 3 inches into the living space where it attaches to the stove pipe.
5- You can now install the wall support. Simply slide the wall support up to the tee, ensuring that the adapter on the support engages with the female coupler on the bottom of the tee. When the wall support is level and properly positioned, you can use lag bolts to secure it into the wall studs. TO complete the installation, install an insulated tee plug below the wall support.
6- You can start to add chimney sections. We recommend that you also use locking bands to secure all connections. You will need to secure the chimney to the house using wall bands. Wall bands wrap around the chimney and then attach to the wall. Install the first one 3 feet above the wall support. Then, you will need another band for each 8 feet of chimney. Note: if your chimney must be installed through your soffit, install a roof flashing above and finishing plate below where the roof is cut. Consult the following section called “CEILING SUPPORT SYSTEM” for more details.
