2.Use only undamaged parts and accessories.

3.Enclose the chimney where it passes through the living spaces to prevent contact with and possible dam-age to the chimney.

4.Install firestop spacers at each ceiling level.

5.Install the proper chimney cap or chimney housing on the chimney to prevent the entry of rain and debris into the chimney and to assure the proper venting of smoke.

6.Do not use more than four (4) elbows in the chimney.

NOTE: To select the proper chimney height, refer to Figure 3. The flue outlet must be a minimum of 3’ above the highest point where the chimney penetrates the roof and a minimum of 2’ above all portions of the building within 10’.
