FACTORY BUILT CHIMNEY

When a metal prefabricated chimney is used, the manufacturer’s installation instructions must be followed.  

You must also purchase (from the same manufacturer) and install the ceiling support package or wall pass-

through and “T” section package, firestops (where needed), insulation shield, roof flashing, chimney cap, etc.  

Maintain proper clearance to the structure as recommended by the manufacturer.  The chimney must be 

the required height above the roof or other obstructions for safety and proper draft operation.
