EXTERIOR INSTALLATION (CONT’D) 

Step 2. Wood walls: Place the exterior half of the 

Wall Thimble in the opening from the outside. 

Fasten in place using (4) 2” nails or 1” screws. 

This Wall Thimble is adjustable from 7” to 12”.  

(see Figure 9).

 Make sure the insulation pad 

is cut to the desired length according to the 

wall thickness. Place the interior half of the 

Wall Thimble inside the exterior half of the 

Wall Thimble. 

     Using a level make sure that the hole for the 

chimney to pass through is horizontal. Screw 

the inner thimble in place with the provided 

screws. 

(see Figure 10).

NOTE:

  The cavity surrounding the radiation shield 

must be filled with any insulation 

(see Figure 

10).

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

Step 3. The minimum length of insulated chimney 

required to pass through the wall will be wall 

thickness plus 7". The insulated chimney must 

extend at least 5" into the room beyond the 

finished  wall.  Insert  this  chimney  length  in 

the side branch of the insulated tee. Turn it 

clockwise to lock it in place. Seal this joint by 

wrapping it with the aluminum tape supplied 

with the tee. 

Step 4: Fasten a chimney length to the top of the Tee.

Step 5: The Wall Support should be installed on the 

first vertical chimney section above the Tee. 

Tighten the Universal Band locking the bolt 

just enough to hold the Wall Support in place.

Step 6. This step will require 2 people:

 (see Figure 

11).  

 

Insert the chimney length of this tee-support 

assembly into the hole in the wall. Using a 

level, ensure the tee is vertical, then attach the 

support to the wall using (8) Nº. 10 x 1 - 1/4" 

wood screws or 4" spiral nails. Tighten the 

collar nut and bolt.

 

NOTE:

 To provide sufficient strength, the nails 

must be driven into the wall studs. For concrete 

walls, the support should be attached using 

(8) 1/4" x 2" lag bolts.

Step 7: Attach the clean-out cap to the Tee.

Step 8. Attach the flue extension to the horizontal 

chimney length. 

Step 9. Stack a chimney length on top of the length. 

Turn it clockwise to lock it in place. Continue 

until the required chimney height is reached.

NOTE:

 At 8’ intervals, attach the chimney to the wall 

using a Wall Band (AWBU).
