”.  Effective length is built into this

chart.

b.

After determining the offset dimension, refer to
Table 1 and find the “A” dimension closest to 

but

not less than

the distance of shift needed for your

installation.

c.

The “B” dimension that coincides with the “A”
dimension represents the required vertical clear-
ance that  is needed to complete the offset and
return.

d.

Read across the chart and find the number of
chimney sections required and the model number
of those particular chimney parts.

e.

Whenever the chimney penetrates a floor/ceiling,
a  firestop spacer must be installed.

Example:

Your “A” dimension from Figure 8  is 14

".

Using Table 1, the dimension closest to but not
less than 14

2

" is 14

8

" using a 30° offset/return.  It

is then determined from the table that you would
need 33” (Dimension “B”) between the offset and
return.  The chimney components that best fit your
application are two [2] SL312’s.
