B. Offsets/Returns

•  Use an offset/return to bypass overhead obstructions.

•  An offset and return can be used as a single entity or separated by chimney section(s).

 WARNING! 

Risk of Fire! DO NOT use offset/returns greater than 30°. Chimney draft will be restricted and could cause 

overheating and fire. Secure offsets with screws ( not to exceed 1/2” / 13 mm in length) Secure returns with strapping. 

Straight chimney sections may be secured with screws. Keep chimney sections from separating or twisting.

•  Measure the shift needed to avoid the overhead obstruction. Refer to dimension A in Figure 4.2.

•  Find the appropriate A dimension listed in Table 4.3. The B dimension coinciding with the A dimension measurement in 

Table 4.3 represents the required vertical clearance needed to complete the offset/return.

•  Read across the chart to find the number of chimney sections/model numbers needed between the offset and return.

Figure 4.2  Chimney Offset/Return

Table 4.3 Offset Dimensions

Example:

 

Your “A” dimension from Figure 4.2 is 14-1/2 in. (368 

mm). Using Table 4.3 the dimension closest to, but not 

less than 14-1/2 in. (368 mm) is 15 3/4 in. (400 mm) using 

a 30° offset/return. 
You determined from the table that you would need 36-

5/8 in. (930 mm) (Dimension “B”) between the offset and 

return. 
The chimney component that best fits your application is 

two SL1112s.

Proper assembly of air cooled chimney parts results in an overlap of chimney joints 

of 1-1/4 in. (32 mm). Effective length is built into this table.
