1.  From the appliance manufacturer’s instructions, determine

 

 

the correct flue diameter for the chimney and proper location

 

 

of the chimney.

2.  Using  framing  lumber  equal  to  ceiling  joist  size,  frame

 

 

opening as shown in 

FIG. 9

. Framing that is perpendicular 

 

to  the  roof  joists  must  also  be  vertically  mounted  so  that

 

 

support can be installed vertically.

 

Opening dimensions will vary based on roof pitch (slope).  

 

Framed openings should be approximately ¼” larger than  

 

support. The TGRS dimensions are:
