A.  When  the  chimney  passes  through  a ceiling to 
an  upper  floor,  ensure  the  chimney  pipe  manufac-
turers  recommended  clearances  to  combustibles  is 
maintained  with  framing  where  it  passes

 

through 

the ceiling.  

B.  Complete  chimney  installation  as  shown  in 
Figure  26.    As  the  chimney  extends  through  the 
attic to the roof, attach securing straps to rafters and 
joists as required to provide stability.  

C.  As  the  chimney  rises  through  the  ceiling,  per-
haps a second floor, and through the attic and roof, 
16 inches or 30 degrees is the maximum offset al-
lowed, and only one offset is permitted. 

D.  If  chimney  exit  opening  does  not  already  exist, 
locate the point where the chimney will exit the roof 
by  plumbing  down  to  the  center  of  the  chimney.  
Drive a nail into the roof to mark the center. 

E.  Measure  to  all  sides  of  the  nail  and  mark  the 
required  opening,  and  then  cut  a  hole  in  the  roof.  
Remember  that  the  hole  is  measured  on  the  hori-
zontal,  and  then  projected  to  the  roof.    The  hole 
may  then  be  larger,  depending  on  the  pitch  of  the 
roof.  See Figure 23. 

 

F.  Frame  the  opening,  ensuring  that  the  recom-
mended minimum clearance to combustibles by the 
chimney pipe manufacturer exists between the roof 
and  the  chimney,  ensuring  that  distance  is  main-
tained all the way around. 

WARNING:  DO NOT PACK REQUIRED AIR 

SPACES WITH INSULATION 
OR OTHER MATERIALS.  

G.  Continue  to  add  pipe  sections,  extending  the 
chimney through the roof. 

H.  A  wood  chase  may  be  constructed  around  the 
exposed  chimney  for  aesthetic  effect.    Ensure  the 
minimum recommended clearances to combustibles 
specified  by  the  metal  chimney  pipe  manufacturer 
are maintained inside the chase. 

I.  Install  roof  flashing  appropriate  to  the  roof 
pitch,  and  any  other  pipe  accessories,  per  the  pipe 
manufacturer’s instructions. 

J.  Install the appropriate chimney cap for the pipe 
being used. 

4.3 Height of Chimney – Metal or Masonry 

Figure 27 illustrates the proper height of the chimney 
top.  Correct height depends on the chimney’s loca-
tion  on  the  roof  and  distance  from  the  peak  of  the 
roof.    Surrounding  trees,  other  buildings  and  hills 
may also be a consideration.
