B. THROUGH-THE-WALL INSTALLATION
NOTES: Chimney height should not exceed 30 feet for
through-the-wall installations (see Figure 26).
We recommend enclosure of exterior-
mounted chimneys below the roofline in
geographical areas experiencing sustained
low-ambient temperature to help reduce or
limit condensation, creosote build-up and
poor draft. Also install an access door into
the enclosure for cleaning and maintenance.
