CLEARANCE

Allow at least a 2-inch clearance between  

DuraPlus Pipe and any combustible materials.  

Where the chimney passes through floors, 

joists, or ceilings, Firestop Radiation Shields,  

Support Boxes, and Close Clearance Shields 

may permit reduced clearances as established 

by these parts, or spacers built on to these 

parts.  The clearance (air space) between 

the outer chimney wall, and the inside of the 

Support Box,  Firestop Radiation Shields,  

and Close Clearance Shields, in the cases 

of 7 and 8-inch diameter chimney will be less 

than 2 inches.  Both of these systems have 

been extensively tested and evaluated at 

these clearances.  This reduced clearance is 

permissible at these internal locations only.  

All other areas require a 2-inch minimum 

clearance.  Never fill any required clearance 

space with insulation or any other materials.  

Combustible materials include lumber plywood, 

sheetrock, plaster and lath, furniture, curtains, 

electrical wiring and building insulation.  Keep 

single wall stovepipe at least 18 inches 

away from combustible materials, unless a 

clearance reduction system that is acceptable 

to the authority having jurisdiction is used, or 

the appliance to be installed is listed and the 

instructions specify a different clearance.

PERMITS 

Contact your local Building Official or Fire 

Official regarding permits, restrictions, and 

installation inspections in your area.
