CHIMNEY DIAMETER
Follow the appliance manufacturer’s
instructions to determine chimney diameter
and clearances between combustible materials
and your heating appliance. Never choose
a chimney with an inside diameter smaller
than your appliance’s outlet. To calculate the
chimney’s outside diameter, add 2 inches to
the inside diameter.
CHIMNEY HEIGHT
The National Fire Protection Association
Standard #211 states: “Chimneys shall extend
at least three feet above the highest point
where it passes through the roof of a building,
and at least two feet higher than any portion
of a building within ten feet.”
