the chimney. The flexible radiation shield tube is long enough to fit a 9' ceiling.
For a higher ceiling, you can use more than one flexible radiation shield tube
attached together.
Install lengths of chimney until it extends beyond the radiation shield then
insert the coupling of the flexible radiation shield tube all the way to its bead
into the circular shield of the radiation shield. Use four of the self-tapping
screws provided and attached them together. Extend the flexible radiation
shield tube so that the coupling goes into the radiation shield of the floor
above. It should rest against its bead. Again use four of the self-tapping
screws provided and attached them together. Repeat for every floor up to the
roof.
If the chimney is enclosed in the attic, the flexible radiation shield tube must
be installed.
If the chimney is not enclosed in the attic, the flexible radiation shield tube is
not required in the attic.
If the chimney passes through a wall, a flexible radiation shield tube (RM-
12RRSF) must be installed in the exterior chase. To do so, a support (offset,
roof or wall support) is required within the first 12" above the second elbow
(the elbow on the outside of the wall). Insert a flexible radiation shield tube
over the chimney and let it rest against the support. Assemble the chimney
until it reaches the next ceiling structure or roof structure. Install a radiation
shield (RM-12RRS2) without the ring installed (if the chimney is going through
a ceiling) or a roof top shield (RM-12RTS, if it has reached the roof structure).
Attach the flexible radiation shield tube to the radiation shield or roof top
shield and extend it downwards all the way to the wall support just above the
elbow. Make sure that the flexible radiation shield tube stays extended
downwards and rests as against the support. Continue the chimney installation
up to the roof along with the required shields.
The chimney must extend at least 3' above its point of contact with the roof and at
least 2' higher than any wall, roof, or building within 10' of it. If the chimney is
higher than 5' above the roof, it must be secured using a roof brace.
At the roof, install a roof top shield (RM-12RTS). The two support brackets are 4.
adjustable depending on the flashing used and the roof pitch. To determine the
position of the two support brackets, find the roof pitch in Table 5. Then identify the
flashing that will be used to be able to find the associated installation number. Both
support brackets need to be installed in the holes of the roof top radiation shield
corresponding to the installation number.
Put the roof flashing into place. Seal the joint between the roof and the flashing with 5.
roofing tar. For sloping roofs, place the flashing under the upper shingles and on top
of the lower shingles. Secure the flashing to the roof with roofing nails or screws.
If the chimney is enclosed to the roof: use a vented flashing.
If the chimney is not enclosed in the attic: use a regular flashing.
Place the storm collar over the chimney and flashing. Seal it around the chimney 6.
with silicone sealer (DO NOT use roofing tar).
Fit the rain cap on the chimney. Secure it tightly in place with the screws provided. 7.
