• Placing a chimney connector pipe inside a section
of 9" (229mm) diameter, solid-insulated, factory-built
chimney, with two inches of air space between the
chimney section and combustibles. (Fig. 10)
Canadian Requirements:In Canada, the Canadian
Standards Association has established specific
guidelines regarding wall pass-though design. Figure
11 shows one approved method in which all
combustible material in the wall is cut away to provide
the required 18" (457mm) clearance around the
connector. The resulting space must remain empty. A
flush-mounted sheet metal cover may be used
on one
side only. If covers must be used on both sides, each
cover must be mounted on noncombustible spacers at
least 1" (25mm) clear of the wall. Your local dealer or
your local building inspector can provide details of
other approved methods of passing a chimney
connector through a combustible wall.
In Canada, this type of installation must conform to
CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code for Solid Fuel
Burning Appliances and Equipment.
