All chimney terminations must extend a mini-
mum of 3 feet above the highest point where it
passes through the roof and must be at least 2
feet above roof with a 10 foot horizontal span
(see Figure 20).
IMPORTANT: If an exposed portion of chim-
ney is greater than 4 feet above the roof line,
use support wires to keep chimney secure.
Support wires may be attached to outer pipe
of chimney with screws, if screws do not
penetrate inner ue pipe.
HEIGHT
The minimum height of the chimney (mea-
sured from the base of the replace to the ue
gas outlet-end of pipe) is 16 feet for a straight
is 6 feet of angled run. A maximum of two 6
feet angled run sections per chimney system

run, 16 feet minimum for a run with 1 elbow set
and 25 feet minimum for a run with 2 elbow
sets. (A set consists of one starter elbow and
one return elbow.)

boring hills, tall trees, or strong wind areas
can cause down drafts in chimney system.
In such cases, going beyond the minimum
recommended height would be preferable to
provide a better draw.
The replace height approved for any chimney
run with this replace system is 40 feet mea-
sured from bottom of rebox to ue outlet-end
of pipe (see Figure 21).
