Typical installation through the ceiling
FIGURE 2.2.1 (B) Typical Installation Through the Ceiling
1- Place your stove where you would like it located and use a plumb line to mark the ceiling
directly above your stove flue. You will probably have to adjust this position slightly to ensure
that your chimney will run between the joists. You can use a stud finder to locate the joists. You
also need to take into account the minimum clearances to combustible materials. After you
have determined where the chimney will go through the ceiling, use a spoke saw or power jig
saw to cut a hole, remembering that you need a minimum 2-inch clearance between the
chimney and any combustible materials. Depending on whether you have a one or two story
structure, you will need to cut a matching hole through the floor of the attic or second floor
living space.
