1- Start by positioning your stove where you would like it to go, taking into account the minimum
clearances to combustible material. You will then be able to determine where the chimney will pass
through the wall. You will probably have to adjust the stove position slightly to ensure that your
chimney will run between the studs. You can use a stud finder to locate the studs. Use a spoke saw
or jig saw to cut a hole, remembering that you need to maintain a clearance of 2 inches between the
chimney and any combustible materials. For concrete walls, cut a hole slightly larger than the outer
diameter of the chimney.
2- Once the opening completed, you need to frame in the area to allow for the installation of a wall
thimble. A wall thimble is not required for installations through concrete walls.
3- You must first secure the wall thimble into the exterior wall surface. Then, do the same inside and
fasten the trim plate.
4- Then, from outside the building, slide a short chimney length (attached to the tee) through the wall
thimble. The chimney must extend at least 3 inches into the living space where it attaches to the
stove pipe.
