Above a Fireplace
In this type of installation, the chimney connector rises
from the stove, turns 90°, and then goes into the fireplace
chimney (Fig. B) The liner of the fireplace chimney should
extend at least to the point at which the chimney connector
enters the chimney. Follow all the guidelines for installing
a chimney connector into a freestanding masonry chimney,
and pay special attention to these additional points:
• Double check the connector clearance from the
ceiling: 18” minimum.
• The fireplace damper must be closed and sealed
to prevent room air from being drawn up the flue,
thereby reducing the draft. However, it must
be possible to re-open the damper in order to
inspect the chimney.

Wall Pass-Through
Whenever possible, design your installation so that the wall connector does not pass through a combustible wall. If
you are considering a wall pass-through in your installation, check with your building inspector before you begin. Also
check with the chimney connector manufacturer for any specific requirements. Accessories are available for use as
wall pass-throughs. If using one of these, make sure it has been tested and listed for use as a wall pass-through.

Wall Stud
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has
established guidelines for passing chimney connectors
through combustible walls. Many building code
inspectors follow these guidelines when approving
installations.
The methods approved by the NFPA are:
Cutting away all combustible material in the
wall a sufficient distance from the single wall connector,
to provide the required 12” (300 mm) clearance for the
connector. Any material used to close the opening must
be non-combustible (as in Fig . C).
Using a section of double-wall chimney with a
9” (230 mm) clearance to combustibles.
Placing a chimney connector pipe inside
a ventilated thimble, which is then separated from
combustibles by 6” (150 mm) of fibreglass insulating
material.
• Placing a chimney connector pipe inside a section
of 9” (230 mm) diameter, solid-insulated factory built
chimney, with two inches of air space between the
chimney section and the combustibles.
