clearance.

INSTALLATION NOTES

Proper planning for your DuraTech Chimney

installation will result in greater safety,

efficiency, and convenience, as well as

saving time and money. You must use

only authorized DuraTech Chimney parts

to maintain a listed Chimney system (not

including the connector pipe). Do not mix parts

or try to match with other products, or use

improvised solutions. Do not install damaged

or modified parts. Each solid-fuel appliance

must be vented with its own chimney. Table

1 lists the authorized DuraTech Chimney

components. Practice good workmanship.

Sloppy work could jeopardize your chimney’s

safety. Keep electrical wiring and insulation

away from all chimneys and stovepipes. If you

have any questions, be sure to contact either

your dealer or DuraVent directly.
