A. Chimney Requirements
Vertical distances are measured from the base of the fi re-
place as shown in Figure 5.2.
To determine the chimney components needed to complete
your particular installation, follow the steps below:
• Determine the total vertical height of the fireplace
installation. This dimension is measured from the base of
the fi replace assembly to the point where the smoke exits
the termination cap.
• Subtract the effective height of the fi replace assembly from
the overall height of the fi replace installation (measured
from the base of the fireplace to the bottom of the
termination cap).
• Refer to Table 5.1 to determine what components must
be selected to complete the fi replace installation.
• Determine the number of ceiling fi restops, stabilizers,
roof flashing, etc. required to complete the fireplace
installation.
