E. Chimney Requirements
When planning your fireplace location, the chimney construc-
tion and necessary clearances must be considered. The fire-
place system and chimney components have been tested to
provide flexibility in construction. The following figures are
the minimum distances from the base of the fireplace.
• Minimum overall straight height is 10 ft If the fireplace is
freestanding and a minimum of 10 ft from a combustible
structure. See Figure 3.2.
• Chimney must extend 2 ft (.6 m) above any portion of
the roof within 10 ft (3048 mm) of the chimney. Refer to
Figure 6.2.
