SOLID PACK CHIMNEY WITH METAL SUPPORTS AS A THIMBLE (Cont'd)
First, make the frame for the thimble, ensuring it is
no smaller than 14" (368mm) square, to maintain a 2"
(51mm) air space around the chimney section.
Attach the wall spacer to the chimney side of the frame.
Then insert the frame into the opening, toe nailing it to
the wall studs. Install the wall band in the framing to
secure the chimney section in place.
Insert a single section of chimney connector into the
chimney through the wall band, being sure it does
not protrude into the chimney beyond the edge of the
chimney flue lining.
Apply high temperature furnace cement to the end of
the chimney section and install it over the connector,
through the wall spacer. Tighten the wall band to
hold the chimney section firmly in place and against
the chimney.
Install the trim collar on the outside of the opening.
Check to make sure there is a 1" (25mm) air space
between the connector and the chimney section.
During installation be certain that a 2" (51mm) air space
to the wood framing is maintained. Do not fill this space
with insulation. Insulation in this air space will cause a
heat buildup which may ignite the wood framing.
