8.2.1 Factory-built Metal Chimneys

These are sometimes referred to as 'high
temp' chimneys because they have the
special characteristics to withstand the
temperatures that can be created by
wood burning stoves. Factory-built
chimneys are tested as a system with all
the necessary components for
installation. The instructions provided
with the chimney by its manufacturer are
the only reliable source of installation
guidelines. To be safe and effective, the
chimney must be installed exactly in
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions. Use only components
intended for the brand and model of
chimney you are using. Never
substitute parts from other chimney
brands or fabricate your own
components. The chimney must be a
type suitable for solid fuel.
