This product was designed for and tested on a 6 inch
(152mm) chimney, 14 to 16 feet (420-480cm) high,

appliance. The further your stack height or diameter varies
from this configuration, the greater the likelihood it may
affect performance.
Chimney height may need to be increased by 2 - 3% per
each 1000 feet above sea level. It is not recommended
to use offsets or elbows at altitudes above 4000 feet
above sea level or when there are other factors that affect
flue draft.
