Insulated Pipe

Model SSII Type HT and Model SSII pipe with six diameter sizes is produced in standard 18" and 36" lengths.  Shorter insulated pipe sections (3", 6" and 9" net lengths) are available for use as insulated tee snout extensions or where small lengths are needed.  The various lengths can be intermixed to attain virtually any height.  The installed length per section of 18" pipe is 16-3/4".  The installed length of 36" pipe is 35-5/16".

Insulated Tee

The insulated chimney tee may be used to start chimneys indoors or outdoors using a wall support assembly or a masonry pier.  A length of insulated chimney pipe is attached to the Tee snout, using a Locking Band, to pass safely through combustible walls.  An insulated Tee Cap is included which can be removed from bottom opening for inspection and cleanout.  Maximum height of chimney which can be supported by an Insulated Tee is 50 feet.

Wall Support Kit

The Type HT Wall Support Kit has been tested for use fully enclosed and has been designed in 6, 7 and 8 inch sizes to carry up to 50 feet of height.  The capacity of the larger sizes 10, 12 and 14 inches is 40 feet of chimney.  The Wall Support is intended for use with the Insulated Tee as an interior or exterior support where the chimney has a lateral connection.  It is also useful where the pipe connection passes through a combustible interior or exterior wall.  Braces may only be fastened to the wall below the plate for chimneys which penetrate through the wall.

15°/30° Insulated Elbows

15 degree Insulated Elbows can be used for fixed offsets of 15 degree slope or in pairs for offsets adjustable from zero degrees to 30 degrees slope.  The 30º Insulated Elbow in 6", 7" and 8" sizes can be used for fixed offsets of 30 degrees slope.  Greater angles are prohibited by UL Standard 103 and by the terms of the product listing.

Locking Bands (one package with each elbow) allow 360 degree rotation and lock the components together in place at the exact offset required.  Insulated Elbows can be used at the same two-inch air space clearance as chimney sections.

Ceiling Supports

The Finish Ceiling Support (FSP) in 6", 7" and 8" sizes, is finished in matte black and is available with either a round or square trim plate.

The Ceiling Support (CSP) in sizes 10", 12" and 14", is un-painted and comes with a square trim plate only.

With proper framing, all ceiling supports assure at least 2" minimum clearance to combustibles at the support level and can carry up to 50 feet of vertical chimney height.

Roof Support

An ideal support assembly for freestanding fireplaces and open cathedral ceiling installations.  Fits all roof pitches and requires only simple framing.  Mounts easily on to top of roof through opening that allows 2-inch clearance.  Maximum length of chimney which can be suspended below is 20 feet.  Maximum total length is 30 feet.

The Roof Support Package (RSP) contains one 18" length of pipe, roof brackets and necessary hardware.

The roof brackets and hardware may be purchased without the pipe section by ordering a Roof Support Kit (RSK).  The brackets may be assembled to any standard pipe length at any desired height.

Locking bands must be used at each pipe joint when installing either the RSP or RSK.

Interior Resupport

Interior resupport assembly allows for two different methods of chimney resupport.  The first method is used when an immediate section of chimney above the upper offset passes through a joist area.  With the appropriate Fire Stop/Wall Spacer (WS) in place, clamp the support band around chimney and attach with six sheet metal screws.  The second means of support is used primarily when the immediate sections of the upper offset do not pass through a joist area and resupport is necessary.  The Support Band is clamped around the chimney immediately below a Locking Band.  In both methods, the straps are nailed to suitable framing at two inch clearance.  The 18 foot limit of supportable chimney length applies.

Attic Insulation Shield

Used wherever a Ceiling Support, Finish Support, or Fire Stop is installed below an open attic.  The Insulation Shield is required to guard against the hazard of blown-in or blanket insulation filling any framed opening or contacting the chimney and possible storage of combustibles against the chimney.  Adaptable design usable for new and retrofit installations.  Half cylinder passes easily through ceiling openings between 16" O.C. joists.  Part can be removed without cutting if attic is converted to habitable space and chimney is fully enclosed.  Readily trimmed for reduced height installation close to eaves.

Support Box

The Support Box is intended for use when installing a model SSII chimney in an A-Frame, in a mobile home, or in a ceiling under a narrow section of roof.  It provides a finished installation at a ceiling level and will support up to 20' of 6", 7" or 8" diameter chimney.  The part also can be used to provide shielding from insulation when installed in unoccupied attic space.  The Support Box assembly is compromised of a black box designed for installation inside 16" O.C. joists, a cylindrical shield, support bucket, ceiling trim, and four screws.

Roof Brace Kit

 

A roof brace Kit can be used whenever there is a need to stabilize the chimney above the roof level.  The purpose of the bracing is to hold the chimney against wind load; and to prevent damage from static and sliding snow.  Up to 4' above the roof requires no bracing.  From 5' to 10' above the roof one T-RBK should be use, at a midpoint on the chimney.  Over 10' use on RBK 4' from the roof and one RBK every 5' thereafter.  Adjusts from 4' to 6'.

Flashings

Flashings are used to seal the opening where the chimney penetrates the roof and to divert rain and snow down from the roof and away from the chimney system.  A series if adjustable flashings are available depending on your roof pitch.  A flat and low pitch flashing is used to seal flat and low pitch roof (up to 2/12 pitch) openings.

To determine your roof pitch, measure the number of inches from the end of a level ruler down to the roof.  This is the rise for 12" of run.  A rise of 5" is a 5/12 pitch...4" a 4/12 pitch, etc.
