14 1- Start by positioning your stove where you would lik e it to go, taking into account the minim um clearances to combustible material. You will then be able to determin e where the chim ney will pass through the wall. You will probably have to adjust the stove position slightly to ensure that your chimney will run between the studs.
15 4- Then, from outside the building, slide a short chim ney length (attached to the tee) through the wall thimble. The chimney m ust extend at least 3 inches into the living space where it attaches to the stove pipe. 5- You can now install the wall support.
16 6- You can start to add chimney sections. We recom mend that you also use locking bands to secure all connections. You w ill need to secure the chimney to the house using wall bands.
