If such a case arises, contact your local Building Code Official regarding

localregulationsandproperinstallationmethods.

Model UT chimney requires 2” (50mm) clearance to

combustible material or as established by support

assembly.

Attachflue pipepartssecurely toeachother, andto theapplianceusing

three sheet metal screws per joint.

• Be sure that ladders are in good condition and always rest on a level

firm surface.

• Be very careful around electrical wiring and be sure it is secured at

least 2 inches away from any part of the chimney. If wiring must be

relocated,hirea professional electrician.

Do not place any type of insulating materials or run any

electrical wiring within the required clearance air space

surrounding the chimney.

FUELS& APPLIANCES:

Model UT chimney has been designed as gravity venting only if the

appliance operates with neutral or negative draft at its outlet. Any

positive pressure in the chimney should use a Selkirk Model PS or

IPS system. Model UT has been designed for connection to liquid or

gas fired residential type appliances and building heating appliances,

in which normally producing flue gas temperatures of 540° C (1000° F)

or less.

All diameters (5”, 6”, 7”, 8”, 10”, 12” and 14”) comply fully with the

requirement of CAN/ULC-S604. Model UT 10” through 14” comply

also to the requirements of ULC/ORD-C959 the 540° and 760° In-

dustrial Chimney Standard.

May also be used with specific factory-built fireplaces listed to UL 127

and CAN/ULC-S610 when specified in the fireplace manufacturer’s

installation instructions.

Before commencing the installation ensure that you obtain any nec-

essary building permits, and that your installation will conform with all

federal and municipal building codes requirements affecting the fuel-

burning appliance and its chimney. This chimney is intended for use

in accordance with:

-National andProvincial Building Code ofCanada,

-CAN/CSAB-149.1-00InstallationCode for Gas Equipment,

-CAN/CSAB-139.00InstallationCode for Oil Burning Equipment;

-Applianceandventingmanufacturers’sInstallationInstructions.

Sectionsof the UTchimney whichpassthrough accessible areas ofthe

building such as closets, storage areas, occupied spaces or anyplace

wherethesurfaceofthechimneycouldbecontactedbypersons or com-

bustible materials must be enclosed in a chase to avoid personal

contact and damage to the chimney.

The chase may be fabricated using standard building materials. Dry-

wall mounted on 2” x 4” studs is typically used in this situation. Except

for installation in single and two family dwellings, factory-built chim-

neys shall be enclosed with approved walls having a fire resistance

rating equal or greater than that of the floor, wall or roof assemblies

through which they pass. and must have a fire resistance rating equal

to or greater than the floors or ceilings through which they pass. The

minimum airspace clearance between the outer wall of the chimney

and the enclosure shall be at least 2 inches.

•Besure that electricallypoweredtools are properlygrounded.

If you are knowledgeable in carpentry and mechanically inclined, you

can take on the task of installing your new venting system. It is impor-

tant that all pertaining installation instructions and local codes are

followed carefully. If you have any doubt concerning your ability or

knowledge of the appliance being connected to your chimney sys-

tem, arrange for a professional installation. Certified technicians

having installed systems many times before and have the knowledge

and experience to perform your installation in a professional and

timely manner.

SHEETMETALPARTSWITH SHARPEDGES

The chimney pipe and fittings must be assembled with locking bands

or stainless sheet metal screws, maximum length of 1/2” (12.70mm)

on all interior joints. Locking bands must be used on all exterior

joints.

RULESFOR SAFETYDURINGINSTALLATION: The ideal location for your chimney is within the building envelope.

In cold climates, the use of external chimneys may result in opera-

tional problems such as poor draft, excessive condensation of com-

bustion products and rapid accumulation of creosote. Under these

circumstances, the installation of the chimney within the building is

strongly recommended.

If the chimney must be installed on an exterior wall it is recommended

thatthe chimney beenclosedbelow the roofline to protect thechimney

fromcoldoutdoortemperatures,thismayhelpreducecondensation, creo-

sote formation and enhance draft. Provide an access door by the Tee

Cap for chimney inspection and cleaning. The exterior enclosure

may be insulated, maintaining the required 2” (50mm) air space clear-

ance to any part of the chimney. Consult local building codes for cold

climate applications.

GENERALINSTALLATION RULES:

Support all offsets with an offset support and adequate strapping.

The minimum clearance to Model UT meansAIR SPACE ONLY. The 2

inch (50mm) clearance to pipe, and the spaces around supports must

not be filled with any type of insulation.

An Attic Insulation Shield must be installed where the chimney passes

into an attic space. It is designed to keep insulation materials or

debris from coming into contact with the chimney. It must accomodate

the amount of insulation as required by the National Building Code.

Where height restrictions will not permit the use of the Attic Insulation

Shield, it is permissible to construct an enclosure with a 2” air space

clearance to the outer pipe all the way to the underside of the roof

deck. In this application you would install a Firestop Joist Shield on

the ceiling side.

At the level where the chimney penetrates the air/vapour barrier, spe-

cial attention is required. Seal the vapour barrier to the Firstop Spacer

or Ceiling Support assembly or Wall Thimble using an appropriate

caulking compound as per the requirement of local authorities.

Do not mix and match with other manufacturer’s products. Use only

UT listed components.

CHIMNEYSIZING:

In order to achieve safe, optimum performance of the appliance, ser-

vice life of the chimney, the chimney should be sized correctly for the

connected appliance. In general, the chimney flue should be the

same size as the appliance flue outlet. Installations should be done

in accordance with the applicable installation codes (eg. CSA-B149

for natural gas and propane appliances, and CSA-B139 for fuel oil

appliances)and appliance manufacturer instructions. Plan the in-

stallation of your appliance and chimney in such a way that both

Authority require that the chimney extend not less than 3ft (900 mm )

abovethehighestpointwhereitpassesthrough the roof of a building and

not less than 2ft (600 mm)higherthananyportionof a building within 10ft

(3m) horizontally. SeeFigure1andChart2 in the back ofthese instruc-

tions.

FRAMINGDETAILS:

Plan your installation carefully. If possible, position the appliance so

that the flue outlet is centered between joists, rafters or studs. Drop a

plumb line to the center of the flue outlet and mark this center point on

the ceiling. Lay out and frame all openings ensuring the specified 2”

clearance to combustibles is maintained. All openings should be

square, plumb and in perfect alignment with each other (see Figure

2). For angled roofs, ensure that the framing dimensions are mea-

sured on the horizontal plane (see Figure 3).

ADJUSTABLELENGTH(AL)

An Adjustable Length (AL) is installed between other components to

establish an exact finished length, where a standard length can not

be utilized. The AL has an over all length of 12” and has an installed

length that adjusts from 2” to 9-1/2”.

The Adjustable Length is available only in diameters of 5” to 8”.

The Adjustable Length must be installed above a fixed length - they

cannot be installed immediately above a support, tee or elbow.

The Adjustable Length slides over the male end of an adjoining

straight length. However, to allow engagement it is necessary to

remove some of the insulation from the inlet end of the Adjustable

Length.

To install:

1. Determine (measure) the finished (installed) length of chimney

needed (DIM “A”) and add 2.25” to the measurement (See Fig. 6).

Note: To facilitate installation, it is recommended that theAdjustable

Length be attached and secured to the lower adjoining segment

before it is installed in the system.

8. Seal the overlap seam and screws with silicone sealant (See Fig. 8b).

7. Re-orient the assembly to the upright position (Male Coupler Up)

and apply pressure to compress the adjoining segments together

until the overlapped edge of the Adjustable Length extends down to

the reference line marked on the standard length. Secure by installing

3 #8 x 1/2” stainless steel sheet metal screws through the pilot

holes in theAdjustable Length and into the outer wall of the adjoining

segment (See Fig. 8b).

6. While still positioned with the coupler end down, insert the standard

straight length into the Adjustable Length (See Fig. 8a).

5. Remove insulation from the inlet (female) end of the Adjustable

Length until the insulation is level with the line marked on the outside

of the pipe (See Fig. 7).

4. Measure the distance (Dim “B”) from that line to the edge of the

Adjustable Length and add 1”. This is the “overlap” distance. On the

adjoining standard length, measure up from the male coupler, the

“overlap” distance and mark a reference line. Make sure the location

of the reference line is measured from the standard length’s male

(coupler) end (See Fig 7).

3. From the male end, measure up the distance Dim “A” + 2.25” and

mark a line on the Adjustable Length (See Fig. 7).

2. Remove the Adjustable Length from the packaging carton and set

it with the male end (coupler end) of the Adjustable Length down to

prevent insulation from spilling out (See Fig. 7).

10. Refer to main installation instructions to continue installing the

remaining system parts.

9. Once the female end of the Adjustable Length is secured to the

adjoining segment, the assembly may be installed in the system.

NOTE: If the Adjustable Length (AL) is installed in a system where it

will be subjected to the weight of more than 4’ of chimney (either

above or below), supplementary support such as an Interior

Resupport (IR) is required.

- It stabilizes the chimney in the framed opening and defines and

maintains the required AIR SPACE clearance to combustibles.

- It prevents heat losses from the dwelling by blocking vertical air

circulation in the space around the chimney.

- It helps provide stability for chimney extending above the roof.

FIRESTOPPING:

Firestopping is required at every joist level. Wherever a chimney

passes through a ceiling or floor, through a wall, or into an enclosure,

it must be firestopped. No firestopping is required in conjunction

with a Ceiling Support installed as shown in Figure 5, the Ceiling

Support provides the firestopping. Firestopping performs the follow-

ing essential functions for both the dwelling and the chimney.

- Together with a fully framed opening (all four sides), controls vertical

and horizontal spread of any fire external to the chimney.

ATTICINSULATIONSHIELD

The function of the Attic Insulation Shield (or a complete enclosure) is

to keep insulation from coming into contact with the chimney. The

height of the Attic Insulation Shield is to meet the insulation level

requirement of the National Building Code. Where height restrictions

will not permit the use of the Attic Insulation Shield, it is permissible to

construct an enclosure with the required air space clearance to the

outer pipe all the way to the underside of the roof deck. In this appli-

cation you would install a Firestop/Joist Shield on the ceiling side.

OPENING

Table 2

For proper installation, the attic opening should be fully framed at 2

inches clearance to the chimney pipe with framing material of the same

dimension as the ceiling joists as per Table 2 and Figure 10. The tabs

on the base plate of the AIS are inserted in the framed opening around

the chimney.

TheAttic Insulation Shield allows for a depth of insulation of 10 inches

plus the depth of the ceiling joists. If insulation is blown in and ad-

heres to the chimney pipe, it should be brushed off to eliminate any

possible contact of this material with the chimney surface.

Nail the AIS base to the framing dimensions with at least 2 nails per

side using 2d (1”) spiral nails or 1” x #8 wood screws. Extend the

telescoping shield down through the framing. See Figures 9 and 10.

One pair only of (two) 15 or 30 or 45 degree elbows may be used to

provide an offset in order to avoid cutting of joists and to clear other

obstructions (see Table 3). The vertical run of chimney above an

offset must be supported with an elbow support. Each elbow support

will support 10m (30’) of chimney. If the offset length is more than

1.2m (4’), an intermediate support (plumbing straps not supplied)

must be installed at 1.2m (4’) intervals in conjunction with an offset

support. Maximum offset length is 4.8m (16’). See the Offset Chart for

assistance in selecting your offset. NOTE: Large diameters (10” to

If supported along an interior wall in a non-attic area the chimney

must be fully enclosed with a minimum of 2” air space clearance. In

the attic area the chimney an Attic Insulation Shield is to be installed.

Theheight of theAttic InsulationShieldmust accommodate the amount

of insulation height as required by the National Building Code. If it is

not practical to use theAttic Insulation Shield (due to height restrction),

it is permissible to construct an enclosure with a 2” air space clear-

ance to the outer pipe all the way to the underside of the roof deck.

Install a Firestop Spacer on the ceiling side.

If supported along an exterior or interior wall, Wall Bands must be

installed every 8’ to insure chimney stability and maintenance of 2” air

space clearance. In any chimney installation, two points of stabiliza-

tion are necessary hence at least one Wall Band must be installed. It

is desirable to fully enclose an exterior chimney with minimum of 2”

air space clearance to reduce creosote buildup and to promote draft.

The framing dimensions for the Wall Support are ilustrated in Fig. 15

and Table 4.

The following steps will assist you in the installation of the Adjustable

Wall Support. Figure 16 shows a typical Wall Support installation

through a combustible wall.

-Through-The-Wall Length: Attaches to tee branch.

-InsulatedTee w/Plug

-InsulatedWallThimble:Required to passthrough acombustiblewall.

-Wall Band: Requiredtoprovidelateral support tothe chimney.

-RoundTop:To prevent rainand/ordebris from entering inthechimney.

-Stove Pipe Adapter: To connect from the chimney to appliance’s flue

pipe.

-Roof Flashing: Required when the chimney penetrates a roof or a roof

overhang.

The maximum chimney height above an Adjustable Wall Support is

indicated in Table 5 and illustrated in Figure 16, all of which must be

above the support.

SIZE TABLE4

To complete a proper Wall Support installation, the following parts

may be required:

-Adjustable Wall Support: Intended for a through-the-wall installation

where the chimney has a horizontal connection.

-Suitable Lengths of chimney: Installed above the support.

2. For a non-combustible wall (concrete block or poured foundation),

cut a hole 5mm (3/16”) greater in diameter than the outside diameter

of the chimney.

1. Determine the centre line of the horizontal connection (Chimney

Length through the wall) and frame an opening to the dimensions

specified for the Wall Thimble in a combustible wall (see Table 4

Section Aand Figure 15).

3. After framing in your opening to the dimensions specified in the

Framing Dimensions in Table 1, install the outer half (with the unfin-

ished square plate) of the Insulated Wall Thimble in the outside wall

opening. Secure in place using appropriate fasteners through the

pre-punched holes.

4. Installthe inner half(with blackplate)of the Insulated wallThimblein

the inside wall opening, ensuring that the shield slides into the shield of

the outer half. Once in place and flush against the wall, fasten with ap-

propriatefastenersthrough the pre-punched holes.

5. Assemble the side Brackets (point of triangle facing down) to the

SupportPlate(flange up) by insertingthe threaded studsinto theoblong

slots. Install the supplied nuts on the threaded studs. (see Figures

17 & 18).

9. Place the insulated Tee on the support plate ensuring that the

male coupler of the Tee is facing up and the flange on the top of the

plate slides into the female coupler. Insert and secure the Tee Cap

with the attached retainer clips (see Figure 20). In earthquake zones,

secure the Tee to the flange on the support plate by installing 2 stain-

less steel sheet metal screws as per figure 20.

10. For extension of the Tee, slide an appropriate insulated Chimney

Lengththroughthe WallThimble and attachit to the horizontalbranch of

theInsulatedTee with thesupplied lockingband. Make sure thenut and

bolt are facing down to prevent any water from collecting in the locking

band. The insulated length must protrude at least 76mm (3”) through

the wall into the room as per Figure 14a.

7. Once in its final position and all clearances have been met, tighten

each of the nuts on the threaded studs.

8. Attach the two (2) retainer clips to the bottom of the support plate

and fasten with the supplied nuts and bolts using the two (2) holes on

top of the support plate (see Figure 20).

11. Use a non-hardening high-temperature sealant (500oF) to seal

around the horizontal length where it enters the wall thimble or the

concrete wall.

12. Chimney lengths above the Insulated Tee are simply stacked on

and locked with a 1/8 clockwise turn. Locking bands must be used

on all joints.

13. For lateral stability of the chimney above the support, a Wall Band

mustbeused every 8feet, andat leastone Wall Bandmust beinstalled.
