I'm looking at installing a chimney on a ZC wood fireplace. Does anyone have a brand preference. $ and safety are issues.
 
I found best price was Selkirk Supervent at Lowes (or other big boxes). Just look for Class A or UL 103-HT rating.
 
Being an engineer and a compulsive researcher. I chose to go with the ICC Excel .... http://www.icc-rsf.com/en/iccrsf/icc-rsf-home but your mileage may vary. In my opinion they have the best materials, manufacturing process, attention to detail, performance, and best selection or parts/pieces/accessories. It is slightly more expensive. My second choice would would have been Simpson DuraVent http://www.duravent.com/ .
