Can someone please help me, I'm adding a second floor to a cape cod and have to extend the chimney, here's what i have.
20 foot masonary chimney. I have 11 foot of wood chase (that needs to be filled). I wish to add a wood burning stove with a 6 inch pipe. ( i haven't picked the stove yet)
I have heard everyting from....the top of the mas. fireplace, add an anchor plate with 8" class "a" SS pipe and drop a liner all teh way down to the insert.
FROM.........20 foot of chimney liner from inset to top of masary a 6" coupling male to male then a 6" class A to the top.
From ........a 30 foot liner..from insert to top of new chiney...the last 10 feet you can wrap and insulate.
from a 3ft. flex to a ridge vent up 20 feet to a class "a" another 11 ft. that is $$$
I want this to be safe I'm just not sure who is correct.
PLEASE HELP
Thanks,
Chip
