hey guys,

I've had this topic on here before and came to the conclusion with everyone that it is ok and safe to have the class a chimney in a window well due to having to come out below ground. Wondering if anyone has done this on here and may have pictures. I got robbed from a contractor, long story short, and was forced to install chimney sooner rather than later due to the hole in my home. I got the thimble in and sealed it up real nice and have a window well dug and placed in so that the well comes a decent bit above ground. I would imagine that everything I'm doing is up to code and it will be done properly and I'm not going cheap or cutting corners! I am concerned about the clean out being a real pain and may not have enough room underneath the T to put the support on. I got the duravent through the wall kit and saw a diagram from begreen, I believe, of the support bracket being mounted actually above the T. Sorry for the long post but if anyone has any suggestions, feedback, pictures or any ideas at all I appreciate it big time! AS I said the contractor I hired actually stole my 455 rancher, and I was forced to not have him come back due to the theft. So I will finish myself like I should have done from the start like you guys said! thanks guys!!!
