Hi there. I want to frame a new wood zc fireplace inside my garage with the chimney running through the roof. The reason im putting it in the garage is so the face of the fireplace sits flush on the wall inside the house so it dose not take up alot of space in the living room. Can anyone see any problems with me doing this? TIA
Zero clearance fireplace

Meant to say insulate it if the garage isn’t a conditioned space. If it’s heated and cooled then you wouldn’t necessarily need to insulate as long as it was dry walled.
You don’t have to frame a chase if you don’t want to. Once the pipe is in the attic it can be treated as any woodstove chimney.
