Question:

I have a client that wished to have a three opening fire place (total opening - 31 square feet - 2 openings @ 30"x36" and 1 @ 48"x48"). I do not have the design criteria to determine the flue size and height. Can you point me to a source of such information. Since it is possible the opening sizes might change, I would need to have the design criteria available.

Try the article on chimney sizing at: https://www.hearth.com/what/chimneysize.html
