Class A chimney

niawatch · By: **niawatch** On: Sat Dec 12, 2009 1:28 pm

I am thinking of abandoning my powerventer and am considering putting up a SS class A chimney. I can't do a massonary chimney--
Questions for anyone--has anyone in the nj hunterdon county area done this before? Would like some suggestions,,for example what brand/type of chimney..--also, if you know anyone who installs these?
It would appear a very simple install.. out my block wall foundation then straight up the side of the house...nothing fancy thats it.
Thanks

Mike,
Post some pics of where you want the chimney to go. The inside wall, and the outside wall.
Thanx

Thanks, here are some pics. Just for some perspective, the picture of the basement wall,,the pipe going out on the left hand side is the same pipe exiting in the outside pics..Straight thru hole. On the outside pictures to the left of the window it is 1 foot to the ground.. To the right it is 2+,,

zeeklu,,thanks, do you remember what they charged? roughly--

It was Excel pipe. It has a lifetime warranty.I wish I could find the reciept because my setup is almost identical to yours.The height is close also. I found the stove reciept but not the pipe. Chris

Did you want a chase and the liner to go out the chase top ? Doesn't a class A also require insulation and the at least 6 feet of fire rated drywall ?

I had a stright ~12' run of Class A installed by SOS too. It's Supervent and is technically interior, it starts inside my attic at the sheetrock/joists above the stove room.

From the research I have done here and elsewhere the UL rating should be UL-103 HT.
Simpson uses a 430 SS inner and outer in their products. UL_ 103
Selkirk/Metalbest uses 304 inner and 430 outer in their products. About 42.00/ft plus your Tee etc. http://www.selkirkcorp.com/WorkArea/sho ... px?id=7468
They also have 316 SS but Europe sales only due their codes. I asked why not here, they replied Canadians and Americans would not pay the price.
That would be the way to go.
Stainless outer only with the coal.

I would recomment 316 SS if your going with coal - more corrosive resistant then 304
