Offset Chart
 
Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roofl ine 
due to its higher corrosion resistance. Continue 
to add pipe sections through the fl ashing until 
the height of the fl ue cap meets the minimum 
height requirements specifi ed in Diagram 5 or 
local codes.  Note that for steep roof pitches, 
the vertical height must be increased.  A poor 
draft, or down drafting can result from high 
wind conditions near big trees or adjoining 
roof lines, in these cases, increasing the fl ue 
height may solve the problem.
7)  Ensure fl ue is vertical and secure the base 
of the fl ashing to the roof with roofi ng rails, 
slide storm collar over the pipe section and 
seal with a mastic.
8)  Install the vertical termination cap by twist-
locking it.
Note:  Any closets or storage spaces, which 
the fl ue  passes  through  must  be 
enclosed.

Note:   Apply  sealant "Mill-Pac" to inner 
pipe and high temperature silicone 
sealant to outer pipe on every twist-
lock joint.
VERTICAL 
TERMINATIONS
1) M a i n t a i n   t h e   1 - 1 / 4 " 
clearances (air spaces) 
to combustibles when 
passing through ceilings, 
walls, roofs, enclosures, 
attic rafter, or other nearby 
combustible surfaces. 
Do not pack air spaces 
with insulation. Check 
section "Simpson Dura-
vent Flueing" for the 
maximum vertical rise of 
the fl ueing system and the 
maximum horizontal offset 
limitations.
2)  Set the gas appliance in its desired location. 
Drop a plumb bob down from the ceiling to the 
position of the appliance fl ue exit, and mark 
the location where the fl ue will penetrate 
the ceiling. Drill 
a small hole at 
his point. Next, 
drop a plumb 
bob from the 
roof to the hole 
previously drilled 
in the ceiling, 
and mark the 
s p o t   w h e r e 
t h e   f l u e   w i l l 
penetrate the 
roof. Determine 
if ceiling joists, 
roof rafters or 
other framing 
3)  A Firestop spacer must be installed in the 
fl oor or ceiling of every level. To install the 
Firestop spacer in a fl at ceiling or wall, 
cut a 10 inch square hole. Frame the hole 
as shown in Diagram 3 and install the 
fi restop.
4)  Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and  
elbows. Ensure that all pipes and elbow 
connections are in the fully twist-locked 
position and sealed.
5)  Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small 
drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The 
hole should be of suffi cient size to meet 
the minimum requirements for clearance 
to combustibles of 1-1/2". Slip the fl ashing 
under the shingles (shingles should overlap 
half the fl ashing) as per Diagram 4.

Diagram 4: The upper half of the fl ashing is 
installed under the roofi ng material and not 
nailed down until the chimney is installed. 
This allows for small adjustments.
6)  Continue to assemble pipe lengths.
Note:  If an offset is necessary in the attic 
to avoid obstructions, it is important 
to support the fl ue pipe every 3 feet, 
to avoid excessive stress on the 
elbows, and possible separation. 
 
Wall straps are available for this 
purpose (Diagram 2).
will obstruct the 
fl ueing system. You 
may wish to relocate the appliance or to 
offset, as shown in Diagram 2 to avoid cutting 
load bearing members.
