D.  Locating Your Stove & Chimney
Location  of  the  appliance  and  chimney  will  affect  perfor-
mance.  As shown in Figure 27.1 the chimney should:
 
•  Install through the warm space enclosed by the build-
ing envelope. This helps to produce more draft, espe-
cially during lighting and die down of the fi re.
 
•  Penetrate the highest part of the roof.  This minimizes 
the affects of wind turbulence and down drafts.
 
•  Consider  the  appliance  location  in  order  to  avoid 
fl oor and ceiling attic joists and rafters.
 
• 
Locate  termination  cap  away  from  trees,  adjacent 
structures,  uneven  roof  lines  and  other  obstruc-
tions.
