2. 7" DuraPlus Storm Collar: The storm collar fortifies the chimney's barrier against inclement weather by adding another degree of protection and creating an airtight seal around it.
3. 7" DuraPlus Flashing: The flashing acts as a weatherproof barrier to stop water from penetrating the area around the chimney, enhancing overall waterproofing and maintaining the structural integrity of the chimney system.
4. 7" DuraPlus Tee with Cap: The tee with a cap makes it easier to reach the appliance for maintenance and permits appropriate venting. It also connects the chimney to the appliance.
5. 7" DuraPlus Tee Support Bracket: By supporting the tee, this bracket guarantees structural integrity and stability in the through-the-wall arrangement.
6. 7" DuraPlus Wall Thimble: Wall thimbles maintain appropriate clearances and guarantee safety standards are followed by giving the chimney a fire-safe route through the wall.

How to Install DuraPlus Chimney Pipe Kit Through the Wall?
DuraPlus Tee-supported installations are an ideal choice when venting your appliance through a wall to an external chimney. This method offers both safety and efficiency, ensuring your chimney system is secure, reliable, and compliant with building codes. Proper installation protects your home and guarantees the performance of your heating system. The DuraPlus Through the Wall Kit is available in 6-Inches, 7-Inches and 8-Inches. Follow these steps to achieve a professional and effective installation:
Why Opt for Tee-Supported Installations?
- Safe Ventilation: Directing the chimney through an exterior wall reduces the risk of heat buildup and ensures proper airflow, preventing potential hazards and enhancing the appliance’s efficiency.
- Durability and Compliance: Proper installation using the Tee-supported method ensures longevity and aligns with industry standards, giving you peace of mind.
- Versatility: This method accommodates various wall materials and structures, allowing for customized solutions to fit different building types and designs.
Step-by-Step Installation Guide
- Position the Appliance: Place the appliance according to its instructions.
- Cut and Frame the Opening: Cut a 14-1/4 inch diameter hole in both the inner and outer walls, aligning it with the appliance's flue outlet. If working with a new wall, frame the opening before adding wall coverings. For concrete or masonry, cut a 14-1/4 inch hole.
- Install the Wall Thimble:
- Insert the black part of the Wall Thimble from inside the room and align it with the studs. Don’t nail it yet.
- Attach the Tee to a 9-inch or 12-inch Chimney Section and insert it through the hole from outside until it's 2 inches from the outer wall.
- Ensure the female end of the Chimney Section connects fully inside the Wall Thimble. Once aligned, remove it and nail the black thimble section in place. If attaching to concrete, use masonry anchors.
- For garages, enclose the Tee-supported installation.
- Seal the Outside: Insert the galvanized part of the Wall Thimble from the outside and seal it with waterproof sealant. Fasten it with screws. Then, insert the Chimney Section with the Tee into the thimble. Note: Never use single-wall pipe through the thimble.
- Install Tee Support:
- Remove the screws and cap from the Tee.
- Attach the support straps to the wall using lag screws. Reattach the Tee Clean out Cap.
- Finish the Chimney:
- Add Chimney Sections and secure them with Wall Straps every 4 feet. Maintain at least a 2-inch clearance from combustible materials. Snap the Chimney Cap on top once it reaches the required height.
- If the chimney goes through an overhang, maintain a 2-inch clearance or install a Flashing and Storm Collar as described in ceiling installations. Use an Extended Roof Bracket if the chimney extends more than 4 feet above the top.
- Install the Chase Cover:
- For a chase enclosure, ensure a 1/2-inch air gap between the chase cover and framed chase top, as well as between the cover’s hole and Chimney Pipe Sections. These air gaps help ventilation.
- If using Flat Roof Flashing, keep the air spaces. When installing the Storm Collar, leave a small gap for airflow.
By following these steps and using the Tee-Supported installation method, you’re investing in a chimney system that is not only efficient but also up to code and built to last. A professional installation enhances the performance of your appliance and ensures the safety and comfort of your home for years to come. Don’t settle for anything less—choose the right installation and enjoy the benefits of a secure and reliable chimney system!
