A complete system for the quick and easy installation of a chimney system that goes through a wall is the DuraVent 7" DuraTech Through-the-Wall Kit. Designed with durability and efficiency, this kit has all the necessary parts to guarantee a safe and code-compliant connection for your 7" DuraTech system in through-the-wall installations. Essential elements contained in this extensive package are:

1. 7" DuraTech Chimney Cap: As a defense barrier, the chimney cap keeps the chimney properly ventilated while preventing dirt, rain, and other outside forces from entering.

2. 7" DuraTech 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" DuraTech Chase Top Flashing: Water cannot enter the chimney's surrounding area as it goes through the chase top, thanks to the weatherproof barrier provided by the Chase Top Flashing. It protects the integrity of the chimney system and adds to the overall waterproofing of the roof.

4. 7" DuraTech Finishing Collar with Adapter: The finishing collar unites aesthetics and functions to guarantee a polished look where the chimney enters the wall, facilitating a smooth transition and improving the overall attractiveness.

5. 7" DuraTech 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.

6. 7" DuraTech Adjustable Tee Support Bracket: By supporting the tee, this bracket guarantees structural integrity and stability in the through-the-wall arrangement.

7. 7" DuraTech Wall Thimble: Wall thimbles maintain appropriate clearances and guarantee safety standards are followed by giving the chimney a fire-safe route through the wall.

8. 7" DuraTech Wall Strap: The wall strap ensures a strong connection and adherence to safety regulations, which gives the chimney additional support and stability as it goes through the wall.

How to Install a DuraTech Chimney Pipe Kit Through-the-Wall?

Choosing a Tee-Supported installation for your chimney is a smart, efficient choice that ensures safety and performance when passing through a wall. With the capability to support up to 60 feet of DuraTech Chimney, these installations are flexible and can be easily adjusted to fit your specific needs. The DuraTech Through-the-Wall Kit is available in 6-Inches, 7-Inches and 8-Inches. Here’s why you should consider this option and how to do it effectively:

Why Choose a Tee-Supported Installation?

• Maximum Support: Designed to hold substantial lengths of the chimney, Tee Supports provide the stability you need, ensuring your chimney system is secure and reliable.
• Adjustability: The various support components can be easily adjusted to fit your installation, making it a versatile solution for different home layouts.
• Enhanced Safety: Following the installation guidelines ensures compliance with safety regulations, protecting your home and family from potential hazards.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

1. Position Your Appliance: Start by placing your appliance according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the flue outlet collar is ideally positioned between rafters or joists above.
2. Cut and Frame Openings: Determine where your chimney will pass through the wall, ensuring it’s centered between two studs. Cut and frame openings in both the inner and outer walls for a secure fit.
3. Install the Wall Thimble: This crucial two-piece component includes both interior and exterior halves. Center the back portion in the framed opening on the outside wall and seal it with non-hardening waterproof sealant. Use at least four nails or screws for a secure attachment.
4. Install the Tee Support: Position the Tee Support so the chimney Tee is centered in the Wall Thimble. Verify that it's level and secure it to the wall with four screws on each side. Adjust the clearance as needed to ensure proper fit.
5. Install the Tee and Cleanout Section: Connect the Tee to a length of chimney designated as the cleanout section. Use the provided screws to tighten the connections and keep everything centered.
6. Attach the Chimney Branch: Inside your home, connect the Chimney Branch to the Tee, ensuring it extends at least 6 inches into the room. Use a high-temperature sealant to secure the connection with the Wall Thimble.
7. Install the Cover Plate and Finishing Collar: Slide the Cover Plate over the Chimney Branch and secure it with screws, ensuring proper alignment. Twist-lock the Finishing Collar into place for a neat finish.
8. Complete the Chimney: Secure the chimney sections together by twisting them clockwise. Use Wall Straps to anchor the chimney to the wall at intervals of no more than 8 feet, maintaining a 2-inch clearance from combustible materials.
9. Install Chase Top Flashing: For enhanced protection and aesthetics, consider enclosing your Tee-Supported Chimney in a chase. Use Chase Top Flashing for a lower profile and proper air-gap clearances, ensuring your installation is both functional and visually appealing.

By following these steps, you’ll ensure a safe, reliable, and efficient chimney installation that enhances the comfort of your home. With the added benefits of support and adjustability, Tee-Supported installations are the way to go for your chimney needs!
