How to properly install a stainless steel chimney pipe
In short: Installing a wood-burning stove requires running a stainless steel pipe through your house and roof. This video demonstrates the precise assembly and sealing process required to ensure a safe, plumb, and weather-tight chimney installation.
The process involves snaking a stainless steel pipe through the home's interior and out through the roof. Once on the roof, the piping is assembled to a height of six feet, adjusted to match the specific pitch of the roof.
To ensure safety and longevity, experts focus on making sure the entire structure is plumb and centered. Every joint must be carefully sealed and the entire assembly must be securely fastened to the roof structure.
