The purpose of chimney pipe is to remove harmful byproducts of the combusted, or burned, fuel from inside your home. If the byproducts are not properly ventilated from inside the home, then you can have a dangerous buildup of carbon monoxide.

DuraPlus is designed to stay cool on the outside, to provide a hot draft on the inside, to boost stove efficiency, and to provide for a fire-safe design that protects both the chimney and the building. This triple-wall chimney features two insulating layers (ceramic blanket, plus airspace). The ceramic blanket insulation is held securely in position, eliminating hot spots common with loose fill type insulations. In the event of a creosote fire, the compressible blanket insulation permits the chimney liner to expand outwardly in a radial direction. Designed for normal, continuous operation at 1000° F flue gas temperatures, DuraPlus is subjected to rigorous and stringent HT requirements of the UL standard, including one hour at 1400° F, plus three ten minute chimney fire tests at 2100° F.

The 6" DuraPlus Cathedral Ceiling Support Kit is mobile home and manufactured home approved and specifically designed with the do-it-yourself installer in mind.

The 6" DuraPlus Cathedral Ceiling Support Kit contains all the components needed to install a 6" chimney (excluding black stove pipe and DuraPlus chimney sections) straight up through a cathedral ceiling.

How it works:

The chimney system allows your stove or fireplace to exhaust flue gases while a draft creates the draw that pulls fresh combustion air into the stove. A well-balanced system provides an even, hot fire when it has good draft. The draft suction keeps smoke from coming into the room. Insulation in the chimney pipe is important because it helps keep the exhaust hot until it is expelled outside. Heat in the chimney makes draft, which pulls in more combustion air. This creates a hotter fire, delivering more heat to the chimney, resulting in more draft. The size of the flue is important for the system to work efficiently. The appliance manufacturers installation instructions will indicate how to size the flue to match the stoves flue collar. Stovepipe connects to the stove. It is the usually black interior pipe that transitions from the stove to the chimney pipe with an adapter. It is not insulated and cannot penetrate ceilings or walls. Chimney pipe is an insulated pipe that is rated to pass through walls and ceilings. In addition to the chimney pipe, supports to hold the system in place, and shields to protect areas from combusting, are needed for the system. The flashing, storm collar and chimney cap are required to seal the system from moisture penetration.

All stove and chimney pipe are classified and categorized by the inside diameter. If you are not sure what size you need, measure the inside of your flue opening across inside to inside. If your measurement is 6" then you will purchase all 6" pipe for your installation. We offer DuraPlus in sizes 6", 7", and 8" Inside Diameter. Your outside diameter with DuraPlus will be 4" larger than the inside.

This kit includes the following: (from the cap down)

6" DuraPlus Rain Cap is required where chimney pipe terminates above the roof line. Removable screws allow for cleaning of the chimney and spark arrestor screen. Includes spark arrestor screen.

6" DuraPlus Aluminum Storm Collar is required for use on any through-the-roof installation using a roof flashing.

6" DuraPlus Ceiling Support Box is for use with flat, vaulted or cathedral ceilings. It supports up to 40' of chimney pipe with a built-in starter section. The Square Ceiling Support box features a sleek black finish to add pleasing aesthetics to the fully functional build.

6" DuraPlus Roof Flashings provide leak proof roof penetration. The purpose of the roof flashing is to weatherproof the roof where the chimney penetrates the roof. The flashing gets tucked under the shingles and the shingles are cut around the flashing if needed. The flashing is sealed to the roof with silicone to provide that needed seal to prevent water from getting under the flashing and getting into the attic or house, then a storm collar is placed over the flashing and sealed to the chimney pipe with a high temp silicone to prevent water from running down the chimney. There are several options to choose from depending on your requirements.

6" Stove Pipe Adapter is required to connect the stove pipe to the chimney pipe and there are several options to choose from depending on your requirements.

• Slip Connector - Item Number 6DBK-SC - Use to connect DuraBlack single wall stove pipe to the ceiling support box. Use the slip connector if you do not have any other adjustable stove pipe length between your stove and support box. This adapter will provide a 3" to 13" slip fitting without having to cut pipe for a perfect fit. Only connects to rigid DuraBlack stove pipe, and cannot be used with telescoping pipe lengths.

• DuraBlack Chimney Adapter - Item Number 6DVL-ADC - This adapter is recommended to connect DuraBlack single-wall stove pipe to DuraPlus or DuraTech chimney pipe if you do not require adjustability in your stove pipe height. You can also use this adapter to connect DVL double-wall stove pipe to DuraPlus or DuraTech chimney.

• Snap Lock Adapter - Item Number 6DBK-ADSL - Snaps into your ceiling support box or finishing collar and extends down to fit into the stovepipe. Provides a drip-free connection to DuraTech, DuraPlus, DuraPlus HTC chimney pipe, or DuraLiner chimney liner.

• DVL Adapter - Item Number 6DVL-ADT - Use to connect from double-wall DVL to DuraTech, DuraPlus, DuraPlus HTC, and DuraLiner for a through-the-wall or ceiling support installation. Required for proper connection. Provides a strong mechanical connection. Painted black.
