Model TLC
All-Fuel Chimney - 5" to 8" Installation Instructions
Hart & Cooley, Inc.
The bottom chimney length(s) must protrude into the
living space so that proper clearances are maintained
from the stovepipe connector to the lower side of the
ceiling. For proper clearances, refer to Chart 3 -
Connector Pipe Clearance Below Cathedral Support
on page 18 of these instructions.
Install additional chimney sections and lock together by
turning clockwise until the two sections lock together
tightly. Continue in this manner until the required height
above the roof is achieved.
Chimney sections (15 meet maximum) installed below the
cathedral ceiling support are locked together from below
by turning clockwise until slightly locked together, with
each joint being secured by a locking band. These
lengths can be painted to match the connector pipe by
simply painting with a high-temperature, heat-resistant
paint. To improve adhesion to the Model TLC chimney,
degrease, clean, and prime before painting. Follow the
paint manufacturer’s instructions.
Roof Support Installation
The roof support may be used on a floor, ceiling or roof, and
adjusts to any roof pitch. It may be used above an offset to
support the offset or as a supplementary support when the
chimney height exceeds that of the primary support.
The roof support will support a total height of 50 feet of
chimney sections. All chimney sections must be secured
with locking bands.
Attach the support brackets to the support band with the
½" nuts, bolts and lock washers. The lock washer is
placed between the band and support bracket to provide
proper spacing as shown in Figure 22.
Slide the roof support down over the chimney section until its
brackets rest on the roof or floor. Tighten the collar around
the chimney with the nuts and bolts supplied, then secure the
collar by screwing the six supplied sheet metal screws
through the holes in the collar and into the chimney.
Center the chimney in the joist or rafter opening. Ensure
that the 2-inch required airspace clearance is met. Nail or
screw the support to the roof or floor, using the 12 x 3½"
spiral nails supplied or twelve #8 x 1¼" wood screws.
Install additional chimney sections and lock together by
turning clockwise until the two sections lock together tightly.
Continue in this manner until the desired height is achieved.
Note: The male coupler of each chimney length must be up.
Rafter Radiation Shield Installation
A rafter radiation shield must be installed where the
chimney is enclosed immediately below the roof line as
shown in Figure 26. An example of this is when the attic
space of a house is being used as living space
(i.e., bedroom, guestroom, etc.). It must also be installed
when height restrictions will not allow the use of the attic
insulation shield, and the chimney has been enclosed with
an enclosure around the chimney.
Attach the support brackets to the shield (through one of
the three prepunched holes), such that once the shield is
installed the shield protects both the upper and lower
parts of the roof joist framing. See Figures 23 and 26.
Roof Flashing Installation
Ensure that you have the proper roof flashing by checking
your roof pitch, using a level and two rulers (Figure 24) or
by using a roof pitch card.
The AAF Roof Flashing is for roof pitches from 0/12 to 6/12.
The AF2 Roof Flashing is for roof pitches from 6/12 to 12/12.
