How Tall Should A Smoke Stack Be Above The Roof

At least that s the deal with.

How tall should a smoke stack be above the roof.

I m going to run the vent pipe up above the roof line. Back to our example over a run of 10 feet the roof would rise 40 inches. Asked by wiki user. I used to have a flat roof on the house.

So take the top number of your roof pitch and multiply it by 10 then add 24 note example 1. How tall should a stack vent be above the roof line. The height of the chimney above the roof surface measured at the up slope side of the chimney from the roof surface to the chimney top should be at least three feet the green line in our photo. This is a bit of an odd measurement and chimney clearance case because the chimney side is actually about 8 away from the roof edge.

Additionally per our rule we need to add 2 feet or 24 inches giving us a total height of 64 inches. Stove burning only not as strong a smell and no smoke bellowing out of the stack. The stove pipe wasn t far above the top of the roof and wind blew smoke back into the house. I had the roof you see in the photos done in 1991.

Are clean out is inside because we have a 12 tall concrete wall to go over. I don t want to have to clean the soot off the cedar siding. Ihop that was helpful. The house has a walkout cellar.
