Superior 8DM Complete Venting Kit for Chimney Chase Installations

If the chimney has no offsets and is enclosed in a chase, you will need no additional support, other than the unit and firestops.

These kits range in available lengths from 9' 8" to 29' 2". 

That kit would come with four 48 inch sections of pipe.

No.  This kit is designed to attach directly to the top of fireplaces that require this chimney venting.

This kit does not include a chase top cover, and that would indeed need to be fabricated and supplied locally.

We would recommend chimney support for this length, depending on the fireplace model you are venting.

If you are enclosing the chimney above the roof in a box out (chase) then, no, the flashing would not be used.

We're sorry, no. The TFC36 used the 82xxD chimney system, which is no longer available. The current Superior 8DM system will not connect.

This can not be used with a pellet stove insert.

The interior kit offers the option for a pitched roof flashing to cover the pipe penetration above the roof, whereas the exterior chase kit does not include a flashing as you will need to have a customized chase top flashing made based on the dimensions of your chase opening.

This kit does not come packaged in one box. It would be individual pieces.

If you are running the pipe up the side of your house, you will need to have it boxed in, as exposure to the cold will cause draft issues. The pipe is only available in a silver color.

While this will not work for your unit, we do have access to the SK8 pipe that is compatible with your fireplace.

Unfortunately, we do not have a framing sketch for installation of a chase for this pipe, but we can tell you that the outside diameter of the pipe is 12 3/8" and you need a 2" clearance / air space around the outside of the pipe to combustibles. Firestops are required for any physical penetration through ceilings or floors, but also in conjunction with level changes in the home (in line with first-to-second floor transition, second floor to attic, etc.), even when there is no penetration. There is no vertical support from the firestops, only lateral support.

No, it would not. This is a chimney system that is exclusively rated and tested for a superior wood fireplace.

Unfortunately, this kit may not be used with any wood stove or insert as it air-cooled and lacks any actual insulation to counteract the higher flue temperatures produced by a wood stove or insert. Chimney of this type is tested and listed for safe use only with certain prefabricated wood burning fireplaces manufactured by FMI/Superior . The Buck Stove model you currently own may be vented either as a freestanding wood stove with single or double wall black stovepipe starting at the stove and transitioning to insulated class A chimney via a support box framed in at ceiling level, or as a fireplace insert with stainless steel flexible chimney liner listed to UL1777 for relining masonry chimneys. The latter would require an existing fully-functional wood burning fireplace opening and corresponding masonry or manufactured chimney.

Yes.
