WARNING:  To help insure proper draft and reduce fire hazard risks that can cause damage and/or loss of life, your chimney should terminate no less than fifteen feet above the floor on which the fireplace rests and the top of a wood burning fireplace chimney needs to be at least 2-feet above any structure (including any part of a roof) that is within 10 feet of the top of the chimney cap.  The chimney must not terminate less than 3-feet above where it exits the roof.  To avoid the risk of fire, always follow any applicable local codes and/or instructions that are furnished with a factory built zero-clearance fireplace and the Class A flue pipe.  If in doubt, refer to NFPA 211 Standards for Chimneys and Fireplaces.  If you are going through a overhead construction (e.g., ceiling and/or roof), you must maintain a minimum of 2 1/2" clearance to combustible materials all around the perimeter of 'Class A' chimney pipe from the point at which it exits the fireplace.
